It is no secret that I LOVE print mixing, so when I recently got my hand on this gorgeous minimal window print romper from Zara I was torn since it was so beautifully minimal and seemed to lend itself to a like minded outfit. Fortunately or unfortunately the beautiful pattern play between this Finders Keepers vest and the romper was just too good to resist so the minimal theme went out the window.

With summer creeping to a close I find myself digging through my closet trying to get as much wear of my purely summer pieces as possible and this romper is one of those pieces. I chose the vest to pair back with it due to its lack of sleeves and very summery print but the best part in my opinion is the similar hem lengths. The cocoon structure of the vest with just a peek of flowy short underneath is so fun and creates a great deal of interest regardless of which side you are viewing the look from. The balance of the unstructured romper with the more rigid vest seemed to complement both pieces and allow for a lot of leg which is one of my favorite parts of summertime: no need to dress for warmth.
