The Life Of A Romper

Rompers are hot and trending this summer and there is a good reason for it.  Most of you have to agree with me that the romper a.k.a. play suit is the easiest and most comfortable piece of summer clothing a girl can ask for. When it comes down to summer wear, I am a total skirt and dress type of gal, but rompers are just as fabulous because of their comfort and effortless vibe.

When we arrived here on the Kei Islands in Indonesia, I was totally bummed that I brought along only one romper with me. “I will buy tons of new rompers on the island” was my brilliant idea. Think traveling light right?  Big mistake, because wearing anything else just seemed not comfortable in this heat we’ve been dealing with here. Hopping into town in a desperate search and grab a few more rompers ended up with no luck and quite some frustration. They just don’t make these fabulous pieces of clothing on this island. The result is me wearing this colorful number almost everyday making everyone think I didn’t bring enough summer outfits with me. Going to the beach, going shopping in town, in and around the house, this piece was on me like a lifeguard against the sweltering heat.

This particular day, we went cruising on our rental scooter and drove to a beautiful remote beach near the village: Ohoidertawun on the north side of the island. White sands and crystal clear waters. This stunning beach is every travelers wet dream. Can I stay here forever?
