Black and Blue
A few weeks back, I was invited to visit one of my all-time favorite stores, Planet Blue, for an early morning shopping trip (which they featured on their blog here). I thumbed through lacy tops, flowy dresses and sparkly skirts, but ended up deciding on this slinky romper. It’s made of silk so it’s wonderfully drapy and the open back is an unexpected and seductive touch. I wore it out to dinner last night and almost felt guilty for how comfortable it was, but moved past that as soon as I realized how lovely an elastic waist can be after several plates of pasta.

open backs are so sexy.. a great way to show off skin, without showing off skin.

i love this piece! elastic waists are a must when eating big meals!! there is nothing worst than having to undo the top button of your tight jeans after a big meal…i’ve definitely been guilty of this!
I love the back of it!

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Very lovely. For some reason I would expect a piece like this to be a little “risque” but you are so classy that it looks classic and beautiful on you. So very pretty.
So sensual – what a great piece to add to your collection!
OMG elastic waistbands rock my world, hahah.
That back is gorgeous- great buy!
You’re gorgeous!

I love that!!
you look beautiful. I love how it has the open back.
simply gorgeous. i love anything with an open back. such a great draping.
The back really makes the romper special!! So casually-sexy!
CUTE! This cut is going to be my favorite for fall, I just know it. Dresses like these got me through the first several months of my pregnancy seamlessly, and now that I’m in the home stretch I can’t wait to slip one on my post-pregnant body. I only wish there were a Planet Blue in NYC!
Gorgeous, but would love to see it more clearly. The lighting is sorta dark! Show more photos later please =)

This was love at first sight for me…and then I clicked on the link and found out it’s called the “Adriana romper”–what a perfect fit.
How gorgeous… and practical! Love the back.

This looks so hot, the open back is such an adorable surprise!!!
That is super sexy. But elastic is better at accommodating plates of pasta than a belt.

yummy jumper.
I’ve been reading your blog for a long time and I’m often inspired by your gorgeous and classy taste in clothes and everything fashion. This post, and all of your others about food, are even ten times more inspirational to me. You are a gorgeous woman with an enviable body, yet you talk healthily about food and eating, and it’s so refreshing. It’s so hard for young women (like me) these days to forge a healthy relationship with food. Coming from a girl who has struggled with this for a long time, just wanted to thank you for the help you provide perhaps even unknowingly. I will be a devoted reader for a long time to come!
I LOOOOOOOVE it!! It’s stunning and I particularly love when you can look fabulous and be comfy at the same time!
Seriously alluring with that open vent in the back. It’s lovely.
great dress, love ur nyc pics posted below!!

love the openness in the back–there’s something about rompers that are childlike, yet kind of feel seductive on. at least that’s how i feel in them! ; )

Wow, I love the back!
What a gorgeous dress! It looks stunning – especially that back detail!
So gorgeous. I love black rompers! (or almost any color for that matter!)

Love when you can easily throw somthing on, be comfortable and still look elegant too!
