NWR: Jumpers?

Bride_to_be_2011

Do you like this trend? Personally I don't haha. I see them sold in stores all the time! I never see anyone sporting them.

I've been in England too long, I thought you meant sweaters.  

So jumpers are making a come back?  When I became a teacher I told my freinds to shoot me if I started wearing them, esp if they came from LL Bean.

i tried these one, but Ifelt like a Fly Girl from In Living Color.

THey are are tres 1993 to me.

LOL yea jumpers are sweaters over there

I think they only belong on little kids! I seen them in almost every store. H&M, Target and Kohls.... they are just ridiculous looking.

SIKE!  (figure I'd throw in another throwback)

At 5'8" and not thin, these trends usually look stupid on me.

Last time I wore one I was about 12 and my mom made me do it.  Never again.

I used to wear the ones that tied on the shoulder when I was 6... they had stripes on them. I don't know how I remember them that vividly since I can't remember what I did last week.

I'm so lame, I have NO idea what you are all talking about.   Overalls?

Bride_to_be_2011

Kinda.. they are one piece outfits

Jumper, jumpsuit and rompers are all pretty much the same, I guess. I really hate the long pant ones! So ugly.

caraellen23

I really don't think they are flattering on anyone.  Tyra wore them all season of Top Model this year and she looked ridiculous.

Bride_to_be_2011

I just don't understand why people wouldn't just wear shorts and a tank top. That is pretty much what they are... just in one piece and shorts and a tank would look better.

I can't stand them because a lot of the time they look like dresses when they are on the rack, so I keep getting tricked into thinking I found a cute dress until I discover they are really rompers/jumpers/jumpsuits.

Bride_to_be_2011

LOL ditto Rachel! I am like oooo thats cute... until I get closer.

caraellen23

Related topic.... I hate everything in my closet and plan on shopping for new clothes this weekend. I'd love to get some cute summer dresses for work and play.  I don't have any.  Where do you all recommend??

Bride_to_be_2011

I love the tank style dresses at Target, they have some cute dresses right now. I also love Kohls for dresses. I just bought 2 a couple weeks ago.

I also just got some cute denim skirt at Gap last week. Great tank tops also!

Old Navy cotton dress'.

Marshall's, Ross and TJ Maxx. Dresses are my weakness.

Bride_to_be_2011

Ditto those stores! I love ROSS! I go there all the time to kill time with the kid I watch. It is the best store. CHEAP as hell too!

Jesster153

haha I see those jumpers all over stores too....I think I would look horrible in those and shorter than I already am (which is already barely 5'2..so yeaa.... haha)

Target had some cute summery dresses....as well as some plaid rompers if you're interested

caraellen23

Thanks! I can't do Ross, I get crazy overwhelmed.  I hate shopping and can't do department stores either.  Someone just point me to a rack with exactly what I'm looking for at a price I can afford, please!

Bride_to_be_2011

Cara- I wish someone could do that for me as well! But I can't go to Ross when I am in a rush, so that is why I go to kill time while working. I also can't go there when I have something specific in mind because it will be like finding a needle in a haystack.

nicole8586

It is overwhelming but since it is summer the dress racks should be front and center! Does that help any?

caraellen23

Nicole, that does help, thanks! I'd have to go to Ross first though, while I'm fresh. haha

Bride_to_be_2011

Good plan!

debnchris

ummmm yeah no adult should wear something called a "romper" least not in my book -- my 9y/o wouldnt wear it i'll tell ya that RIGHT now!

taccoten

Uh ohhhhhhhhhhh I have rompers!!!  I love them.  I got a tan linen one last year and I love it!  I can't believe no one else likes them!  They are adorable!
