Meet the Flinstones

I couldn't wait to do a shoot at my favorite hometown location, The Flinstone House. It is such a unique and fun home!


I have been weary about jumping onto the trendy romper bandwagon. In a lot of ways I think that if they aren't cut right, they can make people look shorter and heavier. As a someone who is petite, I simply avoided rompers because I thought that unless I was super tall and skinny I could never wear them right.


Recently, I was in one of my favorite local boutiques and reluctantly tried on a romper that one of the sales girls suggested for me. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked the cut, and I was instantly sold.


This romper works specifically for a small frame because it is cut right in the middle of one's waist. Lower-waisted rompers can cut off the length of a petite body, making a person's torso look super long while making their legs look shorter. In contrast, high-waisted rompers can be very unflattering from behind, causing a person's butt look oddly elongated. Basically, like any trend, rompers can look great when done well--so choose wisely!
