In this blog post, we'll dive into the art of styling a mesh romper, sharing tips and tricks to help you create chic ensembles that turn heads wherever you go.

1. Accessorizing for Effortless Chic

Accessorizing a mesh romper by Maui x Lolita can be a fun and creative process. Mesh rompers are often versatile and stylish pieces, and adding the right accessories can elevate your look. Here are some ideas to help you accessorize your mesh romper:
Statement Jewelry: Since a mesh romper tends to be relatively simple, statement jewelry can really make it pop. Consider wearing a chunky necklace, oversized earrings, or bold bracelets to add a touch of glam to your outfit.
Belt: If the romper comes with a loose or unstructured fit, adding a belt can accentuate your waist and create a more defined silhouette. Choose a belt that complements the romper's color and style.
Strappy Sandals: Since a mesh romper often has a breezy and summery feel, pair it with some stylish strappy sandals. Opt for metallic or neutral colors to keep the focus on the romper.
Clutch or Crossbody Bag: Depending on the occasion, choose a clutch or crossbody bag to complete your ensemble. Select a bag that matches the overall vibe of your outfit and is large enough to carry your essentials.
Hats: Hats can add a touch of sophistication or playfulness to your look.

2. Shoe Selection for Every Occasion

When choosing shoes to complement a mesh romper, you'll want to opt for styles that match the romper's vibe while providing comfort and functionality. Here are some shoe options that can go well with a mesh romper:

  1. Strappy Sandals: Strappy sandals are a classic and versatile choice that complements the breezy and summery feel of a mesh romper. Whether you go for flat sandals or ones with a slight heel, they can add a touch of elegance to your outfit.

  2. Espadrille Wedges: If you're looking to elevate your look while still keeping it casual and comfortable, espadrille wedges are an excellent option. They provide some height and style without being too dressy.

  3. Slip-On Sneakers: For a more laid-back and sporty vibe, slip-on sneakers are a great choice. They add a touch of casual coolness and work well for daytime outings or casual gatherings.

  4. Mules: Mules offer a trendy and chic option for dressing up your mesh romper. They are easy to slip on and come in various styles, from flat to block heels, depending on your preference.

  5. Ankle Boots: If you're wearing the mesh romper in cooler weather or want to add a touch of edginess to your look, ankle boots can be a stylish choice. Opt for booties with a low heel for comfort and versatility.

  6. Chunky Heeled Sandals: Chunky-heeled sandals can provide a mix of comfort and style. They add a little height while still being suitable for various occasions.

  7. Gladiator Sandals: Gladiator sandals can add a touch of drama and intrigue to your outfit. They work well with rompers that have a bohemian or festival-inspired aesthetic.

When choosing the shoe color, consider the color of our rompers. Neutral colors like nude, white, or black are always safe bets, but you can also experiment with complementary colors or metallics depending on your personal style and the overall look you want to achieve.

3. Cover Up or go Full Sheer?

Wearing one of our signature cover-ups or full sheers over a mesh romper can be a stylish and practical option, especially when you want some extra coverage or want to create a layered look. Here are some ideas for cover-ups or sheer pieces that can complement a mesh romper:

  1. Kimono Cover-Up: Maui x Lolita's kimono-style cover-up with a sheer or lightweight fabric can add a bohemian and flowy touch to your mesh romper. It provides coverage while still allowing the mesh romper's details to peek through.

  2. Sheer Duster Jacket: Opt for a sheer duster jacket that matches the length of your romper or slightly longer. This adds an elegant and sophisticated layer to your outfit and can be a great choice for evening events or cooler weather.

  3. Mesh Tunic: If you want to play with textures, consider a mesh tunic as a cover-up. It can create a visually interesting-layered effect while still maintaining the sheer aesthetic.

  4. Sheer Maxi Cardigan: A sheer maxi cardigan is a chic option for added coverage. It flows gracefully with the mesh romper and offers a relaxed yet put-together look.

  5. Beach Sarong: For a beach or poolside look, a sheer sarong tied around your waist can be a stylish cover-up option. It's lightweight and easy to take off when you're ready to hit the water.

  6. Crochet Cover-Up: A crochet cover-up can add texture and boho charm to your mesh romper. Look for one with an open knit pattern to maintain the sheer and airy feel.

When choosing a cover-up or sheer layer, consider the color and style that complements your mesh romper. Neutral colors like white, beige, or black can easily blend with any romper color, while prints and patterns can add a pop of personality to your ensemble. Additionally, ensure that the cover-up enhances the overall look and doesn't overpower the mesh romper's unique design.

4. Wait...What Did I Just Read? (conclusion)

 When deciphering looks you want to create with our Mesh Rompers be sure to consider accessorizing with a display of chic, a great shoe to complement elegance and add a dash of glam with one of our cover-ups or a full sheer for a finishing touch.
