I just bought a whole bunch of stuff that I'm not confident will work out.

I was comfortable buying this much stuff purely because I was confident that most of it would get returned. Now I'm panicking because what if I really like it all?! You guys will have to help me make some painful decisions!
Some background:
I tried on a couple of rompers yesterday at a consignment store and they all had the same issue: being made for people who are much taller and longer-waisted than I am. The waist on both of them hit me at the hip bone, and the crotch seams were unintentionally harem-y. I'm hoping the ASOS one will work out, since it is described as high-waisted. Both the romper and the shorts are my attempt at introducing something other than dresses into my summer wardrobe. I love frocks but I have to admit I did get tired of wearing them every single day last year.
The hat is a tossup because most hats are too big for me, although I hope it works out because it's just what I have been looking for.
Shoes are always hit or miss. I just consigned a bunch of flats because they were all too similar (black, round toe), so hopefully these will add some variety. I've learned not to hold my breath, though. Yes, I even bought a pair of BEIGE flats. They looked more cream in the picture, so hopefully they are similar in real life.
Really hoping the shirt and shorts work out though. I thought they'd look cute together. Especially with the hat.
Stay tuned :p
