Precious Peplums

March 13, 2012

1) Green peplum dress (ASOS)    2) Green peplum top (ASOS)  

3) Black peplum dress (desireclothing.co.uk)

4) Purple peplum dress (Alice an Olivia)   5) Purple peplum skirt (Alice and Olivia)

Good Morning everyone!  I absolutely adore peplums!  To me, a peplum adds such a feminine touch to an outfit.

I think a solid peplum top would look precious with a pair of floral or patterned cropped pants and some closed toe wedges or pointed toe heels.  When it comes to skirts with peplums I would stick to fitted tops and tailored blouses to prevent from taking the spotlight away from the peplum.   For peplum dresses all you need is a pair of sky high platform heels and a clutch and you’re all set!

I own dress #1 on the style board above and also a classic black peplum dress with an open back.  I will eventually post photos to show how I styled the both of those dresses so keep a look out!  Until then see “Fashion Forward Monday” to see how I still the Mackage dress with the removable peplum.  Also, I apologize that I still don’t have the photos from the last shoot, but Max has been quite busy lately.  However, he has assured me that he’ll have them to me as soon as he can!

My Current Wish List…

March 1, 2012

Row 1: tan wedges (Dolce Vita), teal suede pumps (Steve Madden), melon suede wedges (Dolce Vita)

Row 2: purple skirt w/ peplum (Alice and Olivia), pink denim (DL1961),  Minnie cropped pants (J. crew),

turquoise denim (DL1961)

Row 3: all three pairs of these shorts are from J. Crew

Row 4: sea foam high/low dress (LOVE), pleated jumpsuit (ASOS), pastel pleated dress (ERIN)

Hello everyone!  These are all of the items I’m currently loving.  I would tell you which one of these items is my favorite, but I can’t even decide!!  If I really had to choose it would be between the melon Dolce Vita wedges and the sea foam high low dress.  I just love both of those colors!  Although, I also really like the peplum skirt!  A peplum adds so much flare to an outfit! What is on your current wish list?

P.S.  I’m currently trying to figure out how to add a Pin It button to my share bar, but I haven’t quite figured out how just yet.  Please let me know if you have any tips!

Have a wonderful day!
