How do you wear that Peplum top?

So yesterday it was 82 Degrees in the Tri-state area a perfect day for a spring inspired outfit post.

Lately I have been seeing the Peplum Top everywhere its absolutely gorgeous and creates a nice silhouette to any figure. There is a super long history behind it as well. 1947 is the year that the craze of the Peplum began and with no other than Dior behind this extravaganza. It was part of the “New Look” silhouette that took to the spotlight of a woman’s waist, it was structured, feminine and most of all elegant. Here is a snap of vintage Dior: NEW LOOK Peplum, so classy. Now check out +Chiara Ferragni in this updated version from her collaboration shoot with DIOR, she looks so fab! 

The peplum top can be worn with any bottom. I mainly have been seeing it with the Pencil Skirt which looks cute but when everyone is wearing it, it becomes a cult like situation if you know what I mean. Also when choosing a peplum top you have to be a bit careful with the type of peplum you choose. There are so many other ways to wear this beauty and if your a mother like me you need to be very strategic on how and what type of peplum top you should be rocking. I mean lets face it after you have a kid no matter how much you hit the gym things just aren't the same anymore. So if you need a bit of coverage high-waisted bottoms are a must with a peplum. To Draw Attention away from your waist try a top where the peplum starts above your stomach. Low sitting peplums do tend to emphasize on the waist and direct the entire silhouette of the mid-section. Here are few peplum tops you can choose whether you need coverage or not that I thought were super cute. Vince Camuto makes this gorgeous cap sleeve peplum top! The Lace is a great touch and is a great trend this season. Definitely can be purchased at +Nordstrom. And of course Since I LOVE BLACK I had to add one and post an outfit on black and white as well. Check out this PEPLUM from Vivienne a UK Based designer. Love the spikes! Notice the difference in the Peplum length and placement on the garment!

A Peplum top is a great way to add a feminine touch to any outfit. Here is how I styled my look. A faux Leather Peplum top from +Forever 21, with a higher peplum of course. The white straight leg trousers are from BEBE. And as you know I am an avid bag collector so I want to welcome my new Chanel Wonder from the Spring 2013 collection. Post up about this bag soon. For my accessories: A +Juicy Couture Jewel Watch, +BCBGMAXAZRIA Perforated medal and leather strap bracelet, and my Tiffany Charm Bracelet, Tiffany for my necklace as well! For my shoes I paired this outfit with gorgeous +GUESS gray suede pointy pumps! So comfy! And of course its Spring so when the chill sets in I always have my Jewel Collared House of Sadia Silk Jacket! Check out our Gorgeous model Ifey rocking the jacket with some shorts SO VERSATILE! When Pairing Black and White always focus the black in areas you need to camouflage the most!  Happy PEPLUM SHOPPING A CLASSIC YOU MUST HAVE IN YOUR CLOSET!
