Look 3: Casual Peplum Style For Everyday Wear
When we think of peplum we instantly think party or special occasions because this trend is generally associated with dressier style.
Yet this far from the truth! Peplum is great for everyday office wear to casual weekend attire; you can even throw on a peplum top with your denim shorts to hit the beach if you want to! The possibilities are endless so get creative!
Dressing down the peplum is perhaps my favourite way to wear the trend because it’s the least predictable; it still has that element of surprise, which is harder to come by now that the style has become so big this season.
*The easiest way to achieve daytime casual with peplum is by teaming it with denim.
So if you already have that super chic peplum top in your wardrobe try mixing it with denim this weekend to see how you go!
