Remix Monday: Black and White Peplum

I have a bunch of photos sitting around in my “To Be Blogged” folder.  Shameless, I know.  Nonetheless, I’ve dusted off a couple for you today! (And if I get my act together, I will have a few more for you in the next week or so!)

Today, I’m featuring my black and white striped peplum top two ways.  (PS- not sure if peplum is considered an “old trend” now or not.  Regardless, I don’t care.  I think it looks super cute and I am still rockin’ it.  Who’s with me?!)

The first way I wore it was earlier this summer—the day my intern and I were twinsies with literally the same outfit.  There was a reception at a restaurant/bar that afternoon so I wanted something that was fun and not too business-like.

  Full post/outfit details here.

Then, I wore the outfit with a pencil skirt and blazer to make it a bit more professional:

You can definitely layer over peplum, but then you lose the cool effect of the ruffles.  That’s why I love wearing peplum in the summer so you can take off your top layer and still look presentable at work:

Then, I wore the top yet again featuring my white denim and added a pop of color with a blazer over it.  It was definitely a more relaxed day in the office (in fact, I recall it was one of our intern’s last days):

So there you have it.  Black and white peplum remixed a few different ways…from cubicle to cocktails!

Which look is your favorite?
