Spring 2012: 8 Trends to Look for & Buy Now #2

This is part two of an ongoing series to get you thinking about buying some pieces now that will surely be hot trends for Spring. Enjoy and be sure to comment and let me know if there is a trend you’d like to hear more about.

Spring 2012 Must Have #2: The Peplum

The Spring 2012 Runway was abundant with peplum looks including feminine styles from Jason Wu (keep in mind, his Target Collaboration is out February 5), and from Cushnie et Ochs, with their more edgier take.

Asos Peplum Skirt

 The peplum is a classic in my view. I have pieces ranging from dresses to leather t-shirt styles and I love how they accent the waist. They are always a great style to belt and I love the tops paired with skinny trousers.

What to Buy and What to Wear.

Whether you decide to wear a Peplum top like this adorable Alice + Oliva top , a Peplum Skirt like this Asos version or a full on Peplum dress (I love the leather details on this Cynthia Steffe), I encourage you to bring at least one peplum element into your Spring closet.

Even a jacket or blazer with a Peplum detail is a simple way to way the trend at work over a dress or with trousers. I love this Printed Peplum Blazer from Suno with it’s small print pattern – great for wearing with other prints and colors of the season.

 I  hope you  will give this trend a try and somehow in corporate it into your closet for Spring.
