Peplum Style blouses

Hello and welcome, thanks for stopping by my blog!

Peplum styles have been having a bit of a fashion comeback

for the past few seasons, as part of the Y2K renaissance

 I remember this style had a more recent comeback in the 2010's as well,

in more polished business and business-casual wear

Are you a fan of the peplum?  

 I have noticed some very dramatic peplum silhouettes recently, a lot in formal wear,

 on fancy dresses and gowns, as well as on more casual pieces,

so I think this style will be on the fashion radar for a while 

The tops pair very nicely with high waisted pants and skirts, too

The two blouses I am wearing this week are soft and casual, and very easy to wear

Both looks are in predominantly summery shades of blue and white

For my first outfit, I am styling a blouse I wore earlier this season

 in a post about another current fashion trend, the square neckline

This time I paired the top with my favorite high waisted white denim jeans

I chose some fun, lighthearted and colorful jewelry to compliment this outfit 

A turquoise expansion bracelet, and two special vintage pieces

A silver plated butterfly necklace from the 1970's,

and a pair of 3-D aqua enamel flower shaped earrings with rhinestone centers from the 50's

Carrying a turquoise bag, for another pop of fun summer color!

Wearing a yummy color turquoise silk scarf in my hair

White block heel braided band sandals to finish the outfit

A different outfit in mostly white with blue with touches of coral

The top is a soft ivory color with fluttery cap sleeves

 and a drawstring tie waist forming the peplum

Worn with a stylized floral print skirt of turquoise, mint green and white

 with touches of coral 

Aqua and mint green are such quintessential summer colors,

so I chose three pieces of jewelry in these shades to complement this look

and the colors in the skirt 

A necklace of irregular chunky pieces of faux turquoise,

a pair of aqua flower shaped earrings and silver tone and mint enamel bangle bracelet 

 

This bag doesn't get much use,

so this seemed like the perfect outfit to get it out of the closet

It coordinates so well with the coral in my skirt and hair scarf

A much loved vintage scarf with an exotic bird and flower print

that belonged to my grandmother in my hair

Tan and white gingham check fabric mules to finish the outfit

A sunflower for you!

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer and the week!
