#OOTD Peplum Stripes

 Top: Innocence Via New Look | Shorts: Topshop Tall (Old) | Cardigan: H&M | Necklace: Rock'n'Rose | Tights: Primark | Toothpastey Towl: Model's Own

I adore this little ensemble, it's so easy to throw on and is insanely comfortable but also looks super chic and like i've made loads of effort (read: i haven't). I never thought i would, but i'm loving the peplum style tops and am on the hunt for some others - maybe in different prints, or plain to wear with pattern skirts. The style is simple but flattering and goes with a surprising amount of contrasting styles.


The one problem i have with this top is that with the peplum style comes with quite a high pinched waist, meaning that when worn with lower rise bottoms - like jeans and low rise short/skirts - if it's windy or rides up, when walking, you flash a bitta skin, which isn't really my cuppa tea, so i combat that by pairing it with a high waist pair of shorts. I have worn it with low rise jeans and a cami underneath which works equally well, but is a little less clean lined.


With a pop of cardigan colour and my Rock 'n' Rose necklace, this simple outfit just seems easy and styled.
