Exaggeration is Necessary...

 

I know I can't be the ONLY one that can never have too much Peplum. I think I have peplum tops in almost every color. I have it on dresses and in skirts. It just flatters my body so much.

In all my peplum pieces, I can't say that I have one like this particular top.

The cascading exaggerated side detailing just gives it such a luxurious and couture type feel

And like all peplum, it has the versatility to be dressed up or down (in my case I went for casual).

Not that it isn't uber fashionable on it's own but I had to add my little elements to make it mine. The belt gives it a edgy layer and the cat ears just brings this all together for me.

When I love something, I tend to get it in a multitude of colors. Luckily for me, it comes in a few.

Caped Crusader!

 

This is one trend I can't get enough of! Anything "Caped" gives me life!
 I was extremely stoked when I found this BEAUTIFUL Caped Blazer at one of Miami's hidden gem boutiques [Gitionline.com]. I jumped on it immediately. The print kind of puts me in the mind of the vintage Versace Print that Tupac used to Rock. And when something reminds me of Tupac, I instantly jump on it. Another great feature of this coat/jacket is that it is longer than most that I've seen. Most are waist length. This one is hip length.

 

I chose to keep the jacket as the focal point and muted everything else out with Black Accompaniments. The One-Piece body suit and High Black Boots were a perfect pairing.

Stop! Harem Time

Remember back in the 90's when MC Hammer dominated the charts?? With his amazing dance moves and his overly exaggerated harem pants??? Back then, I wanted to wear those pants so bad but never was allowed to. (Don't ask me why?? I honestly can't call it)

But Yeah, this jumper took me back to that time. Same concept but different execution! lol. Plus the harem isn't balloon like and overly pronounced. It's subtle.

 This harem jumpsuit is the single most comfortable piece of clothing I own. I usually try to steer away from jumpsuits, because most of them give me the kangaroo look. And that is not pretty. But I think the exaggerated hips does something wonderful for my body type. I purchased this warily but now, I'm on the search for everything HAREM!!

 

I honestly think this is a look that flatters ALOT of body types. The best thing about it is you don't need shapewear for it to be flattering and you can wear it cinched or un-cinched at the waist.

 

A lot of stories are popping up with this style of jumpsuit lately and I'm so happy they are. It comes in a variety of colors and the bottom of the pants change with each designer as well. Loads of options.
