Pretty Pretty Peplums

Today's FASHION FIXATION du jour is a trend thats making a mah-jor comeback this season: The Peplum.  A peplum is a short, often ruffled or pleated, overskirt that is attached at the waist of dresses, skirts, tops or jackets. Though they have not been seen for some time peplums have been gracing the waistlines of fashionable women recently in record numbers. Everyone from royals to Real Housewives are rocking this spring statement.

A 21st Century take on the peplum is showing it on tops or jackets instead of simply skirts or dresses. This flattering addition is perfect for different body types and different styles! Also on a blouse or jacket it can be worn with jeans to dress it down a it for a more casual look.
