Pretty Peplum

April 9, 2015

Skirt The Rules // Floral Peplum Top

Allow me to introduce you to my new favorite top.  After an excruciatingly long winter of layers on layers, it feels like a breath of fresh air wearing this pretty peplum top.  It’s floral and flowy — I couldn’t ask for a better combination.  I paired it with skinny jeans and leopard flats for an easy casual look.  Signs of spring are upon us … and behind us!  Just look at those tulip buds in the background waiting to blossom!  Shop more of my favorite peplums below and get these sunglasses on sale for 25% off today only!

Maxi & Moto

Skirt The Rules // Floral Maxi DressEvery day that it’s 60 degrees outside, I feel like yelling at the top of my lungs: spring is here!  Well it’s been two weeks since the official start of the season, but spring isn’t really here until picture peonies are clogging up your Instagram feed and the whole city is covered in flowers.  Soon enough!  I see buds popping up in planters on every corner and within a few weeks, the streets will be in full bloom.

Skirt The Rules // Floral Maxi Dress & Leather Moto JacketUntil then, I’ll just have to represent in this floral maxi dress.  I wore something similar for my bridal shower in Arizona, but I love how the black and white palette and a moto jacket give it a bit of an urban update.  It also makes for the perfect backdrop to my new coral crossbody.  Isn’t she a beaut?  Check out some of my favorite floral maxi options below and someone please bring me some spring!

Skirt The Rules // Windowpane Print Dress

I spent the past weekend in Arizona for my bridal shower and flew back to New York on a Monday night redeye. After only one uninterrupted hour of sleep on the plane, I surprisingly made it through my first day back in the office without falling asleep on the job (yay me!).  It wasn’t until I finally laid down for the first time in 36 hours that I immediately crashed and haven’t fully recovered since.  I feel like I could sleep for DAYS.

Skirt The Rules // Windowpane Print Dress

So I can guarantee you that I’m probably putting as little effort into my wardrobe as possible this week.  This windowpane dress has been on major rotation lately.  It’s super comfy, but still put together, which makes for the perfect standby for recovery weeks like this one.  It also comes in a top and a skirt if you want to mix and match.  I love the dress paired with a military vest, a simple black clutch and a pair of leopard heels.  Easy peasy and effortless!  What’s your go-to lazy outfit?
