look for less: peplum

What do you think of the peplum trend?

Emily at Cupcakes and Cashmere was skeptical of peplums at first, but after giving it a shot she noted, "When balanced properly, like with a fitted floral skirt, an understated ruffle creates a surprisingly sleek silhouette."

It took me a while to warm up to peplum tops, but now I'm itching to get my hands on one! Here are a few affordable options:

Nordstrom BP faux leather tank - $38 

Piperlime navy skirt- $49  is this even a peplum? whatevs it's cute.

Kohl's dotted tank - $16

ASOS bright tee - $17

Kohl's polka dot tee - $20

ASOS simple tank - $20

I like the shape of the leather tank and polka dotted tee better than the other tops. The leather would be my pick, but in my dreams I'd hop across the pond and grab this gold sequined top.
