Peplum top: Day to Night

I love this peplum top!  It is so versatile and has been a fun trying it out with various items from my closet.  Here is a daytime outfit.  I love mixing dark colors and accenting them with the occasional pop of color.  The nightime outfit mixes my favorite black and white and a little purple.  I am also sort of obsessed with these t-straps.  Any styles that you have found particularly versatile? I am always up for trying out new styles!

Spring Green

This weekend, I spent a bit of time on UT campus while helping Adam with a French play that he was involved with.  I knew I would need my hair pulled back as we moved lights and scenery and recently I have been trying a few new up-do's.  I saw Merrick's tutorial for her fluffy bun, and thought I would try it out.

Peplum top

A few days ago, I ordered this lovely top from Kohl's.  Isn't it fun (in a black, tee-shirt sort of way...)?!  I have been keeping my eye out for a peplum top for a few months now, but hadn't found the exact style that I was looking for, or one for a decent price (apparently I am obsessed, because I just finished making this peplum top... now I have two!).  This one that I ordered was only $9.99. It is comfortable, a decent material, and very versatile (I really loved the other color choices, but had to go with black because of its versatility). I really love it and will definitely be putting it to good use in the coming months!   Kohl's has been so kind as to let me include a coupon code here in case you are in need of a stylish, but inexpensive peplum shirt, too (or whatever suits your fancy)!  Just enter BLOGS10 at checkout through May 10th to save 10% (it can be used to stack savings with one other department level code as well.). A few other options of a similar style but with better sizing options can be found here, here, here, or here.
