A serious discussion about peplum

Oh snap guys. Someone unfollowed my blog! I'm going to guess it was the person who lives above me.

Anyways I'd like to talk about something serious here.

Peplum.



I don't get this trend, but then again I usually shop at Target so I'm not exactly the queen of fashun over here. It looks like something I would have tried to make when I was 12 and thought I was going to make cool clothes.

I'm very concerned that someone will attempt to wear a peplum top as a dress. You know it will happen at some point and if you see this please take a picture and send it to me

This top in particular is hideous. At least keep it the same material. The good news if you wanted to wear a fanny pack you could probably hide it under the peplum top and no one would know.

Maybe I'm just jealous because I could never pull off this top. I am not a large girl but I do have wide hips and I feel like this top would make me look like the size of a house. Who am I kidding, even if I was as thin as rail I wouldn't wear this, unless I was hiding a fanny pack of course.

So peplum - yea or nay?

  3. I know I definitely couldn't pull it off, but I honestly just don't think it's attractive. So...nay.

  4. NAY. Just....NAY. Yuck.

    In 20 years it's gonna be like shoulder pads and an entire generation of women is going to walk around going "I am mortified by the fact that I ever thought that was OK"

  6. I'd never actually heard the name of it before so I had to google to develop an actual opinion... in general, I'll say nay. I do own one shirt that I guess qualifies as a peplum and I only bought it because it was somehow slimming on me (the top makes my boobs look way perkier than they actually are, so I'm not complaining). But for the most part, I think they tend to look bad. Especially the dresses.

    1. I'm all for tops that make the boobies look good, well at least for me because I'm not very large up top.
