A party is not a real party unless I am wearing a peplum.  It’s true I love the stylish top. I find it flattering as it fits tightly around the torso and flares out on the bottom. Not a top for everyone, but for me I feel it works…or at least I think it does..When it comes to peplums the waist line and bottom flare has to hit at the right area and with the right length. If it is too high then I look pregnant, and if it is too low it makes my hips look big. It should hit right around where the waistline is. The length of the flare needs to be long as I find short peplums do not work well for me. This top from Tibi is one of my favorites and works well with my body structure. It takes some serious will power to not wear it to every single party. 
Another party favorite of mine is my leopard heels from J.Crew. From my Instagram pictures you probably have noticed I live in my leopard ballerina flats, that is why I HAD to have these heels. I usually love wearing them with an all black ensemble, making me feel chic and put together.  They are a shade darker than most leopard prints, which I love, so they are not too over dramatic. Some believe leopard is a neutral, which I completely agree with when it comes to shoes and purses. They are the perfect accent to any outfit. 
This outfit is casual enough to wear anywhere, yet still dressed up enough for a party. As the holidays approach there will be plenty of get togethers and events to attend to, and this party look is perfect for such occasions. The peplum really makes the entire look more fashionable and put together. 
By the way, ever have a really great hair day? Well thanks to mother nature this was not one of them…so.much.wind.
