Peplums

Peplums are all over the place right now.

I've not been able to make my mind up about the peplum trend, I don't think that they're that flattering as they make your tummy look bigger than it is, but it seems that peplums are here to stay.

Peplums can be found on skirts, tops or dresses and, as demonstrated below, can look really good or really really bad...

It has been given a seal of approval from many celebs, even a royal seal of approval from darling Kate Middleton.

Well, if you can't beat them...join them! The high street offers lots of reasonably priced examples of the trend. I think it's best to go for a plain fabric as the peplum itself is all the outfit needs.
