Drop my peplum

Vest & Shoes: Zara| Dress: RACHEL Rachel Roy (via Macy's)| Sunnies: Gap| Necklace: Forever 21

this dress is one of my favorite finds, I purchased it a few months ago knowing that it was going to be a perfect transitional dress from summer to fall and a good dress to layer up "if" Miami ever gets a cold front. The color combination is what's in as Military/hunter green are hitting up a storm this season, as well as the dropped peplum. For this piece just throw in a vest (like I did) or an asymmetrical cut leather jacket and you're in like Flynn (say yes to my corny lines, or pretend you like them). The dress makes me fill a bit whimsical but still gives me that edge I always seek in a piece of garment.

And there you have it folks a small but useful piece of information on what to wear when Miami awaits never the low temperatures. So you see you can still wear fall trends in Miami, you just have to get creative.

ah the peplum is a favorite to many fashion bloggers because it is versatile and so much fun. I found this peplum at the Zara semi-annual sale for $19.99, can you believe that? not really. I am very much in love with all the pieces that I put together for this look, they have been my obsession this summer. The jeans were found at the Madewell summer styling event a few months back and have worn them over and over again, the shoes I had been eyeing since they came out and got them on the sale too and the hard shell bag I found through this pretty cool new site called Bib + Tuck is one of the best summer finds. The sunnies I scooped them up last week at the Gap Styld.by + Lookbook.nu event and I am in love with them. The color combination on this outfit makes me feel happy every time I see it, purple and mint go so well together, don't you agree?

 

On a side note, can you tell what I did to my lips? I put on an outer color and an inner color to my lips adding an interesting effect to them. I used MAC Sheer Supreme - Asian Flower for the outer part of the lip and Sephora - Rouge for the inner part of the lip.
