Sequins and Sea Breezes: Casual Peplum

Casual Peplum

3/17/2016


Happy Thursday and St. Patrick's Day dolls! Only one more day until the weekend, I can't wait! I'm going out for a low key St. Patrick's Day celebration tonight so I'm definitely glad tomorrow is Friday. I don't know how it's possible but I was more tired Wednesday morning than I was Monday morning and today I have 4 hours worth of meetings so it's going to be a long day! While I might not be wearing green on the blog today, trust me, I'm wearing green in real life! No pinching for this girl! Ok, now on to this outfit.
I haven't shopped at Loft in probably like 5 years. Ok maybe more... *insert embarrassed emoji face here* but it was just never a store I thought to stop in on the rare occasions I was in the mall and it never even crossed my mind online until I started seeing so many cute outfits from other bloggers all coming from Loft. Jenn had posted some super cute things from Loft fairly recently and I saw this exact top on another blogger on Instagram and that convinced me I need to check it out again. Of course I found several things that I needed in my closet immediately and while Loft can be kinda pricey, if you hit them during a sale time it's definitely worth it. And what do you know? I happened to be checking them out on Leap Day so they were offering 29% off you entire order! (Of course now it's an extra 40% but whatever...) so I scooped up this fun mixed material peplum top and rocked it to work on a Friday then out to happy hour. To keep things simple (just the way I like them!) I paired it with a pair of comfy jeggings and quite possibly my new favorite heels! Seriously, these things are so comfortable and cute and look exactly like a pair of Steven Madden's I wanted but for a fraction of the cost! I walked all over downtown (3.71 miles to be exact) and my feet weren't bothering me at all! I topped off my look with some layered necklaces and a pop of color with my favorite watch! Hope everyone has a fantastic day!

  26. I LOVE the Loft! One of my favorite stores ever but yes, always gotta' wait for that good sale to roll around. I've been holding onto a giftcard for them for months now lol- I can't decide if I should buy maternity clothes or hold off longer for a post-baby shopping spree!!

  28. Such a great outfit; Loft is AMAZING (I love their generous sizing and only ever buy on a sale day!!). I think peplums are my absolute favorite because they hide a multitude of woes! Hope you have fun tonight!! Make today work, Rachel -CubicleCouture

  41. this outfit is so adorable! the peplum looks fabulous on you.
    i love/hate Loft. a lot of their clothes are super cute for work, but they are so overpriced sometimes, and i hate the shipping minimum, makes me over shop haha (exactly what they want!) but yeah you can't go wrong when they have a sale!
