plum peplum peggy kolliasDo you ever go window shopping with no intention of buying something just to browse for inspiration and then stumble upon a magical dress for the right price? Well, that’s just what happened with this plum peplum dress which was from Eva Longoria’s Limited collection. It was only $30 because the store was closing, so it’s unfortunate that it closed, but I’m lucky that I found it 🙂 It really is a magical dress because once I’m zipped up, it hugs everything in the right place and the perfect amount. I never wear body forming dresses, but I decided to take a fashion risk with this one and it worked in my favor.

For a brief moment, it was safe to wear this dress with no tights, but it’s back to wearing tights. And since it’s since technically winter, I wore a moto leather jacket to make the dress a bit more funky. I really like the side asymmetrical peplum of this dress because usually peplum goes all around the waist and this one is different, which I like. I also can’t stop wearing these ZARA heels. For their height, they’re actually quite comfortable and basically match my entire winter wardrobe.

On another note, I have a fun girls’ night dinner planned tonight (maybe I’ll wear this ‘lil number again) and I can’t wait! It’s basically the only thing getting me through this dreary rainy day…

Gray Peplum

Gray Peplum1It’s back to the basics – gray and black that is. April weather is definitely a bit annoying because one day it’s sunny and the following day it’s cold and rainy. Oh, Chicago… I do love this outfit though and all the little details; especially the exposed back zipper. My main goal today is to get through the busy day. Let’s do this Wednesday!Gray Peplum6Gray Peplum4Gray Peplum3Peplum: Gap // Jeans: J.Brand (similar) // Backpack: Kelsi Dagger (similar) // Sunglasses: Ray-Ban
