Trend 101: The Circle Skirt

Circle skirts are a staple for spring/summer 2013. Circle skirts are easy to style and very comfortable to wear on an everyday basis. You can even dress them up with a pair of heels or stay casual with sneakers. Circle skirts help to find your waist and make it look suer tiny while also adding slight curves which give you some shape. Circle skirts can easily be paired with a blouse, t-shirt, a flowly top, and just about anything else. Especially with the assortment of patterns, prints, and lengths circle skirts come in, you can make them work into your style while still being able to switch it up.

Fashion 101: The Peplum

Beyonce

Kourtney Kardashian

Emma Stone

Peplum style skirts and dresses are so unique and help form and define curves. I love the peplum style, it reminds me of a bit of a tutu mixed with lots of chic! A peplum is basically just a sort of frill added in the waist section of a skirt of dress. I recommend that for anyone wanting to show off their waist or create a smaller waist to try out a peplum style. Beyonce's peplum begins exactly at the waist and is continued by a pencil bottom.Beyonce's peplum helps to show off her flat abs as well as her small waist because the rest of the dress is tight. Kourtney Kardashian wears her peplum in the style of a mini dress accented by a cute zipper. Just like Beyonce's peplum, Kourtney's begins right at the waist giving her a nice curve and small waist. The color of the dress is lovely and the snake skin clutch is perfect! Emma Stone's peplum is a bit weird since the fabric is bubbled up and sticking outward from her body. However, the color scheme is great! Be sure when purchasing a peplum style that the fabric is not to thick and that it is goin around your body equally. A peplum should be flattering!
