Outfit Post (with video!): Peplum Polka Dots

April 04, 2012


                               Vimeo - Song: "I'll Try Anything Once" by The Strokes.

Outfit Details:
Top: H&M (recent)
Pants: Gap
Necklace: F21
Bracelets: H&M
Watch: Michael Kors
Trench: Banana Republic Mad Men collection

Yes, yes, I know. You didn't picture me being such a nerd in real life, but this is my attempt at running around demonstrating different aspects of my outfit. Now, be nice, because this is my first time making a video. Ha, but my lovely and talented guy actually filmed and edited it! Anyway, I love the peplum trend, and decided to spruce up this basic outfit with my favorite go-to piece… my Mad Men trench from BR. Besides, it also adds that pattern-mixing popularity that I happen to be very fond of too.

So, feel free to comment below and let me know how you feel about me filming my outfit, and if you'd like to see more, or if I should only stick to photos ;) as always, thanks for your love & support.

    es una buena inversión porque los peplum están de moda está temporada y así con topos le da un aire más chic.
    genial
