Today I’m staying peplum pretty in an hourglass cardigan sweater. I’ve been doing lots of color this season (see this look here) but I decided to change it up and do an all neutral look. What makes this neutral outfit special is the peplum detail on this sweater. The unique fit and shape really catches your eye.

Hourglass Cardigan Sweater
I haven’t worn anything in a while that has peplum so I was excited to add this sweater to my Nuuly box. When you wear a top with a peplum hem the eye goes right away to the waist. It’s such a flattering detail! The neutral color is a bonus too which makes this cardigan work with almost anything. I decided to add my Spanx bodysuit underneath because of the plunging neckline and buttons. This helps the sweater lay smoothly and there is no fear of my skin peaking out.
I decided to contrast the neutrals of the sweater and bag with black pants and back boots. The neutral peplum cardigan really pops against this dark canvas. My new large gold hoops, gold layered necklaces, and gold chain from the bag add shine to the look. Are you a fan of peplum?

Life Lately
My husband and I getting ready to head out to Florida (St. Petersburg) this weekend to see good friends of ours who are snow birds there. Boy am I ready for some sun and warmer weather! Surprisingly I have not bought any warm weather clothing. I’m trying to restrain myself and use what I have.
My family and I are already starting to plan our next National Park trip for this summer. It looks like we will be doing Rocky Mountain National Park. We are buying my mother-in-law’s car for my oldest son and she and many family members live in Boulder so we will kill two birds with one stone. Please offer suggestions for this park if you have any.
The biggest news is that I am going to Greece with my sister in September to celebrate her 50th birthday. Sometime in the next week we will be buying the flights. I might have to do what Amber from Avec Amber did while she was in Greece. What a stunning shoot that was!
Have a fantastic week friends! XO
Have a fun time in Florida!!

Lucky you…Greece! My daughter and her family are planning to go this fall, too. I was hopefully going to join them, but they haven’t mentioned it lately so I don’t know!
This peplum sweater looks so wonderfully feminine on you even with the edgy black boots! I shy away from peplums because most that I find are of the shorter variety. Thanks for sharing!

I LOVE anything peplum, always find it so flattering and this cardi on you doesn’t disappoint! You look amazing! It’s summer here in Australia so it’s great to look at such looks for inspiration for when it starts getting chilly here in a few months.
That trip you’re planning sounds fab too!
Thank you for sharing – I vacillate between colour and neutrals too …

Thanks Bernie! Have a great day!
This is such a cute neutral cardigan! I like that flared hem, it’s a lovely style and it makes it a really nice shape! It would be cute to pair with jeans and skirts, I’ve liked some of the outfits I’ve worn with peplum tops and pencil skirts before! 🙂 maybe when it is warmer for you.
Thanks for joining the Weekday Wear Link up 🙂
Thanks Mica! Have a wonderful day!
This cardigan is such a flattering shape and I love the neutral color! you’ll be able to wear it with so many outfits!
I hope you are having a great week so far!
