The last time I wore this peplum top, I dressed it up for work with a pencil skirt. What I love about it is that it looks just as good with boyfriend jeans for the weekend.
When it comes to shopping, I try to make sure that pieces work multiple ways for my closet. All of these definitely fit the bill, which is why they are all making return appearances on the blog!
Top: Mossimo, Jeans: Gap (last seen here), Shoes: Franco Sarto via Marshalls (last seen here), Necklace: Stella & Dot Bambaleo, Bracelet: Stella & Dot Christina Link, Earrings: J.Crew Factory Fireball Stud
And now the fun stuff: I’m super-excited to introduce you to Nicole of A Dash of Gold! 
Aside from being GOR-GEOUS, which I’m sure you all noticed right away, Nicole is a Target-shoppin’, champagne-drinkin’ fashionista- a girl after my own heart I’d say. She’s got the effortless style thing down, and I love how she keeps it real for us budget-conscious ladies. I can’t get enough of her Save or Splurge series, but she also shows how she remixes her wardrobe, wearing pieces for both work and play! Trust me when I say, you’ll want to check Nicole out! But before you go, make sure you enter her giveaway – a $25 gift card to Stella & Dot!

Well you know I am such a sucker for boyfriend jeans. I feel like I practically live in them during the fall season!
I love that animal print peplum! I was a little late in discovering peplum tops and now I wear them like crazy!

Ummmm….you are so stinking cute! I love this look – and especially a good pair of boyfriend jeans. I’m all for comfy pants, haha. xx
Love that top. It was so cute with the pencil skirt, but looks fabulous with the boyfriend jeans too. That is one of my favorite things about peplum tops – they tend to look great no matter what you pair them with. Love that necklace too!
