Floral Peplum Top, Striped Pencil Skirt (seen here), Guess Heels, Black Wool Coat (old – similar), Two-toned Pink Clutch

I’m a huge proponent of having fresh flowers throughout my home at all times. They make every room feel fresh and alive. There’s no reason why the same principle can’t be applied when it comes to fashion. Seasonal blossoms atop a black backdrop such as the ones on this flattering peplum top can also add that same freshness (or flower power as you will) to a wardrobe. Not to mention the femininity that it boasts all the whilst making me feel ever more ebullient, especially when paired with a striped skirt. I love the moment of surprise that this combination brings under the long black wool coat. Adding the simple accent of a bright two-toned clutch that pulled out some of the colors from the top gave this all black ensemble interest.
