Pep Squad

I am quite happy to hear that the peplum is one trend that's sticking around, at least for a little while longer. Peplums can be simple or very dramatic, either way they can make any jacket, skirt, dress or shirt fun, flirty, and very feminine.
Just to give you a little history, the peplum comes from the Greek word peplos, which was a garment worn around the waist. It originated (in American culture) in the 1800s and lasted for bit; it later came back in the 40's and now is trending everywhere.
This fad is great for people like me who don't have much of a shape. I have small hips so an extra flair at the waist is perfect for me. They're also flattering for those with broad shoulders, pear shapes,

Trend picks all under $100:
