Weekend Snapshots:

  1. First I saw a baby chipmunk and butterflies, then a bunny, and then ducks. It’s like Snow White’s forest here.
  2. Rediscovered an old Banana Republic clutch. I think this is from Deborah Lloyd’s reign, which would explain why it’s still charmingly perfect for spring.
  3. A new ring that reminds me of a thistle (c/o Oasap)
  4. Finally found a fuchsia clutch to wear to a wedding this coming weekend
  5. Craft Beer Week in Madison
  6. I just learned that my great-grandmother collected Lily of the Valley for her wedding bouquet.

Adding unnecessary bulk to your hips seems like a stupid thing to do, but a peplum top (like this one from Anthropologie) is actually an extremely figure-flattering piece. The seam curves in at your natural waistline, while the peplum gently flares out to hide any evidence of last month’s Easter candy. I’m particularly fond of this one because it’s made of a thick, stretchy cotton that eliminates the need for a zipper and promises a perfect fit.

I don’t normally purchase items at full price – especially without a coupon code – but this one was definitely worth the $78.
