What to Wear: Peplum Jackets

One of my favourite trends to emerge from the SS12 shows is without doubt, the peplum skirt. So feminine, the shape it gives the figure is sublime. Whilst we've all seen peplum skirts and dresses before, I feel the new trouser and jacket styles are incredibly fresh & current.
I've put together a few outfits combining both high-end with high-street, the main point of interest being the peplum jacket. Typically Rachelle style; I tend to pair peplum jackets or tops with slim trousers & fierce high heels to balance out the silhouette - too wide trousers would leave even the skinniest of size 6's looking like Roy Chubby Brown...
