Peplum jackets trending in big way

After peplum tops, dresses and skirts, the style is also catching up on jackets. Celebrities like Hilary Swank and Sofia Vergara have flaunted the style on the red carpet look.

A peplum jacket is a jacket with a short overskirt known as a peplum attached. For a modern and confident look, these are a must-have this season.

Both Swank and Vergara looked chic in their all-black outfits. While Swank added some bling via her embellished jacket, Vergara kept hers relatively simple because she wore leather trousers with hers.

Peplum jackets look great with slim-fitted pants, but they also work well over dresses and skirts.

It's an ideal buy for over the Christmas period when the social calendar seems to overflow. It's a stylish option that will work well over most of the wardrobe.
