Pretty in Peplum: grab Leah Weller's look for £16 at Topshop

Source

Since I saw this picture of Leah Weller (model, muscian, dj) at an Esprit store opening I have been searching for the perfect peplum top. I already have the leather skirt, which looks surprisingly even cooler (maybe not literally) in the summer, so could easily achieve this chic look.

By some sort of telepathic fashion crisis awareness, Topshop kindly emailed me this morning to tell me that they had in stock, in a variety of colours, a peplum top uncannily similar to the one Weller chose, for a mere £16. Do you even need to question why I love the high street so much!

Also available in white: £16 at Topshop

Get them quick-I imagine that these will sell out fast as Topshop once again manages to mix great style at affordable prices. For more Leah Weller style inspiration see below:

She was criticised for the last look at the Elle Style Awards this year for looking more 'playboy bunny' than stylish. I say you can't blame a girl for taking the occasional fashion risk-love the detachable collar.

Perfect Prints: Mary Katrantzou for Topshop

Source

Designer collaborations for the high street is something of the norm these days, and I say, keep them coming! There is nothing that gets me more excited than when I see another of my favourite designers has joined forces with my favourite high street store.

 Versace for H&M was one of my highlights as for such a luxe brand to be interested in a collaborative effort is no mean feat. 

But now, there is the up and coming designer Mary Katrantzou who I have championed since her first collections in 2008. Her keen eye for prints always kept me interested. This season she has designed a capsule collection for Topshop which sold out in a matter on hours. This is hardly surprising seeing as the garments are both striking and flattering due to their  original structuring and intricate prints. I love this collection for the high street as it injects some catwalk cool with affordable prices. 

The gorgeous printed leggings which I cannot wait to get my hands on come at a mere £40. Plus, if you fancy buying the dress that Poppy Delevigne wore to the Elle Style Awards it comes at the price of £350. If it is good enough for the celebrity wardrobe, it would be rude not too! Although the collection is sold out online it will be in stores soon. So, I'll see you in the queue! 

How would you style these amazing prints?
