I am currently wearing a skirt I made which is lime green with a daisy pattern. One of my favourites.

Mine is white midi-length dress with gold star details. It has a smocked bodice with pouffy sleeves and a cute tie at the back. Too girly even for me lol...

A definite nod to the 70's?

I'm not too familiar with 70s fashion so I googled it. Definitely a little 70ish.

No, more a pastel shade

I’ve been going through my fall wardrobe a little. Is a fitted peplum dress worth saving? I was happy to see it still fits but I might feel self conscious wearing it now. My husband likes it if that matters. Oh it is knee length.

I am not the person to ask. I never liked peplum dresses.

Aside from that, I don't remember the last time I saw a peplum dress, and they certainly are no longer in the shops.

I am sounding out a negative aren't I?

If you have to ask if it's stil in fashion, it almost certainly isn't.

As for keeping wardrobes sensible. I operate a one in, one out policy. It works most of the time.

I go for comfort in my clothing, as well as whether something suits me. I do find that I might get bored of my clothes by the end of the season if I don't have many choices, but I don't want to spend the money on all those choices!
