Midnight Blues
I’m going to sound quite redundant but I love H&M. Some of the cutest items I own came from this store; including this perfectly structured peplum top in a various midnight blue shades with a dark starry-sky-like print. It’s almost like looking up in the sky at night and all you see are different shades of navy.

Top: H&M peplum | Bottom: 7FAM skinnies | Shoes: Zara (similar-ish here) | Bag: Marc Jacobs Crosby Sutton | Necklace: Kate Spade Delacorte flower necklace | Bracelets: Kate Spade colored stones

When I purchased this Marc Jacobs Crosby Sutton bag a couple of weeks ago, I thought I would regret choosing her over a Valentino and a Celine, but each time I see her in photos, I love her even more.
She’s a structure bag that’s unique in her own right, is lightweight and extremely versatile. I normally carry her as a tote with the versatility of the re-moveable straps, but when my arms gets tired, I’ll throw her over the shoulder or use her as a crossbody. The gold hardware and soft pebble leather adds character and the domed silhouette was exactly what I have been looking for. What’s even better? There are a lot of compartments and I can pretty much put everything in this bag…Definitely my go-to bag lately and will be for a while.
What’s your favorite everyday go-to bag?
Perfect peplum!! Love!

I love your style! Always fashion forward and chic! I’m finally blogging, and it is scary! I look to you for inspiration now if only my husband could take a dang picture! ;) my go to bag is a navy blue pleather Aldo bag (go ahead cringe) I’m sure it’s knocking off some big brand but I’m not sure. It just always seems to go with everything and holds my iPad. That’s why! ;)
Xoxo get tired of seeing me on here, I’m very wordy that’s why I suck at twitter. Incidentally anyone who wants to follow me can do so, at their own risk- I’m prone to self-deprecating humour.

This bag looks amazing!!!
So happy you love it :)

I absolutely love your top, and I love the color palette on this one. :)
I actually like your purse more than the other ones because everybody already has it. Then again, I wouldn’t mind getting it either. Haha!
My go-to purse is usually something huge if I have Mia with me. Even though I have a diaper bag, I end up sticking bibs, blankets, toys, and bottles in my purse, too. :)
Love all the chic pieces you put together KT…..the peplum, the purse, necklace, shoes!!!! SO GORGE!!!

Gorgeous look! Love the peplum top and the new bag. I’m a horrible H&M shopper – can’t seem to find anything but always love what others find. I didn’t see this top in the store when I was just there. Always love how you put together your looks and your photos are amazing too.
Wowza! I’m in love with your peplum top and your bag. In fact, if I were you, I wouldn’t be able to decide which one to pick, so I’m glad you chose both at the same time.

Wowza! I’m in love with your peplum top and your bag. Actually, if I were you, I wouldn’t be able to decide which one I love more, so it’s great you just wore them at the same time.

Gorgeous look…The bag is to die for….Xx!
I like your Midnight Blue peplum top. It’s very classic and trendy at the same time =D
This bag looks good! Definitely a good choice as everyday bag. My current fav and everyday bag is Celine =)
Wishing you a great weekend =)

I think it’s obvious that I love H&M too! So many pieces in my closet are from there so I totally understand the way you feel about the store. Your choice to purchase this Marc Jacobs bag was a great one, too! Seeing it in photos really highlights its beauty, and what’s better is that not everyone has it :)

My to-go to bag is Celine mini luggage and while I love my Celine, I kind of feel like everyone has it. It’s still a beautidul bag though! Your Marc Jacobs is beautiful and it looks great on you!
To be honest, I’m not a peplum person at all (or at least, I haven’t had the inclination to attempt a peplum look, but then again, this may change in the not-so-distant future) but I LOVE the print on this one! So pretty! And love how you’ve relatively toned down the rest of your look to make your top the star of your outfit. :)
Of course, you already know how much I’m madly in love with your bag… and I definitely agree with that accurate H&M assessment–some of my very favorite wardrobe staples are from there too. And oh my, and that reminds me that I haven’t been there in forever. Time to pop in for a visit this weekend, I think. ;)

Love, that peplum top is gorgeous on you! The midnight blue color makes it look so luxe. I NEED that top in my life. I’m so sad that we don’t have H&M here in Hawaii. :( I’m missing out.
Your new bag is fabulous. I can see why it’s your current go-to. My go-to bag is probably going to retire soon. It’s my trusty black Tahari bag. I’ve had it for almost 3 years and considering it’s condition, it’s still in pretty good shape, but I’m in need of a new one.
Hope you’re having a great Friday, sweets. The weekend is only moments away. Kisses.
xx Love & Aloha

Love that top and your bag! I actually don’t have a favorite bag and am in middle of looking for a really nice bag that’s versatil and classic. These photos and the one in your leopard pants a few days ago really makes me want to buy this bag!
H&M is one of those stores… If you’re willing to look, it really is full of gems. I just loooove this peplum top. The colour is so perfect on you!
xox,
Cee
I wanted that top but they didn’t have my size! :( It looks cute on you and if you ever want to sell it, can you let me know? I assume you wear a 2/4?
Hi Val – I think the top was a 4 but I took it in a little bit. I don’t think I’ll sell this anytime soon, I love it too much. :(
Super cute bag! Being light is a huge factor when I shop for bags…really can’t use bags that are heavy without anything in them!
And that blue peplum top is gorgeous on you!
