Peplum has been popping up everywhere this season. And if you are scratching your head because you’ve been hearing this word but have no idea what it is, it just refers to a short ruffle attached at the waistline of a jacket, dress, or top. Just this simple touch of ruffle can really change the look of an outfit.

Here are some of my favorite peplum pieces for the spring.

The Kimchi Blue Structured Peplum Top from Urban Outfitters has pleated ruffles and contoured seaming to create a fitted and flattering silhouette. Extra detailing like the exposed zipper down the back make this simple top far from ordinary.

Ladies..we all have those favorite strappy heels that look great but feel just painful. You know the ones. They dig into your ankle or the back of your heel and leave you with red marks, blisters and pain at the end of the night. Thanks to Foot Petals Strappy Strips, there is some relief in sight. These are a great little shoe secret. The strips have an adhesive back that you can stick on the inside of your straps to avoid the rubbing and irritation with the cushion design. They come in a variety of colors so you can match them to your shoes. Now your feet don’t have to suffer with you’re shoe straps.

The rain boot is no longer just a functional shoe to keep your feet dry. The rain boot has gotten a fashion upgrade. With so many styles, colors, and designers jumping in to the rain boot game, the shoe has definitely undergone a transformation to mix fashion with function.

Springtime is the perfect time to invest in a new pair of rain boots. Here are 5 rain boots that will not only keep your feet dry but will also make a statement.

You can’t have a list of rain boots without Hunter. Hunter boots are the quintessential classic rubber rain boot. They are well-made and durable and come in a variety of color and heights. I like the Original Short Gloss. They have the classic Hunter label on the front with buckle accents around the side.

Rain boots are very practical but it doesn’t mean they have to be boring. The Ted Baker Mardea boots are tall black boots that look more like a riding boot than a rain boot. The white bows on the side add a cute girly accent to the boots. The bows are detachable so you can decide when you want to accessorize.

If you prefer prints over solids, there are a lot of print options to choose from.

The Sperry Top-Sider Pelican Boots are a herringbone print in classic black and white so they are a great color combo to match with almost anything.

There’s very little that you can’t find in animal print so why would rain boots be any exception? The Dirty Laundry Raindrop Jungle boots are cheetah animal print so you can fiercely take on any weather conditions.

From boots to pumps and sandals and flats, the collection offers a wide range of styles for every shoe lover. Here are a few of my favorites from the new line.

The Rose Gemstone Thong Sandals have a slight wedge so they aren’t totally flat and the glossy gemstones that adorn the front give them just the right amount of sparkle.

The espadrille wedge is one of my favorite summer shoe styles so it’s no surprise that I am loving the Annabel Strappy Wedges. The straps and leather braiding up the front come together at the buckle ankle strap giving off a very gladiator look to these wedges. They would look great with skinny jeans or your favorite summer maxi dress.

What first caught my eye with the Mabel Espadrille Peeptoe Sandals was the color. You can’t go wrong with this bright coral rose for the summer. And these aren’t your average peeptoe heels. They have a braided espadrille heel giving them a unique look.

I am forever in a battle of keeping fresh herbs fresh. I love to cook with fresh herbs. It makes such a difference to the flavor of your food. But whenever I buy fresh herbs from the grocery store, I never know how to store them properly to make them last longer than just for one recipe. This set of three Herb Pods is genius. They are supposed to make your herbs last for up to three weeks. You just transfer the herbs in to these storage devices which are filled at the bottom with water. But what’s really great about these is that they are designed to fit right in the fridge. You don’t have to worry about the water spilling or the herbs getting damaged. Now you can evoke your inner Top Chef have fresh herbs for all your recipes.
