We are never letting this one go out of our wardrobe. The eternal cubicle confetti and polka dots are the best representation of “less is more”. So elegant whether you pair it with a pencil or a-line skirt, or skinny or wide-leg pants. This is just one all-rounder.

8. Peplum Top
Peplum tops can be sleek and flowy at the same time. The flared waistline makes it comfortable for any body shape or type, especially for conscious ones. At IREA, we have added a twist to the peplum, as seen in Carissa and Cora, by adding slits so that they can be paired with high-waist trousers giving the much-needed professional look while evoking a sense of dynamism in the attire. We cannot imagine a wardrobe without the super comfortable peplum top!

Tuck one into tailored pants for a CEO-worthy look or pair it with a pencil skirt for a dose of "I mean business and I'm fabulous" vibes. Choose a solid or printed satin blouse, you just cannot go wrong here, if you want to stand out of the crowd.
