Asian Style, Asian Fashion, AsiaNoa

On the constant search for new styles and brands we find loads of cool stuff in South Korea – I know it makes me sound biased coz I’m always raving about Korean fashion, but seriously – they do have the hottest new items coming out before we even see any stock shifting out of Tokyo! This time I bring you – PEPLUM – urban chic, city fashion, this could be New York, this could be London…mais non, its Seoul City baby!

Ripped leggings, baggy overzise shirts, draped tops, harem pants, high waist shorts and mini dresses – Peplum has it all, so lets pick out a few must haves for now:

super urban ripped leggings!

If we’re talking current urban styles – then we cannot possible overlook the ever-present legging – in its latest variation – voila, we bring you the ripped-to-pieces distressed legging – in a classic black – just enough punk to turn any plain t-shirt into a stylish combo!

Structured Harem Trousers - go Peplum!

So this summer saw a complete domination by the harem trousers – Peplum carries the harem forth into the new season, but instead of a drapey summer jersey (jersey being the ultimate urban fashion fabric anyway – as far as I’m concerned) thery chose to work with a more classic heavier trouser fabric and have turned the drapey harem pant into panelled harem pants! Haven’t seen it done any better anywhere else (yet)!

And yes I do consider black, white and grey absolute wardrobe basics – an entire perfect wardrobe can be built up of only these three colours (with a dash of red accessoires, bit of bling and some animal print accessories maybe). Sooo, no surprise my next two Peplum pieces of South Korean fashion are going to be gray as well:

drapey grey detail top - from South Korea!

This top is perfectly balanced between basic jersey and OTT detailing on the shoulder that easily transforms this day piece into a flexible evening top!

And to our final piece of casual urban fashion straight from the South Korean (fashion) capital, here is a super easy grey jersey oversized t-shirt dress…

Must-have jersey basics - South Korean fashion!

I’m a complete sucker for these kinds of things, super basics that you can so easily add some gold jewelry to or some OTT accessories (like a studded oversize clutch in bright orange maybe?! just an idea…) and throw on with some sexy high heels to turn into a super comfortable but sexy party look…
