Get ready to channel serious desert-chic vibes, because our new Sedona Crochet Peplum Cami has officially arrived! This top is the ultimate blending of textures—featuring a handcrafted crochet bodice in warm desert tones (terracotta, sage green, and cream) paired with a contrasting, airy waffle-knit peplum skirt. It's that sweet spot between casual, retro, and elevated that we’re currently obsessed with.
Here’s the thing: a top this unique can seem intimidating to style, but it's surprisingly versatile. To prove it, we’ve put together three different looks to help you rotate this beauty through your wardrobe all season long.
Look 1: The Modern Hippie (Festival Ready)
Perfect for: Outdoor concerts, market days, or casual weekend hangouts.
We are leaning into the 70s inspiration here. Let the crochet be the star of the show by pairing it with contrasting denim.
-
The Vibe: Effortlessly cool, bohemian, and textural.
-
The Kit:
-
Bottoms: Go for destroyed denim cut-offs (just like the model!) or, if you want full 70s energy, pair it with high-waisted flared jeans.
-
Footwear: Platform sandals or suede ankle boots in a tan shade.
-
Accessories: This top loves texture! Pile on the accessories—think a wide-brim fedora, layered gold chain necklaces, and chunky acetate earrings. Don't forget a fringe crossbody bag!
-
Look 2: The Beachside Dinner (Coastal Elevated)
Perfect for: Vacations, patio dining, or hot summer nights.
This top has a structured-meets-breezy feel that makes it easy to dress up for a night out. The peplum bottom adds a nice, sophisticated flare.
-
The Vibe: Polished yet relaxed, airy, and vacation-ready.
-
The Kit:
-
Bottoms: Swap the denim for tailored white wide-leg linen trousers. This creates a monochromatic base with the peplum that’s incredibly chic.
-
Footwear: Minimalist, strappy block-heel sandals in a neutral tone.
-
Accessories: Keep the neck clear and opt for large gold hoops. Finish with a sleek straw or woven clutch bag.
-
Look 3: The Transitional Layer (Early Autumn/Late Spring)
*Perfect for: Date night, cooler evenings, and maximizing your wardrobe.
Just because it's a camisole doesn't mean it’s only for 90-degree days. Use the fitted crochet bodice to layer like a pro.
-
The Vibe: Unexpected, cozy, and fashion-forward.
-
The Kit:
-
Bottoms: A sleek midi skirt in silk or satin, or black tailored pants.
-
The Layer: This is key! Layer this top over a fitted, long-sleeve white turtleneck or a sheer mesh top.
-
Footwear: Sleek, pointed-toe ankle boots.
-
Accessories: Add a structured leather tote or a top-handle bag to add a polished counterpoint to the soft waffle knit.
-
Key Takeaways for Styling:
-
Don’t Fear Accessories: The crochet texture is bold, so it can hold up to layered jewelry and hats without looking cluttered.
-
Contrast the Textures: The waffle knit is soft; pair it with hard denim, crisp linen, or sleek leather/silk to create visual interest.
-
Accent the Colors: The terracotta and sage green stripes are perfect accents—pick one of those colors for an accessory or shoe to pull the whole look together.
