Everyone\u2019s been posting their 2016 photos<\/a>, and while I\u2019m all for that, because for me, I can easily say 2016 was one of the best years of my life, I\u2019m taking it back a little further to the 2000s<\/a>. NSYNC, Britney Spears, low-rise jeans, and peplum tops were the thing (oh the days), and 2000s queen Rachel McAdams just brought back one of those staples\u2014but with a stylish update.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

McAdams was photographed at her Hollywood Walk of Fame Star Ceremony, where she was honored with her own, well, star (it\u2019s about time!). For the occasion, the actress took an elegant approach, opting for a beige mid-length pencil skirt, which she paired with the most nostalgic top: a peplum top<\/a> that brought me straight back to 2001.\n<\/p>\n

She paired said skirt-and-shirt combo with black kitten-heel mules to keep the elegance, opting for only a simple pair of diamond earrings for her accessories. But, let\u2019s get back to the star of the show (McAdams, obviously), but in this case, I\u2019m talking about her peplum top<\/a> that leans way more Khaite than Limited Too, and that\u2019s exactly what I foresee being huge come spring 2026<\/a>.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

Peplum tops in 2026<\/a> are a bit more structured and elegant, with little frills and things aside from the cinching at the waist that then flows into some volume (from subtle to dramatic, though I’m all for the drama.) Pick the right style and, TBH, you look like a sculptural queen and your outfit will appear like a work of art. But aside from the elegance, the flare-hem detail is also incredibly flattering and acts as an optical illusion that makes your waist look so snatched. I love a two-for-one staple: chic and functional!\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
