I have always LOVED to bring out my Nigerian side.
Not only with my eccentric hip beads, bangles and colors only from the motherland, but prints, and the many different ways to wear them.
Now what seems to be semi mainstream fashion (Though I was going to rock* it this summer anyway) is the infamous tribal prints***
Found in swimsuits, dresses, leggings and more tribal prints have made their stance in this summer's fashion trends.
Not to be fooled not EVERYONE can pull this look off!!!
I.e
1. If your print is full body and b/w add a pop of color in a purse, shoe or even outerwear
2. Never mix two prints of different colors
3. Try to mix a bland, (khaki, jean or white) basic, *top, bottom, jacket* to balance it off especially if you're just starting to test tribal prints (or any prints) out.
And hey! Who says this fashion is only for women???
Please try it MEN =]
I'd love to find a tribal fashion prince on the streets of ATL* =*
