Ankara Pants

There is a time I was so obsessed with ankara, I would sew my own outfits by hand. That is how impatient I was.I honestly did not have the time and patience to play cat and mouse games with fundis (tailors). So at some point I decide that I was going to sew my own ankara pants by hand, let's just say things didn't go as planned and I ended up changing the pants into a skirt. By the way am I the only person who likes designing my own stuff just to avoid so many unnecessary questions from the tailor? Oh well I guess it's just me. If you decide to go the ankara pants way here is some inspiration...by the way I just love the way they look when you pair them with white vests.  plus some day I am going to share some pictures of the ankara stuff I have sewn by hand then I will see how many thumbs up I will get.

Which one is your favorite?

Pencil Skirt

Welcome to my blog. I love fashion and I have always admired what fashion bloggers do. Since I don't have time to shop for new stuff all the time (I guess I am just broke) neither am I photoegenic I have decide to use photos from other people who can do it, put them together and give you ideas on how you can put together fabulous pieces.

I will start by introducing you to the pencil Skirt. For the longest time I had never imagined myself in it probably because I do not have the legs for it. Of late I have thrown all caution out of the window and I have started embracing them. Here are some photos of what I got as I was trying to figure out how to wear them.

I totally love this look! Who wouldn't? I love the choice of colors

and the skirt fits perfectly.

The black skirt is ideal for the office, you can wear it with a printed top.

Fell free to wear it with a cropped top for a more casual look.

You can't go wrong with polka dots.

This look is just perfect, I love ankara too much. Try out this look and let me know how it goes. See you soon.
