Next Level Sundress

Hey dolls! Just wanted to pop in and share my look from today. It’s all about this Ankara Harem Maxi Dress. Let’s get into the deets!

I’ve had this dress for over one year, it’s just been sitting in my closet. We all know I love a print, so i’ll tell you why I didn’t jump at the chance to wear this number sooner.

1. No Shoes: I know many of you are rolling your eyes like, whatever. But at the time I received this dress, I did not have any shoes I felt complimented the look.
2. The Fit: When you get these Ankara pieces made, they are usually tailored to your exact measurements. There can be discrepancies here and there, for instance this one came too big. I mean it fit but it wasn’t snatched, if you know what I mean.
3. Accessories: It’s a print in a bold silhouette, but to me I needed something else to make it pop. Like Iris Apfel says, “More is more, and less is a bore.”

Fast forward one year later. Found the perfect shade in this minimalist sandal from Go Jane.

Chokers are so on trend at the moment, perfect accessory. I made this one with the leftover fabric I had. (I even have more fabric left for a headwrap!)

I then went to a local tailor and had it all the way snatched! Before I knew it, the entire look came together!

I’m so glad I took my time and waited to rock it!
