Welcome to our #30SKIRTSIN30DAYS series: Spring/Summer Edition! I am so excited to embark upon this visual journey with you all. If you need a refresher on the series, click the – 30 SKIRTS link in the navigation menu and you are there!
Today’s look is what I would wear to a garden party. This is a summer favorite event! I love all the finger foods, the beautiful surroundings and the extra effort that people make to look good at these events!
To that end, I paired a floral skirt with a scrappy top and heels. I paired this with some of my favorite accessories – a straw hat and bag: what is more appropriate than these for a garden party?!
I am so excited about all the looks that will be featured in this series! I cannot wait to hear your thoughts and see if you buy some of these and style them your way! Make sure you tag me @Africancocktail or #Africancocktail.
I’m Binja, an African based healthcare IT consultant by day and an #Africancocktail at all times! Who is an #Africancocktail? Allow me to explain: I’m half Congolese (DRC) and half Kenyan (hella African) – that along with the fact that I’ve grown up in five countries on three continents has contributed to my being an amalgamation of cultures (or in my case a cocktail). Yes, I’m one of those ‘third culture kids’ who sounds British but speaks Swahili and French with an American accent. So yes folks – I’m an #Africancocktail!
