How to style African prints into your daily looks

I’m a lover of African prints as you can see under my style section: African prints. I know that sometimes it may be challenging to figure out how to style them into daily looks. So I’m here to ease your fears and give you my top tips on how you can incorporate these bold prints into your wardrobe.

  1. Wear your prints as separates – this is the easiest way to start. Pick a top or pant and only wear that as the star of the entire look. Pairing the print with a neutral item highlights the print and allows you to confidently rock an African print like a pro!
  2. Add a head wrap and rock your crown queen – a head wrap is always a good idea y’all! You can top off any look with a head wrap. I especially love crowning myself with one as it makes me feel über regal. Go ahead, give it a try … I stan a girl in a gorgeous head wrap.
  3. Always add denim – denim adds edge and a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ when it comes to African print. Pairing a print with denim, as I did in this shoot, not only allows the print to stand out but it also creates a very Afropolitan vibe.

So there you have it folks. The quick three step guide to styling African prints into your everyday looks!
