Ankara

Skirt: TopShop (more printed skirts here & here).
Crop Top: American Apparel.
Sandals: Saint Laurent (available in black here).

I found this ankara print inspired skirt languishing on the sale rack in Topshop. I love this type of print.  I even have ankara print cushions in my living room 🙂
This is my hair in it’s natural state. I have a keratin treatment a couple of times a year and it’s almost washed out completely now.

  7. Beautiful, Ashley! One of my fav outfits!!
    I was searching for a nice crop top- think I'm going to buy this one, too.

    One question: did you do the CHI keratin straightening? Does it really wash out? I always thought it must grow out.. Thinking about straightening my hair for so long now. Perhaps I should try it out.

    Greetings from Germany! <3

  44. Jeez, this is gorgeous, I have naturally wavy/wilder (take it as you please) hair too, and I wish it looked as great as yours! And nice to see the American Apparel crop tops getting so much love on the bloggisphere too, they're definitely my summer staple! 🙂

  110. I absolutely love the AA cropped top – and how you paired it with that skirt is even better!

    I have a couple friends who have keratin treatments twice a year as well – it could such a pain!

  158. As an African woman its so enjoying to see people embracing Ankara. When I was growing up people from all backgrounds especially African Americans would make fun. Now it is a fashion trend…wow…thank you
