Work days are great and all, but we are more than excited for the weekend. To help you keep your head (and your excitement levels) up, we pulled together some Ankara styles that will have you missing your skinny jeans and crop tops like none other. After all, you love African prints just the way we love it. So scroll down and keep reading, then copy the looks to your tailor:

For downtown look, keep things simple and comfy with a pair of slide sandals or step things up with wedge sandals for uptown look. The sandals will help showcase your latest pedicure.

Ankara Jumpsuit
For a drink with friends or a night-on-the-town: this new take on Ankara jumpsuit guarantees a fun outing or a fun night. You can never also go wrong to wear it to see your mother-in-law (or mother-in-law to be).
