To say that I have a crush on each of these pieces is an understatement. In fact I am not sure if its also the model selling the clothes.She is such a beautiful curvy woman. If you guys know her name please let me know. Summer is a great time to wear all your cute and printed maxi dresses. These were designed by a fabric company for inspiration, so run to your tailor to make you one.

ROCK THE PRINTS! ASOS AFRICA LATEST KITENGE COLLECTION IS TO DIE FOR





This summer will be all about prints and I am excited for the new Spring/summer collection from the  Asos Africa line  which launched only a few days ago on Asos.com. The look book  its an explosion of prints (kitenge and Kanga)and bold Colors. The line which includes 21 pieces has something for every print lover  from cropped  tops to beautiful kitenge dresses, shorts, skirts and shirts.  This collection just like any Asos Africa collection is made in collaboration with Soko kenya  and a  portion of each purchase goes to support local communities in Africa.  The prices start at $45.The only disappointing part about all of this is that the biggest size from the collection i could find was  a size 14. So if you are bigger than that you can just admire the collection from far( Sad face). I hope the Asos Africa team thinks about adding more sizes to their future collections.
