I fell in LOVE with this colorful organza set while shopping around Soho in NYC. One of my close friends came to visit me from Ghana and we went on a little shopping trip in Soho. I do not miss living in Mahattan yet, but I do miss all the different retail seductions :D…. I saw this set on the window display of Necessary Clothing. There was a blue and white option which I was originally attracted to. It resembled blue and white porcelain and would have looked splendid with some Ruby Woo!

I actually paid for the blue and white option, walked out onto Broadway and Howard and saw two other girls with their friends adoring the blue set.

On one hand that was great validation that other people also thought this set was beautiful but the little rebel in me had to go back and choose the peachy/orange colorway that no girl was touching – I actually didn’t wear it once when I lived in Mahattan.

The moment I got to Ghana it became an instant favorite. I’ve only been in Ghana 3 weeks and I’ve rocked this outfit  3 times…I am a shameless outfit repeater! (I mix and match it with other clothing items)

p.s. If you’re wondering about the natural hair watch this YouTube Teyonah Parris inspired clip – That’s where I got the idea.
