Life in Ankara.




Hey lovelies,
                    How are you all doing? As the quote above says, "When one door closes, another door opens". 2013 didn't start on a very good footing for me. I lost two people very close to my heart but am soo happy that I can see some light at the end of the tunnel . Anyway TGIF! I bet some of you can't wait to be done with work, school etc and start enjoying the weekend. Well why don't you start enjoying this lovely post. This might give you an good idea of what to wear for any parties you have this weekend. By the way it's 20th May in 3 days. Woohoo! exciting right?. So, I got inspired this week and decided to sew one on my many designs ( mind you this is the first time I am ever attempting to sew something from start to finish), So I designed, cut and 100% sewed this lovely Ankara circle skirt. Trust me it wasn't easy but I am so excited and proud of the results. plus it fit me perfectly. Since the skirt was already colorful  I decided to pair it with a White Shirt ( who needs a short sleeve shirt when you can fold the sleeves of a long sleeve shirt?). Seriously folding the sleeves makes the outfit look EDGY which I love. Kept my jewelries simple, as usual and paired it will my Aldo clutch and Pink Heels ( Sorry it looks kinda Red in the pic). Hope you love the outfit. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment. More pictures after the cut.

I am so proud of the way the skirt turned out. Wearing an Ankara skirt is a great way to steam up your look this Spring/ Summer. It's definitely a must have.
