Ways to wear African Fabric- Wax Print Pencil Skirts
Do you want to experiment with African fabric and not sure how? Have you been gifted some African print or have some in your fabric stash that you do not know what to do with?
With spring finally here, my suggestion would be to make a nice and simple pencil skirt. A bright, colourful pencil skirt can easily be paired with a block colour top or blouse. It can also be dressed up with some heels or dressed down with a cool pair of trainers.
Here are some for inspiration.
