Tribal




Dress (Primp Boutique) Coat (Old Navy); Hat (Kohls);  Tights & Gloves  (Target);
Shoes (Nine West); Necklace (H&M)

Tribal prints take me back to the 90's - specifically Fresh Prince and DJ Jazzy Jeff.  In fact, for $42 -you can buy the man in your life this beauty. With a name like "90s Abstract Tribal Fresh Prince Hip Hop Club Silk Print" - you know it's going to be super fly ;)  It took me awhile to embrace the tribal pattern again - but I'm so glad I did!  I'm loving the grown up glam version of this print, but the loudly colored over-sized silks shirts from the 90's will always have a very special place in my heart :)

Ahhhhh! I looooove Fresh Prince! Sad to say I have all the DVDs now :) Really loving your dress, I find most tribal patterns too overwhelming but this one is more stylized and subtle - great find :)

What a stunning outfit! I love the different colours and textures and I'm so jealous that you can layer up for winter as it is sweltering here in Australia!

I love the visual interest of this dress from the great colors to the pattern. It's definitely a fresh and sophisticated take on tribal.

This is stunning...I love the colours and the pattern. To me it kinda says 1930s art deco...really eye catching, esp with the long leg line you achieve wearing matching tights/shoes!
