It’s Friday ABYers! How come Fridays at work always feels the longest though? Sheeesh! I have been feeling this week
sofar so I wanted to top if off with a fiercely colourful outfit of the day ;)You must know that crop tops have been in for the most part of the year. But yours truly hasn’t been spotted in one yet. I mean I do try to stick to a morning exercise routine most weeks but I am still not keen on flashing my not-yet washboard abs :/
Well, Gina of TeakAfrique was having none of that. She contacted me and wanted me to review one of their ankara designs. I knew I was in for a challenge when I opened the nicely wrapped gift package and found one midi skirt and two crop tops!
So I braced myself and…et voilà! What do you think of the results? Should I rock crop tops more often or quietly put that tummy away?
**Is it me or can I see a possible six pack peeking out???!! My Blogilates sessions have not been going to waste ;) You should check out Casey’s channel. The sweating is real, but muscle I must build!
I really love these pieces by Teak Afrique. It’s always a joy to own anything in African print. Plus I love yellow! The skirt has a skater silhouette and features an elasticated band and two wide front pockets . The top is in bralet form and I must say it fits true to size. It provides major support so I didn’t even need a bra! I’m wearing a UK size 8 for both items. That is about a US 4.
The warm temperatures are on and off but when they are on they go strong! So I will be getting a lot of wear out my ankara bralet and matching skirt. Thanks Ayamo Gina and the rest of the team at TeakAfrique. Purchase this set from here. Browse other Teak Afrique items on their Etsy shop here.
