These gorgeous photos are from a past TIME Magazine spread entitled "Out of Africa." The reason I was inspired to write this post was because I was thinking of my other favorite weakness...big, chunky, eclectic jewelry. I love mixing African/global pieces (jewelry or clothing) with whatever I am wearing. I think putting a funky piece of jewelry with a simple black dress or jeans and a t-shirt, you can turn your everyday look into something chic and unique. I am loving these looks!
A lovely singer whose fashion sense has always inspired me is Amel Larrieux. She definitely mixes old world pieces with new world flavor. Check out her eclectic look here in her video "Get Up."
