Wax Print Moments: Solange’s Wax Print Dottman + Vlisco’s Funky Grooves Collection
These are just a few fashion worthy wax print obsessions that caught my attention. Inspired by Bola Obileye’s self-proclaimation Ankaranista, here are a few of my favorite things that I’m loving right now.
1. Solange Knowles’ wax print ottoman, napkins + matching pillows
Solange’s personal style is very much own and it reflected in her home decor as well. She invited Elle magazine into her Brooklyn home where I fell in love with her wax print napkins, pillows, and equally, irresistable ottoman. Her lastest modeling for Madewell Fall 2012 catalog is very chic and very much HER! #Obsessed! (See Solange’s Brooklyn style home over at ELLE!)
2. Vlisco Funky Grooves Collection
There is a reason why Vlisco continues to be the leader in wax print craftsmanship. Their recently released Funky Grooves collection oozes style, class and versatility! #Obsessed (See the full collection over at Munaluchi Bride magazine!)
Honorable mentions goes to …
Dannijo “Cocoki Bleu”
Have. Want. Need. Wishlist. Piggy Bank Worthy!
