Hey Guys!
Today I wanted to introduce you to a new Brooklyn based line called naKIMuli:
naKIMuli, which is Ugandan for flower, is a line of African inspired ready to wear pieces by Tennille Nakimuli McMillan.
Her most recent collection called, “Lock U Up In Luv For Days,” was inspired by summer love in Brooklyn.
She explains, “I wanted to capture the feeling of a spring fling; of meeting that special someone in Fort Greene Park and spending the spring days and evenings with him. Getting to know him. Enjoying the weather. And wearing outfits that would make you feel young and fun and flirty.”
While I love all the print dresses, my favorite from the collection would have to be this black asymetrical number with a thick braided strap:
It’s different, it’s funky, and super hot!
See more naKIMuli wares at www.nakimuli.com and shop at www.shop.nakimuli.com. Also check out the brand’s blog here, and their facebook group here.
