Today, I’m styling an Ankara shirtdress. I love shirt dresses for their versatility and ease of styling. I layered it over a sleeveless white shirt to add the collar, and a little more formality and sophistication to the look. Also, notice that with the scooped hemline, the cut is a bit high on the side, so I opted for this animal print bandage skirt, previously seen here.

Why the choice of animal print layering? Well, not only because animal print is in…just a nod to this fall’s animal print trend. Additionally, the animal print adds a little edgy vibe that balances the floral. The belt defines my waistline, while the blazer, previously seen here, adds some polish and elegance to my look. So, how else can you style this looK?
