Akua Shabaka
You can take one look at this image and get a very clear sense of who Akua is – fierce, empowered, and, undoubtedly, a lover of all things 70s.
Her look is the perfect marriage of individuality and personal style, which I (as well as everyone here in the studio) have always appreciated. That is the purpose and underlying tone of our street style series. It’s very inspiring to come across a woman (or man) who can so naturally exude their inner self through the adornments of their exterior.
I totally dig this outfit, yes. Could I rock it in the same fashion as Akua? Probably not.
She owns this ensemble, and rightfully so.
Akua wears everything vintage
Interesting!

Yes, yes, yes, but…if you asked me, I’d say there could be one element of this look from the current decade or a whimsical something to keep it from being so literal and serious. Anyway, loving her natural hair and scarf choker.
This fashion trend looks awesome, jeans look awesome with the jacket.
