who wore what: urban nectar

we blogged about the unveiling of Zebra Living's new collection, Urban Nectar, last week. while we're waiting on close-up pictures of the pieces, here are a few things that stood out for us:



is that an ankara pocket square MC mr. kelechi odu is wearing?? we've died and gone to fashion heaven! ankara is truly the fabric that keeps giving :-)



pictured above is the super talented Dolapo James of urbanknit rocking one of her supersnap clutches. we want, we want, we need! get yours here!



finally, here's the designer of Zebra herself, ms. ugoma ebilah, wearing one of the most resplendent pieces from that evening. gotta have it! speaking of ms. ebilah, fashionafrica has a wonderful interview with her here...and we LOVEEEE this dress she's wearing:
