Avoid shouting colors like yellow, or pink though. depending on what you wear at the bottom, jewelry can include ankles, rings, necklaces, and bangles. You can also include a head wrap without risking looking overdone.
3.Bottom only.
Well-fitted pants mean you have a lot of options for the top. However, since this is a kitenge, avoid oversized t-shirts. Instead, opt for we’ll fitting t-shirts that you can tuck in.
