<<<<<<< Jamrock >>>>>>>
This Spring I was finally able to return to my beloved Jamaica for the first time since the start of the pandemic. It had been four long years, and I was beyond ready to jump back into my sweet island vibes. Packing for Jamrock is a joy because, as I always mention, it is the place where my style is truly rooted. For this return, my suitcase was filled with the cues that have informed my aesthetics from the moment I could see clearly; vibrant color, bold prints, clashing motifs and sparkling, intricately woven textiles. Here are seven looks that helped me fall right back into the electric rhythm of my beautiful country.
