21For a long time,I have been fascinated by other cultures, the way they speak, their music, traditions and especially the way they dress. And, for me Africa tops the list. Years ago, I discovered beautiful ceramic beads handmade by women in Kenya. These  are Kazuri beads, which in Swahili, means "small and beautiful."

For some women, wearing ethnic chic can be a deliberate choice to make a social or political statement about issues like cultural appropriation, diversity, and representation in fashion. It can be a way to challenge mainstream beauty standards and promote inclusivity and acceptance of diverse cultural identities.

 Overall, wearing ethnic chic can be a deeply personal choice that reflects a woman's values, interests, and sense of identity, while also contributing to a more diverse and inclusive fashion landscape.
