10 Photos That Prove Teyonah Parris is an Unapologetically Black Style Icon

Teyonah Parris always looks absolutely gorgeous, whether she’s on the red carpet, at a photoshoot, or out and about. But lately, it seems as if she has been slaying to the tenth power, especially with her focus on Black American/African-Inspired looks. We also love how she tags the designer in her post and supports black business. Here are some of her latest and greatest:

This African Breast Plate top is definitely something we aren’t used to seeing, but want it in our closets now –

She rocked a satin head wrap to the ESPYs and absolutely KILLED IT –

She basically owned EssenceFest from head to toe (the dash of purple in her braids!) – 

These shorts are a summer night’s absolute dream –

This look is perfect for a Natural Hair Academy event, which Parris attended in Paris. Team Natural! –

At first glance, I honestly couldn’t tell if this is a dress or jumpsuit, but it doesn’t even matter –

Dressed up or down, this look is gorgeous –

This swimsuit belongs on a beach with a tropical drink –

This colorful top + afro puff = joy –

And last but certainly not least, she supports our young girls, which is the ultimate epitome of slay. For more information on the Uniquely You Summit, visit their website –
