by Kat Collings

If you were on Instagram last weekend, you know Afropunk took over Brooklyn for its annual two-day festival. The lineup was impressive, featuring some WWW favorites including Janelle Monáe, Erykah Badu, and Lion Babe, but we found the street style even more notable. Scroll down to take a peek at the looks that we couldn’t help but share.

Afropunk 2018 ???????????? — as the festival landed on the anniversary of Aaliyah’s passing, I decided to rep her and her style for the weekend. Here’s to camo, baggy pants, crop tops and sunnies. RIP BABYGIRL. ????✨
