The annual celebration of all things black culture known as Afropunk made its way back to Brooklyn over the weekend for two legendary days of music, art, and unbridled self-expression. People from all backgrounds and every corner of the globe joined New Yorkers to share in the festival's offerings, which included an epic musical lineup with performances by Jill Scott, FKA Twigs, Alabama Shakes lead vocalist Brittany Howard, and Santigold, to name a few. As per usual, we found ourselves completely captivated by the bold beauty looks put on display by this colorful set of festival-goers who continue to inspire us to push boundaries every single day. Ahead, the 20 looks we'll be putting on our mood boards.
