Solange Knowles: Fashion Beast

Chica's, it goes without saying that I am in love with Solange Knowles fashion statements. She dresses to impress and even her most relaxed looks are edgy and eye-catching. So, instead of repeating how much I adore this fashionista, let's just look at some pics together!

You'll be seeing some of these pieces and looks in upcoming blogs with my own spin on them of course! Until then...

Sincerely,

A Spring of Inspiration

Is anyone else dreading the winter already?! Well, I was over it before it started. I'm not a snow-loving kinda gal. I like it cool, but comfortable. Fall is truly my season and Spring is close second. This year I plan on taking my wardrobe to a new level and making it bolder, brighter, and more luxurious. I love thrifting, but I have an eye for expensive things (don't all of us women?).

Here a few inspirations that I'm going for:

I've always admired the femininity that Janelle Monae brings to menswear. I'm loving the denim short with suspenders. The only thing that's missing is the Warby Parkers! (geek specs)

Here, Janelle Monae is rocking some serious color. I love the impact that the different colors have all together and this neck piece is TO DIE FOR!!!! I'm trying to get my hair like this, too.

Beyonce: Such an amazing performer. She definitely puts to rest the myth that you can't look amazing, be comfortable and be a mom. This is definitely a casual, relaxed vacation in the Bahamas look.

I definitely need some rompers in my life! Note: Solange Knowles is a beast. Her look is ecclectic and refreshing. Everything I see her in, I love.... So, shout out to Solange Knowles for being my biggest fashion inspiration :)

More inspirations to come.... :)

Grammy Favorites

Morning Chica's! So, last night was Grammy night and the stars came out in their best... or worst, while the rest, didn't know what the heck to wear. If they needed a stylist, I could have helped. I tried not to focus on the negatives as much as the positive because there were several looks that I adored on the red carpet and off. So let's just dive right in with my faves!

Favorite #1: Adele is wearing Valentino and to be honest, I'm so glad that she chose to wear the shorter version, because the original would've been overwhelming for her figure. I love the color on Adele and these shoes are to die for, so cute.

Here she shows off an elegant tattoo of her son's initial... but I'm looking at her earrings. #vintage

Kelly Rowland, hats off to you because this dress is ridiculously gorgeous on you. I love the laser cutouts. This dress in any other color might not be so hot, but Ms. Rowland definitely rocked this Georges Chakra gown.

And surprisingly, I loved Solange Knowles emerald green Ralph & Russo Couture gown with the high split and train. The jury's still out about the choice of color for the shoes, but I think her hair looks fabulous and this dress flatters her. Love the shoulder detail of the dress.

Equally as stunning in this look. I'm a sucker for black and white, so I liked Beyonce in this jumpsuit by Osman Yousefzada, a young British designer. I just wish there was a pop of color, but that's just me. I love surprises!

Jennifer Lopez wearing Anthony Vaccarello... I love her shoes, clutch, and accessories! I want all those piece in my closet, but I can't decide whether I love it or hate it only because it's so plain for J. Lo. What do you think Chica's? Classically beautiful or boring black?

I like this look on Estelle, the pattern works for me and the colors against her skin tone are flattering.

Am I the only one who wants Janelle Monae to wear some color? She does rock the red lip tho :) #covergirl

Tyrese, Tyrese, Tyrese! You know you look good in this suit! Need I say more? 

NOW, FOR THE "OTHERS"....

You guys know I love yellow and I don't mind the yellow suit so much as I mind the blue shirt and hideous headband Frank Ocean wore for this performance.

I think that on the runway this dress is okay at best. But Florence Welch seems to be channeling something out of the Avatar movie in this iridescent dress by Givenchy. #alien I don't like it at all.

Last but not least...

What the hell were you thinking Nadeea?! #icant lol
