She's Got STYLE: Solange

Click to enlarge & admire

I have been a fan of Solange since she dropped her first album 10-15 years ago (Solo Star), even then her sense of style was unique, it was around the time all the celebrities were looking like Beyonce or Jlo clones- Long lightened hair extensions, tight, bright brand-emblazoned outfits with tan midriff showing & bling accessories. 

Solange came out with dark auburn braids, bohemian-earthy tones in a cool, urban but feminine cut. The style could be called hippy-chick, but in a young modern way. The look really made her stand out and i fell in love with her style as well as her music from then on.



She has always gotten attention, especially in the last few years, from editors, stylists, fashion websites etc. A total risk taker, she seems to effortlessly mix and match patterns and textures to give her 'fits that wow factor.
A few years ago she made a big decision to embrace her natural curly african hair texture- If you don't already know, this is a huge deal for any woman during these times. 
Anyway it suits her down to the ground and only added to her appeal in my humble opinion.

This creative lady has a lot of impressive titles to her name, including: Singer, Actress, Song-Writer, Dancer, Musician, Designer, Painter, CEO of her own record label, and Mother. Just to name a few :-)
