Solange Knowles Front Row @ New York Fashion Week

The usual suspects have been spotted front row at shows during New York Fashion Week but one girl has stood out, managing to look effortless and stylish as she hopped from show to show wearing fancy footwear, avoiding snow boots at all costs.

Noor by Noor: In her Pre-Fall 2014 outfit, the singer layered a blue printed sweater over a striped shirt, opting for a conservative black skirt, with standout Michael Kors ‘Sahar’ pumps and a chic white Kate Spade New York ‘Georgica Road Emmanuelle’ clutch rounding out her look.

Milly: I had to catch my breath when I saw this look. It might be too bold for some but I’m buying everything she’s selling here, from the electric-blue Milly coat and matching faux-fur-trimmed clutch to the orange separates and pink Rupert Sanderson ‘Elba’ pumps that matched her lip colour. I think I even prefer this look over her Carven outfit.

Honor: Turning down the dial on colour, the singer wore an Honor look consisting of a sheer blouse, black collarless blazer and printed double-split skirt, styled with terracotta Rupert Sanderson ‘Elba’ pumps and an M2Malletier ‘Amor Fati’ leather shoulder bag with a gold needle handle.

Solange Knowles In Carven – Miu Miu Women’s Tales 7th Edition -’Spark & Light’ Screening

Solange Knowles attended the Miu Miu Women’s Tales 7th Edition ‘Spark & Light’ screening held at Diamond Horseshoe on Tuesday (February 11) in New York City.

The singer either didn’t get the memo or she did what she does best: march to the beat of her own fashion drum.

Looking possibly her best yet, Solange had me at those bright-pink Rupert Sanderson ‘Elba’ pumps, but everything here is setting my fashion senses on fire including her off-the-shoulder Carven Resort 2014 frock with playful ruffled sleeves.

Green and pink? Who else could make these colours work so perfectly together?

While the green eye shadow may have been just one step too far for some, the look is flawless from H2T for me.

I’ll be checking this in my BDOTY file.

You can buy Solange’s Carven Off-The-Shoulder Dress from Net-A-Porter.com, Matches Fashion Global and Matches Fashion UK.

Solange Knowles In Azede Jean-Pierre – Spotify and Troy Carter Pre-GRAMMY Music + Tech Party

Solange Knowles attends the Spotify and Troy Carter Pre-GRAMMY Music + Tech Party held at Atom Factory on Thursday (January 23) in Culver City, California.

Working a blunt cut ‘fro Solange wore a Azede Jean-Pierre Spring 2014 cropped jacket with a standing collar, three-dimensional insect embroidery, and bracelet-length sleeves with matching skirt with a saddle hemline which she has worn back to front as the original skirt has a high-waistline.

I love that once again she is not following the herd, supporting lesser-known designers, making the look her own and wearing it well.

Beyonce Knowles In Naeem Khan – 60th Birthday Masquerade Party

Beyonce Knowles attended her mother’s 60th birthday masquerade party in New Orleans on Saturday (January 11), which was also attended by her sister Solange Knowles, Destiny’s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland, and ‘DreamGirls’ co-star Jennifer Hudson.

The singer looked stunning wearing a Naeem Khan Resort 2014 blush V-front caviar-beaded tulle gown with a selection of gold Lorraine Schwartz jewels including stunning teardrop earrings and, of course, a mask, which was embellished with sequins.

Mama Knowles in the middle is looking just as beautiful as her daughters in a breathtaking black-caramel-and-metallic-copper gown with waist-narrowing capabilities.

Solange opted for a Cedric Charlier Resort 2014 canary-yellow strapless gown, adding some sparkle via her multi-coloured mask.

Solange Knowles In Clover Canyon & Mary Katrantzou – Instagram

The mistress of prints was at it again and doing ‘it’ in fine fashion.

As you know Solange Knowles is currently down under performing at various events, but is seems that she’s saving the reason why I love her–her love for prints–for Instagram.

Look One: For New Year’s Eve, she wore a spunky Clover Canyon Resort 2014 dress with an amazon jungle print, wood and straw photo collage dress with a flounce skirt. She offset her look with simple, black cut-out sandals and cat eye sunglasses.

Look Two: Posted on Instagram the a few days later, Solange wore a Mary Katrantzou Resort 2014 ‘Kite’ efflorescent silk halter romper that features a poppy field print backed with hazy mountains atop a graphic grid of building blocks on the short. Circular shade, a frosty pink lip colour and black ankle Jimmy Choo Freya strap booties finished up her look.

I love them equally, so you pick the best look.

Solange Knowles In Paper London – Falls Music and Arts Festival

Solange Knowles performed on stage during the Falls Music and Arts Festival on Sunday (December 29) in Lorne, Australia.

Wearing all red, the singer donned a high-neck sleeveless crop top with matching culottes, which I’m sure we will see a lot of over the coming weeks.

Back to sporting braids, the singer and fashionista styled her look with yellow, orange and red pvc Fendi Spring 2014 sandals with a white heel and a bold red lip.

I love the outfit, but her shoes are on another level of fabulous.

Hair Trend Spotting: Braids

There’s no easier way to enhance your everyday hairstyle. Whether it’s a ponytail or a quick fix to keeping your tresses out of your face, celebrities are obsessed this season with braids.

Katy Perry pulled off a lengthy braided ponytail at the 15th NRJ Music Awards. For a full braid like hers clip-in extensions are a must.

Solange Knowles loves wearing box plaits, and she should, because they look great on her. To get this side swept style let the ends unravel freely.

Olivia Palermo, the braid connoisseur, wore two braids with her chignon at the 2013 Marie Claire Prix de la Moda Awards. The key to this look is using minimal product to achieve the ladylike softness.

Zoe Saldana’s braid is perfectly (un) done. For the effortless chic look curl hair first and tie a black ribbon on the tip of the loosely braided coils.

Is it just the celebrities, or are you obsessed with braids this season too?
