Somebody please give this girl a clue. I’ve got nothing against Bey’s little sis; I’m even feeling her new retro-inspired video for “I Decided”. But it seems everywhere I turn, Solange Knowles is committing some serious crimes of fashion. Her wardrobe choices of late lack a natural, spontaneous quality and generally don’t do her much justice. Something is always off kilter, whether it’s disproportionate, ill fitting, overwhelming or just doesn’t make sense. Either she’s trying too hard or not hard enough, and the poor thing just can’t seem to get it right. Here are some words of wisdom I think will ensure that her attempts at looking stylish/edgy/like you give a damn garners cheers, not jeers:
1. Check your stylist’s credentials before you pay her to send you down the red carpet in some repugnant, inexplicable getup.
2. Don’t take fashion advice from big sis. House of Dereon, anyone?
3. Get a 360-degree mirror a la What Not To Wear; you can’t go wrong.
4. Give the curly weaves a rest. It looks as feigned as your sense of style.
5. Understand that just because something doesn’t match it doesn’t mean it goes. And just because something matches doesn’t mean it goes.
