all over the sol-angel

i apologise for coming on a little too strong with the Destiny's Child-related posts in the recent past. first, i dissed talked about Beyonce's weave, and then i criticized pointed out Kelly's overt sexiness ,and then only yesterday i was googling images of Michelle's new music video! (the outfits are AMAZING).

It might seem like i'm a tad obsessed with the babes but i assure you, i am only currently obsessed with one destiny sister. Solange Knowles.


i swear don't know how it happened!
one day i was commenting on the fact that while she did bear a resemblance to her sister, she appeared to have been born on get-an-ugly-sibling day; the next day i was shamefacedly humming along to 'i decided', and next thing you know, BAM!! i want to know what its like on the Street of Hadley dreams, and i've decided that i too wanna be at the sandcastle disco... 
i think she has the most striking physiognomy(there - my big word of the day) and, upon extensive research, i have found that this hot mama - literally - is no doormat; her outspokenness often putting her in high consideration for the 'oops!' awards. But i'll spare you the character reference.

her style is edgy, funky, unapologetic, and so fresh. granted, in the past this has tilted to the over fresh and pushed her way over the style edge (let's say nothing about her wardrobe malfunction at NYFW), but it is the entirety that concerns me.
a little visual assistance:

The photos i was able to unearth revealed her love of furry fashion pieces. 
now the outfit on the left at first gave me cause to arch my furry brow, but in the spirit of adoration i decided to forgive it, thanks to the very cool leggings, hot shoes, and of course, the pretty necklace.
the one on the right however, i completely love, down to the sexy shoes in just the right colour to add a certain unexpected something to the outfit (i find i love blue). as for what appears to be a Fendi cuff on her wrist, i found that it is a recurring theme in her wardrobe, as seen below:


more furry luvin' for miz knowles here. notice the shoes? oh come on, they're cute! 
here's where the Fendi cuff makes its second appearance.

i adore the look on the left - she is too a rock star! and that yellow is the perfect complement to her skin tone. and those earrings!
and then on the right, she manages to exude sophistication without losing the edge. the pink clutch and green skirt do not clash as they might have had she not opted for black in the rest of the outfit, and her face is flawless. *sigh*


oh and this final look... words fail me. stunning!
the uber cool geek frames, the reflective dress, tha fabulous hair and the oh so modelesque pose...
can i just say? iHEART!

clearly there's a lotta lurve in my heart for this babe. 
but tell me, what do you think? have i been too hasty in my declaration of love?
