Solange for H&M Mexico

Sometimes it pays to speak another language other than English and since I speak fashion in several languages, I often find what I want. Not only did our favorite Afrolista, Solange Knowles dodge Hurricane Sandy, she was "en Mexico" for the inauguration of the new H&M store opening.

Things were getting so bad since there was no Solange sighting that old photos of her were being reblogged on Tumblr, so expect these three to pop up today on the sites that are supposed to be her so called fan sites.

My Favorite Looks From The Concrete Catwalks @ NYFW 2013 RTW

My favorite looks from the concrete catwalk during New York Fashion Week 2013 RTW: 


Herieth Paul on the streets of NYC.
New York is one of the worlds fashion capitals when it comes to individual style and beauty and all the best looks first start on the streets before they get on the designer catwalks. Women of all backgrounds and ethnicity's were rocking bold patterns and colors. Long skirts and short dresses in shear fabrics and embellishments.

Notice me. Look at my style. Looks that don't cry for attention will always catch the photographers eye. Shoes that were made for walking and some that were just not fit to even walk in and yet the wearers point-of-view came through. Denim in all kinds of hues and styles and piles of accessories that served as a constant inspiration to designers for the coming seasons. In reality, I take my cues from the street when it comes to interpreting a look that I like and celebrity style has never played a part in it.

Solange Knowles For the September Issue of Elle Magazine and Madewell's F/W 2012 Campaign

The September issues are coming out and as usual, they're heavier than ever with several new ad campaigns, fall advertisements and editorials. I have yet to see Vogue's, but Elle Magazine didn't disappoint with stunning editorial's featuring Jeneil Williams and several other models and a cool editorial featuring Solange at her Brooklyn home. 

After posting these photos, I guarantee that the actual ones shot for the magazine will be posted right after these.


Solange's home certainly is a total reflection of her.
 

I must say Solange is literally on a roll, especially since she is the new face of Madewell's FW 2012-13 Ad Campign which has every one buzzing.

Looks like it will be a great collection so check it out at Madewell.com for more info.

Happy Birthday Naomi Campbell!!!

May has been a phenomenal month so far and what a great way to celebrate some of my favorites who have inspired me most of my life with a shout out on their birthdays. I didn't post Grace Jones birthday, but I send out a belated greeting to the queen of  individuality and "Feroshness" who turned a fabulous 64 years old on May 19. Naomi Campbell turns a fabulous 42 years old today and I can honestly say that both women are O40&Fab!

Happy Birthday to one of the most stylish women on the planet!

Le Look Du Jour: Solange Knowles in Gucci SS/2012 RTW

COO of DKMS Americas, Katharina Harf and Solange Knowles 


I wish that I could find a lone photo of Solange with a front view of her entire look, but this will do. It seems that Solange changed out of her gorgeous Stéphane Rolland gown to attend or possibly DJ the event at the DKMS after party held at Andaz Wallstreet.

She's wearing a GUCCI fringed leather skirt and the silk-georgette bodysuit from their SS/2012 RTW collection.

"Fro's" We Love: Solange Knowles For Complex Magazine

I promised myself on my day off that I would not get online, well I lied once again after I saw these photos of Solange Knowles roll through my Tumblr dashboard. 
Solange has struck another home run in another 'printastic' fashion editorial and this time it's for Complex Magazine. I know Solange loves her prints and I'm sure she can wear anything, but pretty soon the all print editorials will start to get boring so please fashion editors, dress her in some couture and watch her rock it out!
