Chic Reads: Solange Knowles blazes the pages of French Glamour

Once again Solange Knowles makes her fashion mark in a super fly editorial for French Glamour Magazine's July 2012 issue. The always stylish Solange, looks model worthy for the shoot. Although styled, somehow Solange manages to still infuse her undeniable twist and fashion personality. Enjoy these chic images and interview snippets!

"My style is very eclectic as I like to take risks, but I always cling to glamorous touches and classic details. I’m not necessarily inspired by magazines or fashion. I surf a lot on blogs and find it cool to see real style from real people. My travels also influence me. I always take lots of pictures, and then inject all those inspirations into my wardrobe, my home decor, or my makeup. And we can’t forget the icons: Diana Ross, Erykah Badu, Bjork, and Lauryn Hill."

"My hair is not very important to me….so i don’t encourage it to be important to you. Im very emotional today (involving something else) , so i’m letting the momentum of that help me to express the fact that…I dont want to talk about no damn hair…..no mo."

Solange is not just her hair, but she rocks it so well! I love this skirt and metallic jacket combo!

"If you have different prints, both pieces have to have the same fabric. Certain colors like violet and pink also work well with animal prints. And then, you have to create a certain harmony; I avoid mixing African patterns with Aztec prints, for example."

MoMA Garden Party: Solange Knowles

Solange Knowles was guest and DJ at the after party for Tuesday night's Museum of Modern Art annual Garden Party Benefit in NYC. Solange looked pretty chic, as usual in a one leg floral print and blazer combination by Italian  fashion and textile designer Flaminia Saccuci and nude pumps

“A little peekaboo is a lot sexier than putting it all out there,” Solange said of her floral print dress. “Touch it, “It’s latex.”

Celebrity Chic: Solange Knowles on Mother's Day

Solange Knowles was spotted out an about delivering gifts, and taking a bike ride with her son as she celebrated Mother's Day. Seemingly effortless and simple, but major chic is Solange in a yellow top and cute bow accented shorts. I would rock this look in a heartbeat!

Solange can often be seen in yellow, most recently at the Met Gala. Here she accents it with a red bag and studded Azzedine "Alaia" Suede Flat sandals.

Celebrity Chic: Solange in Stéphane Rolland Couture

Solange Knowles made an red carpet appearance at the  6th Annual DKMS Against Blood Cancer Gala with minimal to no makeup. Still a fashion beast; Solange looks fabulous in a stunning Stéphane Rolland Spring 2012 Couture Gown with sculptural detailed hips and gold plated waist accent. She also chose minimal accessories, just a gold cuff and rings and hair pulled back in a chic bun. I would like to think Solange is making a point with her scalled down look for the charitable event. I must admit without makeup her skin looks flawless, but perhaps a little color would have been a nice addition.

Is less more?

Next to Ashanti in full makeup, in my opinion she still looks good.
