Celebrity style:Who Wore it Better?Solange Knowles vs. Monica in Roberto Cavalli’s Spring 2012 Printed Satin Blazer

by Jihan

Solange Knowles and her “questionable,” “undefined” 4c curl pattern was spotted at the‘See What Unfolds’ event at the Trident stand in Times Square. For the evening, she opted for a black top, shorts, clear strap Pierre Hardy sandals, and a $3,660 printed satin blazer from Roberto Cavalli‘s Spring 2012 collection. She completed the look with her trusty $325 bright pink CC Skye Niki clutch.

If the blazer looks familiar, it’s because Monica Brown wore the exact same one to perform at her Mother’s Day concert at the James L. Knight center in Atlanta. The singer chose a similar color palette, betting on a black blouse, jeans, and black Christian Louboutin Daffodile pumps

 

Both Monica and Solange chose to anchor the blazer with all (or in Solo’s case, mostly) black. While I think she could have gone with a funkier combination, I think Solo rocked it better. There’s just something about the way she carries herself that uplifts the whole look! And can we get into the hair and makeup? 

* Both Cassie and Rita Ora(Rihanna's look alike) wore the sequined version of this blazer. Which version do you like better? Who rocked the look best?
