Celebrity Redo: Beyonce Knowles

Shoes hot.  Shorts cute.  But when put together with a safari-like jacket it just doesn’t work for the everyday gal.  Beyonce looks great, of course, but the outfit just seems too Hollywood. The shoes are a bit overpowering for the outfit and the shorts simply look out of place.  So I went ahead and swapped Beyonce’s denim shorts for a denim pencil skirt and added shoes that were more understated.  What do you think of Beyonce’s outfit?

Celebrity Redo: Beyonce Knowles

Beyonce is the perfect example of what happens when you wear too many trendy items all at once – it’s way too hectic and even great pieces look bad. To tone down the outfit, I swapped the caged heels for a simpler pair of caged-styled platform’s.  To give the outfit a softer look,  I traded in the fitted tank for the slub twist knot tank. Maybe even add some diamonds to the outfit, if you’re looking for just a little more flash. Tasteful and subtle jewelry can be a great touch when applied properly. Hope you like it!

Beyonce’s look, although adorable and trendy, can be tricky to pull off.  The key is to keep the outfit and accessories simple, without being afraid to have fun.  For example, don’t be afraid to throw on some platforms like Beyonce.   Suspenders are a fickle trend that comes and goes — so enjoy it while you can!  Get Beyonce’s look for less!
