Style Transformation: Solange

Just like others before her, when Solange Knowles stepped into the spotlight, she opted for  cookie-cutter style; short, tight dresses, sky high heels and long flowing locks. She looked gorgeous, but somewhere along the line she changed her mind. As her music took a turn for the eclectic, so did her style. The uptown beauty headed for downtown chic then made a detour to Bohemian glamour. We are loving her now trademark Afro, bold prints, and head-turning accessories. Check out how this good girl morphed from cute to cutting edge, then tell us: is she a style icon?
