8 Standout Solange Style Moments in Honor of Her Vogue Best-Dressed Status

Style bible Vogue has just released its annual Best Dressed list, and only one pop star made it into the top ten. The lucky lady is none other than Solange Knowles, Brooklyn It Girl and, of course, Bey's little sis. Solange has flirted with fashion lots over the past year, from attending countless red-carpet events to going as J.Crew creative director Jenna Lyons' date to the CFDA Fashion Awards (a grown-up, Vogue-approved version of prom, otherwise known as fashion's Oscars) to DJing designer Diane von Furstenberg's Fashion's Night Out party. Oh, and she also dabbled in modeling as the face of Madewell. Now, she's been officially minted a Style Icon. It's about time. Solange generally looks great all the time (how annoying, right?) but she really turned it on this year. Here, her 15 best looks from 2012. Look and learn ladies, look and learn.

3. How cute is this? Though the dress is certainly attention-grabbing, Solange pairs it with equally fun gold-and-black heels and simple gold jewelry. She donned this getup for the opening night of the ballet in NYC in October.

4. On most anyone else a pink shorts suit and a graphic black-and-white turtleneck would look silly, but Solange manages to make it chic. And the matching heels? Love.
