Badu = Badass

I can see why Erykah Badu and Andre Benjamin were once a couple; they're both intelligent, musically gifted and can boast sick style!

I'm sure they must have shared clothing and accessories on the regular.

Here are some of Badu's Greatest Hits (of fashion), in my opinion:

I love her hats (another thing she and Andre have in common), natural hair, nods to Americana (IE: overalls, denim shirts) and use of supersaturated colors.

Sartorial Out(k)cast

Andre Benjamin, AKA Andre 3000, has some serious fashion chops. Let's investigate:

I love that he always wears a hat, and often plays with vibrant, delicious colors. Andre is the man; not just in music, but also in fashion.

The Sartorial Sixties: Made in Dagenham

Made in Dagenham (2010) was a pretty good movie. The late 1960's clothes and accessories, however, were better than good...They were phenomenal!

Check it out:

Loving the orange tank top and matching hot pants, as well as the white shoes. The green and orange shift dress is to die for, as well!

This beehive makes me want one of my own. It also makes me miss Amy Winehouse desperately. Can we talk about that cat eye makeup scenario, too? Amazing.

I think Rosamund Pike's character was my favorite in terms of style. She wore some impossibly chic frocks, not to mention THESE puppies (see above): some kind of seriously divine jade hoop earrings. *Swoon*!

Here's Rosamund again, looking tragically fashionable in a red dress and vintage car. Why do blondes get to look so amazing in red? Not fair! ;op

If you're in desperate need of cute cardigans, slimming A-line skirts and poppin' accessories from the late 60's, we've got some era-appropriate goodies percolating in here at the shop.
