Two weeks from today, my friend Allison (see her here) and I will be going
to a concert that could possibly change our livese: Beyoncé’s. Such an
important event warrants an even more important outfit, I mean it’s Beyoncé we’re talking about. But where
do I start? In my quest to find the best outfit I decided that I have two
options:
1)
The obvious “freakum” dress alternative
2)
The less-obvious (yet more comfortable) “cool”
girl clothing that Beyoncé herself would wear on a stroll with Shawn and Blue Ivy
The Freakum Dress
For those of you familiar with Beyonce’s Freakum Dress song, she describes the
dress as “short and backless.” While it would be fun to done a true freakum
dress, standing in a crowd of screaming Beyoncé fans is not the ideal time.
Fierce Street Style
We all know that the outfits Bey wears in her music videos
and on the red carpet are stunning, but her day-to-day fashion is just as
enviable. For a more comfortable concert outfit, I looked to Beyoncé’s street
style for inspiration, which normally includes skinny jeans and heels. My friend Allison is considering taking the skinny jeans one
step further by wearing leather leggings instead.
But no matter what route I take, I have to keep in mind WWBW:
