I had the pleasure of sort of seeing Janelle Monae perform at the Afropunk Festival last weekend (does from the sidewalk behind a chain-link fence count?) Obstacles aside, I was able to fully appreciate that girl's moves as well as her amazing voice. The only way I can describe her is FUN. She's just really freaking fun to see live.
I also respect her dedication to menswear and even more so her strictly black and white wardrobe. She is one of the few ladies who can pull off suspenders and saddle shoes ALL THE TIME. I'm thinking this fall I'm going to follow her lead. Not that I could pull off that 80's vibe, but it just seems so easy to hop out of bed and throw on some black slacks and black sweater and maybe trade the saddle shoes for a pair of Converse.
