Solange Knowles Does Risky Fashion Right

Prepare for a lesson in fierce fashion done right from Beyoncé's little sister

Pay attention because Solange Knowles is offering up a free lesson on making risky fashion choices work.

Step one: Go for a daredevil pattern. This Ostwald Helgason print is bold, but the wide, criss-cross stripes really work with the cut of the dress. Step two: Make sure it features wild colors. Blues, whites and tans are tricky in a simple patter, but here they work in perfect harmony.

Step three: The shorter the better. The flare on the skirt makes this micro mini feel flirty instead of overly sexy. Step four: Don't forget some killer shoes! This diva knows footwear is the finishing touch and her gold-toed Nicholas Kirkwood are the cherry on top.

We'd advise you to write that all down, but chances are Beyonce's little sis will provide a refresher course during her next red carpet walk.
