Have a seat—a master class in Solange style is now in session.

Solange Knowles released her third EP, A Seat At The Table on Sunday, dropping music videos "Don't Touch My Hair" and "Cranes In The Sky." Described as a "beautiful piece of art," celebrities like Calvin Harris, Missy Elliott, Kat Graham and Lena Dunham rallied around the songstress to applaud her new work. Not suprisingly, Beyoncé went to Instagram to congratulate her little sister. 

The album is a celebration of Solange's authenticity and culture. Like her sister, the singer-songwriter matches empowering lyrics to mesmerizing visuals, inviting her listeners into a wonderland of music, fashion and storytelling.

Solange is the definition of a trendsetter with a long list of epic red-carpet moments, from the Met Gala to Oscars. She's eclectically chic, standing out with ease yet consistently wow-ing us with incredible pieces. When your mother is an award-winning designer and your sister won 2016 CFDA Fashion Icon Award, who can really be surprised by your sophisticated style? Solange has never been afraid to be daring, and even if we aren't a fan of every look, we always applaud her for trying something new.

We're giving her a standing ovation for her style in her latest music videos. Including the rebirth of the '90s puff jacket and chic athleisure looks, "Don't Touch My Hair" and "Cranes In The Sky" feature iconic moments for today's best styles.

Get the look from the four best style moments from Solange's new music videos.

Bomber Jackets, the Celeb Way

Leisurely Chic

Athletic wear has taken the fashion world by storm, and, really, who's complaining? Being equally chic and comfortable is always ideal. Track pants, leggings and sport bras make any look appear effortless, while metallic accessories elevate casual garments.

Chloe Striped Crepe Track Pants$1,295; L. Erickson 'Little Pearl' Bobby Pins, $28; Clarissa Cutout Crop Top, $228 $49.99; Jennifer Fisher Gold-Plated Earrings, $489; Cutaway Cateye Sunglasses, $40

Puff Queen

The '90s continue to make a comeback, and the puff coat has arrived again. Quilted, comfortable and warm, this throwback is back just in time for the cold-weather season. Solange sports an Acne Studio down coat (similar to this one), alongside her friends in stunning fur coats (another trend we're loving).

Desert Angel

Solange confirms that the "no white after Labor Day" rule isn't a thing anymore in this scene taken from "Cranes In The Sky." Compared to her rustic environment, she looks angelic in her white ruffled dress and slim pants. We're loving this look for the fall. Instead of stockings, try pairing pants with your dress.

Self-Portrait Ruffled Lace Mini Dress, $395; Zara Split Suede Crossbody Bag with Tassels, $35.90; Mango Flowy Straight-Fit Trousers, $79.99; Drift Riot Circle Line Studs, $80; Dolce Vita Amina Heels, $190

Belle of Bells

Solange is clearly in tune with the bell sleeve and off-shoulder trends. The expanded sleeves elevate this otherwise simple pink dress to be somewhat regal, while her exposed shoulder and thigh make it sexy, without being risque. Combine these trends to make a very feminine, visually captivating ensemble.

Simone Rocha Oversized Sparkle Wool-Blend Coat, $3,168; Kate Spade Mullins Place Pouch, $198; Genuine People Round Two-Tine Oversized Sunglasses, $49 $39; Zara Leather Sandals with Bow, $119; 1-01 Babaton Emin Dress, $195 $79.99
