Beyonce style-homages Zoe Kravitz in a hippie ensemble: cute or try-hard?

Beyonce

Here are some new photos of a Blue-less Beyonce out and about in NYC yesterday. These photos made me sigh with pleasure, because in just one moment, I remembered how much I used to enjoy wearing long, peasant-style skirts like this. Beyonce usually doesn’t rock this kind of look – she’s mostly into skin-tight jeans and skirts, everything super-fitted, and maybe the odd “bombshell” gown or Grecian-gown. Bey usually doesn’t do loose, informal, easy-going casual looks. The skirt is… too busy for my tastes. And she should have paired it with flats, not heels. But I like the effort. I like that she’s “homage-ing” Zoe Kravitz a little bit. I like the pink top too, and I don’t actively hate the hat. Plus, it’s nice to see to her not wearing the color blue, right? (There is some blue in the skirt, but shhhhhhh….)

Also – the pink top makes Beyonce look busty. Almost like she’s breastfeeding? Her boobs looked small in that Victoria Beckham dress last week though. Hmm…

Two nights ago, Beyonce was out with Blue – I’m including those photos below. Apparently, it was a “late night” visit to a doctor’s office for Bey, Blue and Tina Knowles. I hope Blue is doing okay. Late-night doctor visits are rarely good news. In these photos, Bey is once again pressing blue against her body, and it really brings out the concern-troll in me, but I’ll let it slide. For a brief moment, I’ll hand Beyonce some sympathy – it must suck to be swarmed by paparazzi when you’re exiting a doctor’s office with your 11-week-old baby in your arms. Truly. Also: we get to see a little bit of Blue’s curly black hair and her little feet again! Yay.

    Trying hard to fill the overwhelming emptiness. She is so fake.

    • Mimi says:

      Nice one.

    • Mimi says:

      Thinking the outfit is more homage to heinous than hippie…

    • Marlita Simms says:

      And you know this because? So envious, so bitter lol! Now look in the mirror and repeat – She got that life, She worked hard for it, my hating on her success wont change my life. Please God help me to become a positive person, not this angry, hateful person I see before me’

      That outta work 😉

      • OlsenTriplet says:

        I don’t think this comment is jealousy so much as annoyance. They’ve done nothing to deserve this much press except perhaps fake a pregnancy.

  2. paola says:

    I call BOOB JOB! she used the breast feeding excuse to finally have what she didn’t have before because it would have been to obvious…now she can blame the ‘pregnancy’!

  3. Neelyo says:

    I’m sure the baby’s fine. The late night visit was because they had to make sure the doctor’s office was clear of all other patients first.

    • Tapioca says:

      Yes! I imagine Beyonce thinks all those peasants there in the day time with their non-holy children would be whipping out their mobile phones to play paparazzo in the waiting room.

      Don’t private docs make home calls if you’re rich? It’s not like she was sneaking to the office, since she’s clearly DRESSED UP for the doctor’s visit. Paps on speed dial for that “loving mother” photo op do we think?

  4. Leigh says:

    Dislike.

  5. marie says:

    I actively hate the hat..but that may be because I’m not a hat person, my head’s shaped like an egg with ears..

    • Cherry says:

      Looks like Bey is not a hat person, either. It makes her look silly, like a teenage girl who plundered her mom’s closet. Also, note the shoes: those are typical mom shoes.

  6. islandgirl says:

    hate it all! waaaaay too try hard – looks like she raided her sister solange’s closet but where solange makes it look funky, bey just looks like she’s playing dress up!

    • Cherry says:

      I just saw your comment after I posted mine, but as you can see, I agree 100%. Borowed dress-up outfit. Also, IMO this hippie style doesn’t work on a full-figured girl. You have to be tiny to pull it off, otherwise you just look like you’re wearing a curtain.

  7. Del says:

    IMO, she should lose the hat. Not cool with the rest of her clothing.

  8. Naye in VA says:

    i hate to say it but her boobs look after-baby lower to me. sigh. maybe she was preggo

  9. salamanca says:

    Yeah, and it looks like she had a explanation to improve (with implants)her boobs. Brestfeeding, duh.

  10. Nanz says:

    I like the outfit. But she needs sandals or something. The shoes are wrong. I hope the baby is OK.

  11. deb says:

    holy burn my eyes and see shirt-shaped shadows everywhere, batman!

  12. backwards says:

    I dislike her with a passion but a part of me feel sorry for her having to push through all those photographers with a tiny baby in your arms.

  13. Eric says:

    That baby looks very stiff like a Reborn doll, the feet are too stiff for it to be a real baby, won’t see the real baby face for a long time, she don’t want to remind people it’s a Hispanic baby

  14. Franny says:

    Those sunglasses don’t do anyone favors…why do people insist on wearing them?!

  15. mememe says:

    She looks adorable.

  16. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    As always she get it wrong. Black pumps with that outfit? Why? Just why? You can tell she has absolutely no personal style.

    Normally I don’t judge a person on their style if the style is their own and they doing their thing not caring a fuck what we think. But when you have a fashion line and you act as if what you wear matters, at least learn about fashion and learn how to wear trends and what not.

    Zoe has a hippie style because her parents are hippie, free spirited people. It makes sense. Bey on the other hand, a complete trend whore and has no idea what to do with it.

    Victoria Beckham has a great personal style AND she wears her own shit because she knows it won’t fall apart at the seams if she merely two steps on the dance floor.

  17. FOREVER says:

    Fashion fail as usual, this woman has no style at all😱

  18. Jenna says:

    Was Beyonce ever busty to begin with? She looks kind small to me…anywho, she needs to stop. That skirt, the hat. Not to mention those horrible sunglasses that I wish would disappear from the face of the earth.

  19. Isa says:

    I don’t understand this style. Why don’t women want to be pretty anymore?? How old is Blue now? Perhaps it’s for her two month check up?

  20. Nev says:

    not a fashionista.

    ask kate moss or zoe kravitz or solange.

  21. lrm says:

    i know the pumps are the first thing that caught my eye as well….she just needs gold hoop earrings and she’s set.

    i mean, she def. looks like she’s a middle class, fairly mainstream atlanta housewife who bought the latest hippie chic skirt at marshall’s. uugh.

    so not ‘style’, just wearing a skirt and hat. i’m so sick of her and that husband, seriously, why are they everywhere all the time?

    • Mark Klunes says:

      I take it you’re single huh?! This thread is ridiculous for the most part. Much of the comment on here is totally rooted in plain and simple minded jealousy rather than any informed opinion on style. I wonder what most of you will be wearing tomorrow – the same old routine outfits you always wear? Quite possibly! Bey may not always be a headlining fashionista but she’s trying something new, let the woman be! The constructive fashion critique is all good but the bitchyness is not cool at all, quite sad actually.

  22. Marlita Simms says:

    My God, some if you chicks drank a double shot of haterade damn!! Put it down and step away – Sooo bitter – its not cute!!

    I love that Bey is experimenting, who says you have to stay in one lane? but those shoes no no no! A nice wedge sandle or ballerina slipper (Chanel do fab ones), gold hoops – good to go!

  23. anonymoose says:

    The upside is that her legs are covered in loose flowing fabric down to her ankles, not in some spray-on leggings. It balances her bottom-heaviness off.

    Of course, the goggles, the giant hoop earrings, THE Boy-George HAT, the shoes*, and the heavy/boring/ugly shoulder bag work against the success of this outfit. Why does she really want to hurt us (our eyes)?

    *Happy to see that the shoes are not her usual hideous platform stripper shoes though!

  24. dahlia1947 says:

    THis is the ugliest outfit I have ever seen in my life. Dorky glasses and dorky hat. She must be high.

  25. Happy21 says:

    The outfit as a whole tells me she is trying to hard. Putting the glasses, the hat AND the skirt and shirt is just too much. The shoes are TERRIBLE and do not go with the outfit at all. She should lose those glasses and the hat and trade the pumps for some gladiator sandals.

    As far as her boobs go, I’m pretty she Bey was always fairly busty…

  26. Bite me says:

    Tacky as always

  27. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    I’m always happy when there is only one Beyonce supporter in a crowd of non. It warms the cockles. It means the job is getting done.

    • LuckiestLibra says:

      LOL I 2nd that.

    • anonymoose says:

      Please tell me when the job is done! Everything about this useless woman is fake, from her “talent” to her pregnancy to her new boobs.

      Hope she changes diapers for awhile and leaves us alone.

    • Karissa Jones says:

      Actually, I second the positive comment above. You all are way to obsessed with putting down your fellow sisters. It’s rather sad to see so Many of you ACTIVELY rejoicing in beating down on someone it’s highly likely you’ve never had a conversation with. Very sad indeed.

        Do you not understand this is a celebrity gossip site? People are going to post their points of view on a site like this-that’s it’s entire reason for being.

        If it troubles you so much, you’re probably better off just reading Star magazine and avoiding websites where people express their opinions.

      • FOREVER says:

        You sound so silly, it’s called celebitchy duhh… Get a grip if you want to worship her go to get website. Only stevie wonder can look at this outfit and think it looks good.

    Her guard seems like he would jump in front of a bullet for her. Paycheck, or no check. Call me crazy but I think they would make a good couple and have hot sex. It looks like he worships her and seems Chivalrous.

  29. Sugar says:

    I dunno I’d wear the skirt w/my beat up birkenstocks but then again I’m just a little ol tree hugger in Oregon
    On second thought it would clash with my hula hoop. The skirt itself tries to hard to be what it isn’t.

  30. db says:

    Bey is an earth mother now? LOL
    the other day uptown I saw an enormous black Mercedes super van and I thought, Oh the Z’s must be taking the baby out for a “stroll”

  31. It is ME!! says:

    That hat does her five-head no favors.

    And for the jokers on here telling the “haters” to get a life, you might want to take your own advice, since you are taking time out of YOUR life to defend a woman you don’t even know like she is your mom or something.

    Bey-stans, feel free to exit, stage left even, to a website that worships her.

  32. kris says:

    Beyonce is usually much more stylish then this. She usually looks great, this is awful. And Zoe Kravitz is the queen of “try-hard”. She usually just ends up looking like a vagrant. But I guess thats fashion nowdays, what with people calling her a “fashionista” and all..
