Beyonce might be a style icon to many around the world, but her little sister Solange Knowles has snubbed her in favour of Michelle Obama.
The mother-of-one revealed that American’s First Lady is right up there on her style icon list because she has the ability to ‘empower’ women.
''Not only is Michelle's style just stunning, but I love what she does for the American people and the American women specifically in terms of owning yourself and not wavering it towards other people's perceptions, especially as a First Lady,” she told the Huffington Post.
They also added: ''I've seen people criticise her in terms of her showing arms or legs, but I think it's so amazing how she empowers women to have a really strong sense of self and go after what makes them happy.''
Talking about her own style, the striking beauty, who is known for her eccentric look explained that she likes to have one detail for her outfit.
''I've sorta begun to go for the minimalist approach. Obviously I wear a lot of prints and a lot of colours, but there are so many different facets to my style and this last particular season had a very minimalist vibe,” she told People.
''I can wear one colour, but there has to be a certain detail there. I like things that are extremely architectural and amazing, so I can just build an outfit around that.''
Solange was also our music crush of the week last week...
