The “I Decided” singer recently invited ELLE magazine inside her Brooklyn brownstone to show off her one-of-a-kind digs and share the inspiration behind the stylish apartment.
“I had a moment when I looked at my closet and I was like, ‘Whoa, I really don’t have any basics,’” Knowles explained. “And with my house, I wanted to find a balance of having great colors and patterns but also a really livable, warm, serene space.”
Solange admits it took the persistent nagging of big sister Beyonce to move the free-spirited fashionista from her Los Angeles home to her current residence.
“Even though it was her superstar sister who’d been prodding her for six years to move to Brooklyn, setting up here allows her to stay close to family—Beyoncé and baby Blue stop by for family dinners, and Solange uses Bey and Jay’s TriBeCa home to get ready for events—while establishing a life that is refreshingly distinct from her older sister’s spotlight.”
