Get The Look For Less: Janelle Monae Edgy Street Style

Janelle Monae spent some time in New York City this week and made a statement with her unique style.

Monae who was in the city promoting her new single, a collaboration with rising MC Jidenna, called “Yoga” and for BET’s Black Girls Rock event, came out of her downtown hotel in a white and black fur coat on top of black leggings and a t-shirt. She accessorized the outfit with an oversized hat and chunky wedge sneakers. The singer’s look was a twist on her trademark black and white suit, that was very modern and chic. At the Black Girls Rock event the singer opened the show with a rousing performance of her song “Electric Lady.”

The song is the first single from the singer since 2013’s album, Electric Lady. The 29-year-old just announced at the beginning of this year a joint venture between her record label, Wondaland Art Society and L.A. Reid ‘s Epic Records, now known as Wondaland Records, which will release a full EP called The Eephus with 5 tracks including Yoga.

To get this trendy street look, try this jacket from Nordstrom. The vest section features the same pattern as Monae’s but is faux fur instead, it’s faux leather sleeves give it it’s edgier feel.
