Suited Up - Stripes tend to get a bad rap — after all, no one wants to look like Beetlejuice — but with some smart styling tips, they can look quite chic. See how Solange, Kelly Rowland and more make the trend look easy. Solange is always at the forefront of fashion and she's never afraid of going bold. She went for a striped, menswear-inspired Low Classic for Opening Ceremony suit, plus matching sunglasses. (Photo: PacificCoastNews.com)

Kelly Rowland - The former Destiny's Child member was not destined for a child...at least not back in 2006. Rowland has been on bump watch a record three times. Blogs picked up on a quote from Rowland, allegedly given to a website, in which she gushes about her pregnancy. "Not true," said a rep for her label, adding that "the interview never took place." Fast forward eight years later and the singer is not only a new mom, but a new wife as well. (Photo: Stephen Lovekin/Getty Images for BET's Rip The Runway)
