The Machine should help Florence with her Outfit

I saw Florence + the Machine in Santa Barbara this summer to kick off their tour.  Girl can sing...but she cannot dress,   YEESH!!! 

Florence Welch and I have never really had much in common fashion wise, this was apparent when I saw her on tour.  But this...this is a whole other level of bad. At the Venice Film Festival she wore multiple Miu Miu patterns, high water pants and high heeled ankle boots.  Her accessories aren't much better than her outfit.  She looks like that kid who went on a growth spurt right before the first day of school...and then apparently went blind right before picking out her clothing.

Hmmm, how to save this outfit?

Both patterns are pretty bold, too much to mix.  Generally if you are going to mix patterns, one should be a bit more subdued, like a pinstripe.  Then you can do a crazy floral pattern like she tried since the more minimalist pattern becomes the solid.  I guess picking a basic colored top or bottom wasn't in her plans and throwing on the black belt and shoes comes off somewhat harsh since most of the tones in the outfit are brown.  What happened to her trademark crazy dresses?  Pretty sure that would of been better than this debacle. 

While flipping through my Ipod, I see she has a song titled 'Strangeness & Charm' which seemed to fit while writing this post.  However while strange, this look is certainly not charming.  BURN the entire thing, nothing to save. And doesn't she even look uncomfortable and maybe a little angry?  So I am guessing someone told her to wear this, so FIRE them as well.  And finally, stick with music, not fashion...
