Zoe Kravitz Explains Her Trashy Steez: ‘My Style Is Influenced By My Father And The Little Rascals’

Categories: News, Not a Total Betty But a Vast Improvement, Zoe Kravitz

We all know that Zoe Kravitz cleans up beautifully when she (or somebody’s makeup/hair stylist/wardrobe stylist) puts some effort in, so it was a pleasure to see her in a recent magazine spread not only looking gorgeous and flawless but also explaining why she likes walking around looking like a dirty runaway most of the time. Pop the hood for her exact words and some beautiful pictures.

Here’s Zoe in the March issue of InStyle:

My style is influenced by my father [Lenny Kravitz] — and The Little Rascals . I watched it all the time when I was younger. It’s the reason I love wearing clothes that are all tattered and worn.

At least there’s some method to her madness.

Maybe you wanna check out or- tell your friends.

    She is a beautiful combination of both her mother and her father. I can see both of them in her.

  • 2Sweet

    Ever since I saw an article where she made it a point to damn near go out her way to say she WASN’T BLACK I haven’t been checking for her. And I know what y’all are going to say but let’s be real, both her parents as well as she, look like some typical light skins.

  • Kimmie – Southern Belle

    Whatever the reason the look always works for her. She always looks wonderful and unique. Real leader in confidently expressing her own since of fashion.

  • whiteberry

    wow..pretty

  • foxxy cleopatra foster

    @charlyndria
    U ain’t lying. All of my friends who are apart of the blipster set are obsessed with her. They go to parties that they know she’ll be at.

  • Lisa

    She is truly her momma and daddy’s child. She is definitely a combo of both of them. Lisa Bonet was a “hippie” and Lenny always had the “punk” thing going. I LOVED them together as a couple.

  • real black is chocolate

    just wack azz jew girl!

  • Lyrics

    great mix of her 2 parents…….i see both of them when i look @ her!

  • I’m so Appalled v2.0

    Zoe kravitz is beautiful but is a another biracial that will lose touch of her black roots. She is dating a white man, that will wipe her black genes away completely.

    black people stop bringing these biracial children into this world. Nowadays biracial people do not want to be labeled as “black”. They want to separate themselves from black people.

  • LA’S FINEST

    She’s pretty when she does’nt try to hard

  • http://aol ebonieladi

    Why would anyone want to look like a Little Rascal? Something is seriously wrong with this girl.

  • TheOriginalBlkBarbie (Bleeding Red&White Tonight!!!)

    She’s pretty, but I think her Momma has her beat (or did when she was her age). Also, Lisa Bonet’s other little girl Lola looks just like a little doll! That little girl will be a stunner when she is older. Lisa makes some cute kids (Lenny too).

  • Jewel

    She’s a beautiful girl with or without the makeup. Not everyone has to have the mainstream look. I love her unique sense of style.

    @2sweet
    I would like to see that article, do you know where I can find it?

  • ll

    Why are people saying she’s biracial? Her parents are black. I’m sure that most of you who are making these comments have some white in your back ground. It’s extremely rare to find an African American who doesn’t.

    I always get mistaken for being biracial. When in reality both my parents are black and darker than me. However, I don’t have one white great-grand parent. Who doesn’t? Just because you may look a certain way doesn’t make you blacker than anyone else. Have your DNA mapped and then make your comments.

  • I’m so Appalled v2.0

    @ll

    She is biracial you idiot. Both her are parents are biracial, thus she is also biracial. wake up.

  • Kimmie – Southern Belle

    oops. sense not since. :-)

  • real black is chocolate

    AMEN!!

    white is 70 % in america us only 13 % plus mixed/light-skinned anti black and not want to be dark-skinned, black ppl wake up it’s 100 % genocide!

    black ppl wake up mathaf’cka

    I can see how she does it…it’s easy when you can afford all the best designer goodies to clean up and spruce up your body and wardrobe. I would be like to have some of those toys too…

  • smh

    my parents are mixed & so am I & I am proudly black….u would be surprised as to how many multi-racial people actually do embrace their black side…..

  • nywoman23…killuminati

    so i dont consider myself black. thats dumb you guys are brainwashed. also race doesnt exist in my book. black is a color in a crayon box. that so so dumb to refer to some1 as black , or white. chinese dont go around calling themselves yellow. pls im bajan. i descend of west indian roots etc. you humans beings need to wake up its not that serious. this shouldnt even be an issue.

  • chooch6899

    Uber Black folks are always trying to seperate light skins from the Blood. That is a shame. They only accpet mix folks when it can help forward their racist agenda. Such stupidity.

  • ll

    @ I’m so Appalled v2.0

    Do you have proof that you are 100% black? You idiot. I bet if you were as light as her you would not complain about it. The only reason why you are so worried about this girl being biracial is because you want to be light yourself. All I’m saying is this we are all “mixed” somewhere down the line. So who cares? The post is about her style not her grand-parents. You idiot.

  • who gives a fu*ck

    who gives a fu*ck

    if you need to draw attention to it

    then you are not comfortable in your own skin

  • Mock Rock Star

    I’m sure Zoe looks better than 80% of the women who have criticized her on this blog on her worst day…hmmmmm make that 100%

  • Rrrrroe Ski Love- A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

    @real black is chocolate> It’s painfully obvious that you don’t work in the corporate world. On another note, Do you think that claiming your blackness helps to elevate our race? Being black is one thing, being successfull is another. We can only elevate ourselves in society by being success stories.

    ______________________________________________

    100% co-sign; this ain’t nothing but the truth. No “African-American” is so called “pure” or 100%. I live in a country now where 99% of the population is “one race” and they are just as dizzy and confused as black folks in America, thinking they’re all “pure” as well. People bring that ish up when they feel bad about themselves/jealous/at some “disadvantage”. I never realized how many racist black folks there are until I started reading “black sites”, which I ironically started reading in order to feel closer to my “native” AA “culture”. It’s not a good look. :(

  • FGM
