As well as being hailed one of the 21st century’s biggest music stars, Rihanna has also taken the fashion world by storm. Her daring and innovative outfits over the years have inspired millions around the world to copy her looks, making her an undisputed style icon.
But properly replicating a celebrity’s style is often easier said than done, especially when on a budget. Whilst no one can deny Rihanna is simply one of a kind, capturing her fashion style isn’t as complicated as you might think. By identifying a few key pieces she’s gained attention from, you can easily create your own Rihanna-inspired looks without spending a fortune.
So, if you want to re-vamp your wardrobe and capture the style of the gorgeous Rihanna, here are some top tips to get started with!
Faux fur
If there’s one thing Rihanna is known for, it’s rocking faux fur jackets, coats, and oversized scarves. Wearing faux fur instantly styles-up any outfit, and will make you both look and feel like an icon.
If you’re a little intimidated by wearing a piece as bold as a faux fur coat, try experimenting with smaller items like scarves. Faux fur is available in virtually every color so, if you really want to capture Rihanna’s style, opting for pastel colors like pale pinks and blues is a great option.
Tall boots
Almost everyone has at least one pair of boots in their shoe collection. But, as Rihanna is known for being daring with her outfits, tall, knee-high boots are sure to capture her style better than any other boot type.
Sexy and cool, tall boots are available in a huge array of heel types so, if you want to opt for something a little more comfortable, flat knee-highs will be easier on your feet without sacrificing any of the style factor. And, if you want to take things to the next level and really make a statement, using boot toppers is a great way to make your boots unique and original – just like Rihanna!
Silky slip dresses
Effortlessly dressy yet still super comfortable, silk slip dresses are something we’ve seen Rihanna in countless times. But, as these dresses can be revealing and a little tricky to get right, they’re certainly not for the faint hearted!
Pairing a pastel-colored slip with some strappy heels and a faux fur coat is guaranteed to be a winner in terms of capturing Rihanna’s style but, if you want something a little more understated, opting for a dark-colored slip with boots and a leather jacket will still work wonders on virtually any body type.
When we think of style icons, Rihanna is often top of most lists. But just because she’s super rich, famous, and probably has a closet the size of a small house, this doesn’t mean you can’t replicate her look and capture her style. Invest in a few of the above key pieces, wear them with sass and confidence, and you’ll be well on your way to looking and feeling great!
