How does she always look so darn cute? Somebody tell me! The girl can even make pearls look fresh!

It’s such a great look. It feels trendy and original at the same time. My only concern is a gust of wind.

I think the button down shirt and pearls would look hot with a pencil skirt, too, but probably not as comfy.

Are you loving Ri’s look or do you like her friend’s outfit better. The beret, shirt combo is also a winner.

Kadi.
P.S. Her legs make me wanna exercise for 3 days straight. Get it, girl.

I’ve been trying not to post Rihanna lately, but I think the hotness of this number deserves some props.

She looks ridiculously cool, and it’s a good cold weather alternative.

Seriously. When do you see celebs properly dressed during the winter on the red carpet? Celebs don’t get cold. They walk from hotel to car, car to restaurant, restaurant to car, car to party, party to car, car to hotel … just isn’t long enough to register the weather.

As for the necklace, it’s so crazy dangerous, it’s fabulous. Without it, this look might have fallen into the ‘meh’ category.

A very chill fit + attention-getting accessory = perfection.

Loving her yellow nail polish, too!

Get all over the neon colored polish. Yes, even if you’re not a teen or celebrating Halloween. It’s super cute and an easy way to break up the monotony. I bought three colors (electric blue, hot pink and purple) from Urban. Mad compliments.

As usual, my Ri Ri looks hot.

Question. What’s your style verdict on neon nails/designs?

Would you rock it? My girl says it’s childish. She’s 26. Agree?

Kadi.

Beyonce always has the hottest ish.

The diva debuts the ladies version of Kanye West’s shutter shades.  So dope.

And I do love the new hair. Less drag queen, and more ponytails and half up half down ‘dos, but the fit ……. C’mon. Ri has the bad girl steez on lock. I love you, Bey, but the leather jacket + tight jeans + killer high heels …

Look!

Not like Rihanna owns the Bad Girl look, but you can’t avoid the comparison.

Am I right?

Most importantly, we (us, ladies) are all tight jeans and tees and killer heels type of people, and we can all look effortlessly hot in the “Rihanna” combination. Just grab your leather jacket to seal the deal. How many jeans, t-shirts, leather jackets and high heels can one girl own?

I lost count. Rock on.

Kadi.

I totally lover her look, especially her hair. The edginess contrasts with the uber-femme, one-shoulder, red-hot Gucci dress, fastened with a sparkling, adorable heart and Gucci jewelry.

Every picture I see of her, I wish her life wardrobe was mine.

The outfit is really, really super cute.

This winter it’s all about the dress. Dresses and stockings, ladies. Dresses and stockings and statement jewelry.

Kadi.

Somebody hold me. Rihanna, who I always have really admired and respected in her fashion choices, wore thong, flip flop boots.

I file this under the ’scroll down’ category.

You know, everything looks pretty perfect until you scroll down. And BAM! Ugly.

I’m not a fan of Ugg boots. I’m not a fan of thong flip flops. Combining both is horrific. Are they thongs or are they boots? Thoots? Bongs?

Also spotted … A big, black tatt on her hand. What is that?

Kadi.

Yes, she looks great and it works for her.

She must have three full-time stylists working for her to find this stuff, and I really need to know the location of these secret bad girl steez getup stores so I can get in on that action.

It does seem a little slutty, don’t it. In a hot, hot way, but still … She always looks so fly, except for that leather cup thing, we could do without.

Before y’all hate, hear this …

The reason we can all love Ri despite the fact that she’s not the best singer, makes us want to cut our long hair, is maybe cheating on my crush Chris Brown, and owns more gorgeous clothes than all of us put together … is because in addition to being beautiful in a non-cookie cutter sort of way, this woman owns confidence.  Just walking down the sidewalk she teaches a lesson or two in confidence.

She does.

What do you think?

Kadi.

How seriously does she take this Good Girl Gone Bad thing?

Ri, you’re a nice looking girl with a rock star life. Look like you’re having some fun.

As for her fit, I like bits and pieces. The shoes do wonders for her rock solid legs and the necklace is ridiculously cool. I absolutely love all the giant accessories and jewelry for fall. Not a big fan of the Bluetooth-like earring tho.

Being fashion forward this fall does mean looking back to the styles of the ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s … So, Rihanna is right on trend.

Looks like the ‘80s threw up on her, and I like it.

What’s your style verdict? Hit or miss?

I’ll take the heels. That is all.

Kadi.

Forget the sweet heels and baby-doll dresses of seasons past. This fall we’re moving away from girly styles and embracing our shapely silhouettes. So let’s work our curves, get noticed and make the cutie by the bar do a double take.

Tall, Over the Knee Boots. They’re very sexy and badgirl-esque, and also the perfect segue into a new season while you’re still wearing little summer dresses.

Personally, not a fan of Ri’s boots, but overall look is hot.

Sculpted Little Black or White Dress. Celebrate your womanly figure and elongate your frame in this season’s new body-conscious little black (or white) dresses.

Try a fitted shift dress or opt for a mini, but keep the monochrome look going with tights and platforms.

Pencil Skirt. If you’ve ever secretly thought there was something stylish (and even a little sexy) about a librarian’s wardrobe, then you’re feeling me. Pencil skirts flatter the hips and boo-tay. Pair with another “look at me” item – the bustier top – and whoa!

This fall I’m turning heads, ladies.

Are you?

Kadi.

It is not cold enough for a winter coat, scarf, and tights yet … but she looks amazing. Maybe she’s in London.

This is why fly outerwear is so important. It camouflages the mess you have underneath. Not that Rihanna ever wears mess, but you get the point.

She is UBER-fierce, and could totally crush a grill with that diamond encrusted finger piece and a right swing.

I know that my love for her is wrong, but I can’t help myself.

Fall is here, ladies. Invest in a bad coat, bad scarf and bad boots.

Kadi.

Rihanna is generally in my school of can-do-no wrong because I love her complete willingness to wear whatever the heck she wants to.

She may be only 20, but when you’ve sold close to ten million albums no one tells you what to do any more.

Rihanna reminds me of the flyest girl in the popular girl clique in high school, who has a crap load of cool clothes in her closet and a ton of “What Should I Wear” options – enough  to dish out a few fashionable pieces to help upgrade her less than fashionable friends. Seriously, Rihanna has the ability to put on a new outfit forever! I’m jealous.

Vocally, she knows she is no Beyonce or Alicia Keys, but she makes up for it in the fashion department.

Wouldn’t you agree?

Kadi.
