Revealing of Rihanna

It's here... the day we were all waiting for.... getting our hands on the new Rihanna collection at River Island. I am pleased to now share with you my fav pieces and the definite pieces that will be hanging in my wardrobe this season. 

The Occult Print Tshirt dress

£50

This is already sold out online. You have to be quick if you want this beaut dress. I think you'll agree... very Mary Katrantzu.

 Dark Wash Denim Boyfriend jeans.

£50

Slouchy, yet sexy paired with a tank or bralet and stiletto strappys. 

Urban feel with a hint of demure and attitude.

They have that cool Rihanna vibe going on... plus they look amazzzingly comfy.

Khaki Camo Leather shorts

£85

C'mon, we all knew Ri was never goona bring out quiet and conservative. Raunchy and wowzarooney... YES!

And these camo leather hot pants are definately have the wow factor. 

What I love about them, is that I would wear them in the day with oversized knitwear, tights and trainers...maybe a beanie too. 

Or wedges, vest and a clutch... your choice.

G4Life Barely There Sandals

£60

I am literally in love with these girls. Only Rihanna could turn a simply classic strappy into a pumped up urban killers. 

What can I say?

L.O.V.E

Faux Fur Rucksack

£40

I am a little made for ruckies at the mo, and this bad boy is no exception. With graffiti straps and a soft to touch fabric and fur like texture, It ticks all the boxes. 

So, I don't know about you, but I'm marching down to River Island to get me some of these, before I miss out. Fav Piece? It HAS to be all the pieces in the black and white occult pattern. It's such a cool, yet sophisticated pattern that really is versatile. 

Well done Riri.... you've done us proud

Sneek Peek at Rihanna's collection for River Island

Rihanna is back for a second season with her cool and urban designs for River Island. SS13 collections included wispy maxi pinafores, watercolour print garments and grunge shirts attached to denim minis. The overall feel to the collection was sexy grunge with a hint of glamour and urban charm.

How does AW13 differ from SS13? 

This season, we're seeing a lot of camo and urban street garments from the photography campaigns.  

There's a certain "toughness" to the collection. Yes it's seductive, but not one glimmer of femininity is apparent. Instead the tone screams Attitude!

Safari Style

Style diaries 4:

While I was in Kenya, I went on an adventure. It was a 5 day drive into the Massai Mara national park, on bumpy dirt tracks, no toilets and a desert like heat. Luckily for us, we took a propeller plane, which was only a cheeky 2 hour flight straight past mount Kilimanjaro! WOW!

Mount Kili from the plane. 

Anyway, the massai village lodge was my home for the next couple of days and as you can imagine... there wasn't exactly a wardrobe, well for that matter, there wasn't even electric at some points of the day! But I improvised and all was good.

Our little house in the country (without eleccy)

I went all out with my outfit choices. Just because I was on a safari in the middle of what looks like the Lion King set doesn't mean I had to look like a carcass. If there was any a time to wear animal prints, large rimmed tribys and camouflage accessories... this was it! 

Rhino Top: River Island £7

Shorts: All saints £45

Bracelets: Primark £2.50

Aviators: Primark £1.50

This was 7am and it was FREEZING hence the shirt buttoned up.

Shirt: H&M £7.99

Hareem pants: Topshop £32

Converse: £45

Frilly Socks: Topshop 3 for £8

Converse and frilly socks are my saviour! 

As I mentioned in my other blogs, I wore my hair in a loose braid or a messy bun. It worked a treat with the wind and heat and even better, it was quick and easy to do at 4am in the morning with no eleccy and only my little torch on my iphone as light. Hardcore!

Loose Hunger games style braid

!!!!Bun Mania!!!!

Keep tuned for my next blogs on my style choices during my evening stay at the Massai village and the adventures we got up to.

Well, I have just returned from spending two weeks in the beautiful continent of Africa! And honestly? I didn't want to come back to the UK. While I was there, I was partaking in a safari in the Massai Mara, dolphin watching, African dancing and going out in the evening.

 

This summer, luckily for me, safari and ethnic trends have been huge, overtaking the whole of the high street this season. So you can guess that everything from my shoes to my jewellery was bright, ethnic and an abundance of colour, patterns and prints.

Over the last fortnight, I put together a bit of a style diary, featuring my best outfit ideas, favourite garments, must have accessories and key pieces for the ultra holiday wardrobe. The next few posts will be my style diaries, so hopefully you guys can take a bit of inspiration and use my info to nail these summer trends before we lose the sun to Autumn, along with new AW13 collections. Make the most of August and the sunshine!
