Even Leggings Require Diamonds, According To A Newly Blonde ...

Rihanna, known for her monster hits and entrepreneurial streak, is also, of course, a style icon. Beyond her larger-than-life red-carpet appearances, like that unforgettable Guo Pei couture ensemble at the 2015 Met Gala (and the laugh-out-loud memes that came with it), she excels at effortlessly combining high and low in her off-duty looks. A prime example? Stepping out in LA in a winning combination of athleisure wear and diamonds.

For a date night at the popular celebrity haunt, Giorgio Baldi, the “Diamonds” singer – who just unveiled new blonde hair – chose a pared-back outfit embellished with sparkling accessories. She wore a black turtleneck, black velvet leggings and a sleek black leather overcoat. To add a touch of elegance to her understated ensemble, Rihanna accessorised with diamond earrings, bracelets and rings, and topped it all off with a pair of black satin Amina Muaddi heels adorned with crystal details on the ankles.

While the pop sensation and now mother-of-two has form for wearing fresh-off-the-runway looks, her off-duty fashion is equally impressive (particularly her growing archive of ultra-rare vintage gems). In Rihanna’s world, loungewear is nothing without dazzling accessories, even better if said dazzle comes courtesy of real diamonds.
