Rihanna: Fashion Icon or Fashion Misfit?

I really didn't mean to be rude by the title of this post but I really don't know if she is indeed fashionable or not.. so I need your help please.

Right. Well there is no point denying the fact that Rihanna has been seen wearing some outfits that are truely amazing (and were all secretly jealous) but there other times actually it is actually becoming more often now that she has been seen wearing clothes that just makes us.. scratch our heads and say "huh?" or even worse im my opinion looking at it for such a long time (because your trying to figure what on earth she's trying to do) that you start thinking "well I soppuse its nice.." In my opinion that is NOT good! When we see something we like where immediatly enthralled by it marvelling the fact that someone could look so good, but Rihanna's case is certainly different..

Okay so I'll make a list of outfits (by pictures of course) she's worn and yay or nay it, please comment if you agree or disagree!

Nay. The outfit could have been passable if she didnt wear those ridiculous boots.. they are boots right? I mean you could easily mistake them for patent legwarmers lol

Yay!! This is amazing! Everything is literally bang on trend! The Louboutins, the structured shoulder (seethrough and lace) top, pencil skirt and minimal jewellery (lol well apart from the earings and bracelet!) This is exactly what I mean by looking soo good! Bravo Rihanna!

Nay. Dont even know where to start..!

Hmm.. this is hard. I like bits of it I suppose.. I'll Yay it because its sorta okay..( I cannot stand her hairstyle though. Horrible!)

Yay. But only because I can see what she is trying to do with the outifit. I really like her jacket and my mum just looked and said her scarf is lovely, so overall nice!

NAY! This is beyond disgusting, the bowl-like hair, the dress looks trashy and makes her look fat. I suppose the only nice thing is the shoes.

Yay. Absolutely lovely. I love playsuits and this one is just perfect, especially the structured shoulders. The statment necklace is great and its cool that this is the only piece of jewellery she is wearing. Also I love the nails!

Nay. I dont like this, it looks like she is trying too hard.

Okay last one now. Nay. She simply looks wierd.

Playsuits are back!

Chloe double-breasted jumpsuit
£1,116

Here we are again with the lastest S/S 09 trend the playsuit. Or the jumpsuit; whichever one you prefer, i.e. TopShop calls them Jumpsuit. Playsuits are nearly as contreversial as the Harem pants. However I love them both. (I have two harem pants, and im planning on buying many more!) I especially love this Chloe playsuit.. Its beautiful, i love the double breast design and billowing effect on the legs, perfect for me who unfortunatly has fat thighs (sigh). If I get this then Ill wear it with Christian Louboutins courts and a nice oversized clutch. I've seen box clutches here and there but im not to keen on them.. reminds me of lunchboxes during primary school!
Playsuits aren't just loved by me mind you, I am constantly seeing celebrities wearing playsuits, especially Lady GaGa (who i adore)..

Ive tried finding out what this playsuit is by, but i cant find anything. Lady GaGa is wearing this elegant white playsuit with nude (my other sixth former will be making a post on nudes!) shoes and a big oversized bag. I love this look, but im not so sure about the oversized bag.. the playsuit is so elegant and stylish but the bag is more casual and laid-back. I love this playsuit, speaking of playsuits I have a white party to attend in a month, and i would love to wear this! I would be the belle of the ball! Okay back to GaGa..


Lady GaGa in a sexy playsuit.. I think she is wearing peep-toe Christian Louboutins, Ray-bans, her signature leather cut-offs gloves.. literally working the OTT look, but the genius of it all is that it looks great!

There is a particular picture I'm looking for of GaGa, she wore it in London recently to Bungalow 8. It's a black see-through jumpsuit.. I'm still looking and when I find it, I'll post it straightaway.

I've found it!

I am very pleased with myself for finding this picture, came across it on ASOS. So, here we have GaGa in another playsuit; see-through. Amazing, i think she is wearing big black knickers, but no bra, sexy and still moderate! She is wearing neon heels, and her trademark bow, im trying to find a bow like that, if anyone knows please say!
