I’ve already credited Rihanna with kicking off the trend for voluminous dresses with the pink Giambattista Valli gown she wore to the 2015 Grammys. A full three years later, as celebrities vie to wear not just the best, but the biggest dress on the red carpet, it’s official: Rihanna’s 2015 choice was a true “Never…

Rihanna Gives Me Non-Buyer’s Remorse
I don’t suffer buyer’s remorse too often, but I do sometimes get non-buyer’s remorse. Last year, it was these Pucci boots. This year, it’s the poufy, tulle Oscar de la Renta gown I tried on at the Los Angeles store Decades in February. That one has always nagged at me, and I was reminded of…
Musical Interlude: Andra Day and Rihanna
I’d heard of singer Andra Day before, but I didn’t truly HEAR her until she performed with Ellie Goulding at the Grammy Awards last month. While she was still on the Grammy stage, I was checking for tour dates and I had my tickets for her March 25 show at Webster Hall by the time…
More Stevie Nicks, Plus Kanye, Rihanna and Paul McCartney
In yesterday’s post about this week’s Fleetwood Mac concert at Madison Square Garden, I mentioned that gorgeous Instagrammer Carrie Courogen was soooo front-row that she played Lindsey Buckingham’s guitar. Twice. Because I already posted the guitar picture, here’s a nice shot Carrie got of Stevie Nicks. The perfect halo of gold hair and lightning. A…

Rihanna Owns the CFDA Awards … and Instagram!
I suspect that Rihanna has won my prestigious Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo award for the year. Who can possibly top the sheer Adam Selman dress she wore to pick up her Fashion Icon Award at the Council of Fashion Designers of America awards tonight? When it comes to red carpets, some people opt…
Celebrity News: Rihanna’s Green Lipstick, Clooney’s Bio
Thanks to gorgeous blogger Vyque of Fasshonaburu for directing my attention to Rihanna’s dark green lipstick at the iHeartRadio Music Awards on Thursday. Vyque knows about my recent passion for crazy-colored lipstick. I loved Rihanna’s look from head to toe. I haven’t read anything yet about what brand the lipstick was, but if you want…
Rihanna, River Island and Topshop
Rihanna announced her second collection for high-street retailer River Island yesterday. It features lots of camouflage in both traditional green/khaki and black/gray/white. (I hope Valerie Steele, the director and chief curator of The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology, sees this. Steele and I were recently talking about the lifespan of the camo-print trend.)…
WWD Updates the Rihanna v. Topshop Story
Today’s WWD has an update on last week’s reports that Rihanna is suing a Topshop supplier for using her image on a t-shirt without permission. Topshop and Rihanna’s lawyers declined to comment, as did River Island, the Topshop competitor with whom Rihanna is officially collaborating. The article does say that even though the U.K. has…
