Rihanna Promotes Bim
Last year Rihanna signed a three-year contract with the Barbados Tourism Authority to promote our island internationally. The first phase included the staging of Rihanna’s Loud tour here in Barbados and promotion of the island on her official website and facebook page. Rihanna will also be “the face of Barbados” in a new international campaign.
Rihanna was styled by Mel Ottenberg for the photoshoot, which was staged in several parishes on the island. One of the looks included a halter dress that was designed for Rihanna by frequent collaborator Adam Selman. The bright yellow dress features faux wrap detail and a high slit in the front. Mel kept the jewelry simple with just gold hoop earrings and a delicate necklace.
McQ At Baldi
Rihanna was spotted at Giorgio Baldi on August 12, 2012 wearing a leather cap and shorts with a printed t-shirt from FreshJive. Rih pulled out yet another pair of Air Jordan sneakers, this time donning the Cavs version of the Retro 4. She covered up with a green leather motorcycle jacket from McQ by Alexander McQueen. The jacket costs more than $2000 and is available at Shopbop.
Charlotte’s Web
Rihanna’s ever-growing collection of sunglasses has expanded to include another pair from one of her favourite eyewear designers. Rihanna chose the peach cat-eye sunglasses from Linda Farrow‘s collaboration with Charlotte Olympia for her interview with Oprah. The sunnies in this collab feature acetate frames infused with feathers.
