Only Rihanna Could Make an Office-Appropriate Outfit Work for the Club
Rihanna is making us rethink our going-out outfit formula thanks to her latest look. The songstress wore a sweater-vest to the club and absolutely nailed it. Are we surprised? Not really. RiRi is known for keeping us on our toes when it comes to fashion, and her office-ready ensemble is just another reason.
Not only did she wear a prep-inspired top to hit up NYC’s Up & Down, but the songstress and fashion designer also styled her sweater with yet another pair of classic wide-leg trousers. Her cable-knit pullover is quintessentially sensible and fall-ready while the pinstriped silk pants lent her outfit a gorgeous contrast of textures. Of course, no Rihanna ensemble would be complete without a little drama, which came courtesy of a chunky chain-link choker. Forget that she’s wearing all white post–Labor Day; her refreshing take on going-out wear is a statement in itself.
Check out Rihanna’s latest look below and keep scrolling to shop fall-worthy vests inspired by hers.
