The fierceness that is Rihanna has been tearin’ up the streets of NYC this week. Every time I look, the fashionista is out and about attending an event or private party. I’m not complaining though, because the chick is fly!
Anyway, here she is on stage at 106 & Park on Wednesday promoting the re-release of ‘Good Girl Gone Bad’. BTW, she is rocking the ’08 Balenciaga Gladiator Boots. Tianna linked them in her gladiator post earlier this year. Peep more candids of the singer/model when you keep reading…
RIHANNA LEAVING MADISON SQ. GARDEN
Rihanna attended Alicia Keys’ ‘As I Am’ concert at Madison Square Garden as well, to support her homie Ne-Yo, who also performed. Her best friend Melisa is in the background rocking a new look.

These boots were already sported 6-8 mos. ago by Jennifer Connelly (flat version) and one of the Olsen Twins. Angel and Rihanna are late.
Beyonce and Rihanna have two different styles. Beyonce looks stunning in hers and Riri rocks hers. One’s classic and one’s funky – no comparisons.
LOVIN the zebra boots, and the throwback Halle Berry Boomerang HAircut…
I love the boot and the other shoes are hot to. You can’t deny the girl has style.
She was on 106 when Umbrella first came out and everyone asks how tall she is kuz shes tall and terrance asked her and she said she was 5’9″.5 my height
. But she is definitely rocking Halle Berry’s early 90′s haircut I love i think it went better with Halle’s petite face and features. But Rihanna is fly stylllll. I love her style im talkin notes!
lol @ # 49… i feel u there!
not really feelin those boots tho..
So now all you have to do to be famous is…get a stylist, and switch up your haircut. Wow! So many people on here are so gullable. The shoes she has on is banging in the first pic, but is that going to make me start checking for her more and going crazy like I’ve never seen someone dress nice before? The music business now is way to easy. There’s nothin wrong with being beautiful, and dressing nicely, but when people big u up in the music business and you have absolutely no talent. it’s patehtic. Her marketers and stylists knew just what she was doing. The same people complaining about the lack of “good quality music” are the ones on here, feeding right into the product.
i think she’s like 6 fott even or six one
Hotdamn she was looking good in all them pics. When she was at 106 though….them some bad shoes but not w/ that ‘fit but damn they fly.
I read she was like 5’9” or 5’10”….. w/o super high heels on she looks about that tall…..my sister is 5’9” barefoot.
Her shoes were a lil shocling at first, but after lookin at them for a minute, i WANT THEM! lol. dont know where i would wear them at though.. lol
damn ths girl is still killin everbody on tha fashion tip go RiRI cuz u do it so damn well a BAD chick indeed!
#181 wrong. Jennifer is the model in the ad, but she wore the short version of the sandal on the red carpet and Rihanna is the first to wear these shoes. Ashley Olsen wore the other Balenciaga boot Tianna posted about…the one Tracee Ellis Ross was wearing in brown.
Those black and white boots are ugly. It looks like an optical illusion. But everything else looks good.
Oh yeah, why does she keep wearing black? I know black looks good on everyone but it’s the summer, and she needs to stop with all the black unless she wants to be known as the gothic pop star.
#194 RAKE – You’re wrong. I said Jennifer’s was slightly different, but it was this same pattern and boot as was Ashley’s (just solid). Others have even rocked them since Jennifer and Ashley. Rihanna’s not the first to rock these boots. So like I said, THIS IS NOTHING NEW.
#197 I am so tired of the subject…I thought you people were seriously wondering if she were not the first to wear the shoe…but I’m increasingly coming to think that you just want to make everybody else think she wasn’t the first to wear it. It is NOT true. I have explained this in the other topic and at this point it’s shoegate ad nauseam. Anyway, for the last time – Jennifer Connely is the Balenciaga model who wore the EXACT shoe IN THE AD, but a shortened version (ankle length) of the shoe ON THE RED CARPET. And, the shoe that many have mistaken for this particular Balenciaga gladiator is Ashley Olsen’s knee length sandal by Azzedine Alaia. The other Balenciaga sandal Ashley wore after other people had worn it was the Balenciaga tie dye gladiator…that isn’t even remotely similiar to the one Rihanna is wearing. Now, the Balenciaga shoe Ashley DID wear first is the black open toe boot that was featured in the Balenciage spread Concrete Loop did (Tracee Ellis Ross was wearing it in brown). Okay? And this is the last time I’m going over this…Go google and prove yourselves wrong if you won’t take what I’m telling you… I don’t care to go back and forth with bullheaded people anymore… If Rihanna is the first to wear the shoe, she’s just the first…can’t get why you’d want to change it.
#RAKE 198 – You’re ridiculous and still wrong. You can state whatever FACTS, but you’re still agreeing with what I said about Jennifer Connelly. Why’d you waste your time posting to let me know I’m right – lmao. Any who, you’re the nauseating one that you insist on trying to tell people what’s already known and neglect what you don’t know. RIHANNA WASN’T THE FIRST TO WEAR THIS BOOT. Other models (regardless of the Olsen’s) have worn this boot in the same pattern as well as different lengths and variations. Why do you want to change that? It is what it is, but it’s also NOTHING NEW.
What’s the big deal? Rihanna wasn’t the first to wear these so really cares!!!
#199 I agreed with you? lol SMH Wow.
RAKE – Again, I got a good laugh off you. You really go on a limb to defend, but can’t deny (or won’t admit) that you agree and/or wrong (in a lot of posts I see your name on). It’s okay babe, but thanks for the laugh.
TOUCHE!
Oh, and your agreement was about Jennifer (I made it clear since you don’t dabble in clarity) – lol. You’re a riot!
lol smh
since you touched on the issue of concessions… here: http://www.redcarpet-fash...anna+Balenciaga+Gladiator
a gift
These boots are hot and they will be mine tomorrow morning! $4G’s? Who cares. Lord knows I don’t mean to brag, but I can definitely afford them. CHHHHHHARGE!!!
RAKE #205 & 206 – And what was the point of your link? LMAO. You’ve completely lost it. Your link proved nothing like your posts – The Gift – is me crushing all you’ve tried to say. Again, thanks for proving me right about Jennifer. No need to thank me – just take it as a lessoned learned that’s NOTHING NEW. You were easy.
I’m both a huge Beyonce and Rihanna fan and I believe that both of them are very talented and yes Rihanna boots were hot but never did she and never will she surpass Beyonce. I mean really think about the sh*t that some of you say, Beyonce has taken time to enjoy her newlywed life, so duh, of course you see Rihanna and others more often than usual on magazines, etc. that doesn’t make her better than Beyonce. As far as talent, money, and looks Beyonce is a way better choice . If you think about it Rihanna is a young lady and Beyonce is a grown a$$ woman, there’s no comparison. By the way, even though I support Rihanna by buying and listening to her music, I strongly believe that most of her videos are remakes of Beyonces’. Don’t lie to yourselves, you know it. Honestly, tell me that Rihanna video with Sean Paul don’t look too much like Baby Boy. That’s right, get it right and that’s not the only one. But anyway, I’m not here to bash on Rihanna she’s cool, I like her I just don’t like people who talk about sh*t that they have no clue about. Never again should anyone compare the little girl to Beyonce. It’s just not right, and please don’t call yourself responding to my comment because I’m not a hater I love them both I just felt like commenting on some bullsh*t I read and I had to fix it just remember you can’t compare people that’s not even in the same category with one another. Continue to voice your opinions but don’t lie to yourselves like that. Until next time people Enjoy life. Experience Love, and Explore the world. I love you guys and yes you too haters… xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
I agree with you 208 – Rihanna’s still copying Beyonce. Good Girl Gone Bad is nothing but a take off B’Day. Beyonce came out tough and angry and then Rihanna wanted to be Bad. She copies EVERY move of Beyonce’s when it comes to music and business moves. She’s getting hers, but will never surpass Beyonce because no matter what – Rihanna doesn’t have a voice nor can she dance and will never be an ENTERTAINER.
