Rihanna covers the July 2010 issue of Elle, looking absolutely beautiful. The sultry dark spread exudes nothing but her; sexy…edgy..and of course stylish. Animal prints and lingerie, sounds like her everyday wardrobe to me! She opens up about her new love, what fashion means to her and also life after Chris Brown…
When asked about her new beau:
“I have a boyfriend. I’m so happy. I feel really comfortable, and it’s so easy. I have such a chaotic life, but at the end of the day, that is just my peace. It keeps me sane, really, talking to him and talking to my family.”
When asked about her favorite designers:
“It’s clear there are definitely fewer black women in the high-fashion industry. One of the things I respected most about Gucci was that they did a print campaign with me. I’m a black girl on a fashion spread for Gucci—that was a big deal. I respect designers who aren’t afraid to go outside the box. I went to a Jean Paul Gaultier show, and I saw girls who are thicker than me, beautiful and voluptuous and different ethnicities. That made me so excited. I thought, Okay, I can work that, for sure.”
Getting over Chris Brown:
“A year ago, I was very confused. Because he was my best friend. All of a sudden, one night changed our whole lives—not only our friendship, but our lives. I wanted to wake up one day and just not have that pain anymore. I wanted to be with him again or get over him—it was either-or. I just didn’t want to feel the pain, the confusion.”
Beautiful girl she is.
I love this! Ahhhhhhhh! Good Stuff on here Mia!
