Rihanna has blazed her way back into the spotlight with both her smash hit single ‘Work’ ft Drake and her album ‘Anti’ hitting the top charts around the world. Hailing from Barbados, Rihanna is effortlessly cool and with a whopping 35.8 million Instagram followers she has earned her icon status!
Known for her outstanding style, she’s no wallflower when it comes to fashion and her eyewear is often a focal point of her looks, so here’s a selection of some of her best examples to date.
1. Oversized Boho
Rihanna’s laid back sunny selfie is enough to make you long for hot summer days by the beach, cocktail in hand and fab sunglasses to boot! These oversized round gold frames with a brown tint look fantastic with plenty of gold jewellery and a glossy lip, they suit her style perfectly and are ideal for summer holidays.
We’re not too sure where these glasses are from, but we’ve found a very close match with the Escada SES859
