Rihanna "Diamonds" Music Video & Makeup Look

We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky....

Rihanna has finally released her video for her amazingly awesome song Diamonds!!!

I had patiently waited for this video for weeks, and now it's HERE! \o/

In this video, Rihanna SLAYED.

The video plays out like a mysterious story. You'll see a bit of chaos during the video, but even through the chaos, the lovely Ri-Ri is at peace :)

Diamonds music video also highlights the different elements like earth, water, wind, and fire in each different scene. Don't know why. It just does. *shrugs*

Sidenote: Did yall see that arm of the hand she was grabbing throughout the video?!? Did that arm remind you of anyone in particular *cough* Chris Brown *cough* or was it just me?

And, of course, her lovely eye makeup in the video just takes the cake!

You can see the Diamonds video below:

I loved her makeup in the scenes with the horses, so I recreated the makeup look and made it my own :)

Rihanna "You Da One" Music Video Inspired Makeup + New Year's Eve OOTD!

"You da one that I dream about all day....you da one that I think about alwaaaaays"

Hi-ya!

Here's a Rihanna inspired makeup look I did recently! I actually wore this makeup look on New Year's Eve!! 

This makeup look was inspired by one of the makeup looks Rihanna wore in her "You Da One" music video. I recreated the look she wore when she was wearing the blonde bob and the black fishnet tights.

I love this makeup look, because in my opinion it's perfect for day and night! I wore it ALL DAY. Gotta love Urban Decay primer potion..no fading of my eyeshadow occurred at all!

Rihanna Debuts New Music Video - "We Found Love"

I am not lying when I say this is probably one of the BEST music videos I've seen all year.

This is definitely the best music video by Rihanna that I've ever seen. 

It's so good, I just had to share it with you all!

It portrays how love can be a wonderful thing, yet also dangerous and tormenting.

The whole time I watched this video, I couldn't help but think of Rihanna's past relationship with Chris Brown...

Watch the video below!

what did you think?

Rihanna & Her Brother, Wearing All Black EVERYTHING!

Y'all know I love me some Rhi-Rhi...

her makeup inspires me, as well as her style!

 Yesterday, Rihanna was spotted taking her little brother shopping at The Grove in L.A.

They both looked SUPER fly! I can tell where her brother gets his style from ^_^

the heels, the studded bracelets, and the Ray-Bans definitely add the perfect touch to this outfit!

If I wear an all black fit tomorrow, don't be surprised my loves! ;)

XoXo

Rihanna "S&M" Music Video Inspired Makeup

I recently did a makeup tutorial inspired by one of the makeup looks Rihanna wore in her "S&M" Music Video. In the video, Rihanna is clearly wearing a blue shade of color on her eyes, however my inspiration initially came from pictures and screen shots of the video. I thought she was wearing teal! Oh, how wrong I was...lol. Here's a couple of pictures of how my look came out:

product list for the tutorial:

-Urban Decay Primer Potion

-Wet N' Wild Holiday Color Icon Palette in Golden Goddess

-Wet N' Wild Single in Penny

-Wet N' Wild Single in Nutty

-Wet N' Wild Color Icon Palette in Vanity

-Teal form an unknown Urban Decay palette

-L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara in Black

I plan on doing another makeup look from her "S&M" music video. I've just got to figure out which one! Did you like her video? What did you think of the makeup?
