How To Recreate Rihanna's Retro Look

Rihanna has never met a style risk she wasn't willing to take. That's why RiRi has the fashion industry taking notice. The singer recently collaborated with global clothing brand Top Shop, which is known for it's vintage inspired clothes. Whether you want to re-create this exact look or your own version of it, here's what you will need.

1) Ankle Socks and Pumps: Most of us have a pair of heels in our closets, the hard part is finding a pair of socks that will fit comfortably into your pumps. If you can't find the right pair of ankle socks in your sock draw, Charlotte Russe has a great two for one deal ($7.50, charlotterusse.com). You get to choose two pairs in a variety of colors.

2) A Vintage Inspired Dress: If you want to get RiRi's vintage look try this 50's inspired floral dress by Stop Starring ($142.00, stopstarring.com). It will give you sexy feminine curves while maintaining the demure feel of the era.

3) Cropped Top and High-Waisted pants: There are tons of different styles when it comes to the crop top. Find one that works best for you by asking yourself a few questions: How much tummy do I want to show? Do I want to go for a sophisticated take on this look or a more casual one? Since comfort should always come first, we recommend this crop top by ASOS ($51.72, asos.com).

For a tighter fit try this one by Top Shop ($24.00, topshop.com).

Pair your cropped top with high-waisted pants like these ($68.96,asos.com).

If a vintage inspired look just isn't your style and you crave the real thing, try shopping for vintage duds on lavintage.com or nastygal.com. Just remember, when shopping vintage you will likely need to make alterations. If you are in a position to negotiate the price, be sure to factor in the extra cost.
