Rihanna in Balmain

I hope you ladies have had a fabulous weekend. I must say that this weekend in the NYC was really a true treat. Not only did mother nature grace us with her warm hand, but it made room for lots of interesting celebrity sightings in the city. The warm spring-time weather also gave way to a flurry of denim jackets adorn on the backs of women up and down the Manhattan strip. However, our favorite Trend Doll Rihanna set things off when she was spotted this past weekend sporting the Balmain Military Style Denim Jacket. As you recall, we discussed the whole Balmain hoopla last week. And at a slightly lower price margin than the Balmain crystal-embellished canvas jacket – we can all give two thumbs up to Rihanna for pulling off the $5,075 jacket with the purest of ease. And while the majority of the world would like to splurge on Balmain baubles, we can open our wallets to more affordable options out on the market. Thankfully, upon scanning the web – I was able to track down a few light blue hued jackets to take mental note of. Check the stats after the jump!

I don’t know but Janis you read my mind! I am totally SICK of that hair style. I know that she has been rocking a weave on top of her short look. I wish that she would totally get rid of this wet and wavy look. Its about that time to scroll back into the hair do’s & hair don’ts.
