RADIANT IN RIO

Posted Oct 10 2011 @ 07:57 PM

Rihanna was spotted enjoying the sun in Rio de Janeiro on September 19, surrounded by a group of friends as the paparazzi snapped away. Wearing Tavik Swimwear's Corazon Top with Maya Bottom in Leopard Tribal, RiRi accessorized with oversized hoop earrings (try Avenssi's Knot Hoops in Rose Gold) and a few delicately layered gold necklaces (like Tiger Lily Jewelry's Agate Slice Necklace in Gold/Sand). If you like the funky, fashionable look of Rihanna's suit, check out the Babette Top with Doll Bottom, which is also from Tavik Swimwear. True to RiRi style of late, the "We Found Love" singer also added a decorative head scarf to her seaside ensemble. Thoughts? In Rihanna romance news, it seems as though she may have a new love interest on her hands. After having been spotted looking chummy on numerous occasions with Dudley O’Shaughnessy, RiRi is staying mum (for now) on her relationship status. Who is Dudley, you ask? Well, Crushable reports that he is a model, who is "signed with Next Model Management and has shot campaigns for brands like Fred Perry and Stone Island. He’s also walked to runways at London Fashion Week. He’s also a boxer. He took up the sport at the age of nine, following in the footsteps of his father and older brother — and he’s currently ranked #1 in England in his welter weight category. Please, not hitting in the face!" Interesting! I wonder if they're just friends or something more?
