Rihanna seems to take her Swag Princess title very serious. The Bajan beauty recently revealed the secret to holding on to her title–by constantly surprising the public with her “very edgy, very daring” style. She tells GraziaDaily,

“In the past few months I’ve done a lot of research in the fashion world because I wanted to work with a bunch of designers that are kinda underground, people who aren’t the obvious. I found this guy Alexander Voltaire – his stuff is just so amazing, the colors are really beautiful and feminine but the structure is really strong, which I love.” She adds,”My style is very edgy, very daring. I like to take risks – I hate to do the obvious. Style is all about creativity so I like to put things together in my own way.”

Since when did Rihanna become such a fashion maven?!

Either Raven Symone is on some strict diet or she’s rocking a miracle girdle? Check out the rather slimmer mogul at a United Nations event in NYC on Sunday.

Jump-off turned model Amber Rose stopped by the 16th Annual Elle Women in Hollywood tribute in Beverly Hills sans Kanye West. Aside from the tattoos and thankfully no lip ring, Amber looks radiant.

Meanwhile on the east coast, Jennifer Hudson, Shakira and friends partied it up with Donatella Versace at 2009 Whitney Museum gala in NYC. JHud is just poppin’ all over the place…as for Shakira, didn’t Beyonce do this similar look a few months back or am I bugging.

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day in March 2010, supermodel Naomi Campbell and luxury brand Louis Vuitton have teamed up to help raise money for the White Ribbon Alliance, an organization dedicated to reducing preventable maternal deaths. Naomi, who serves as Global Ambassador for the foundation, recently made a personal visit to the Louis Vuitton headquarters in Paris and select a hunter monogrammed bag from the Spring/Summer 2010 collection. A portion of the proceeds from all sales will be donated to the foundation. Wondering how and when can you get your hands on this bag? Well, if you’re ballinnnnn’, the bag retails for $2,800 and will be available in all of Louis’ 439 stores in March.
