Ri Ri's Fall 2013 River Island Collection.

I must say Miss Rihanna, you are becoming quite the designer. This trumps the Summer line ridiculously. Yes, the first collection had some edge and funk, but it wasn't distinguishable from the rest and it was pretty simple. This right here? I will be on time for.

Adam Selman, Rihanna's co-designer, told Vogue "The way I approach winter style is to layer up summer clothes, and Rihanna does the same." This is probably why we see the crop tops, high slits, and cut-outs. It may be cooling off outside, but we mustn't neglect the sexy.

Rihanna for River Island Debuts at London Fashion Week.

London Fashion Week popped off, and Rihanna subsequently p-popped in delight due to her debut Rihanna x River Island collection with co-designer Adam Selman. She was reportedly a hour late to her 10 minute show, which has given some fashion folks the salty face. People were trying to say "What do you expect? It's Rihanna" and what not, BUT honestly being young or raunchy does not excuse professionalism. Don't give people a reason to hate, especially when you work is good. Surprise some folks and be on your A-Game with the business, and party hard during your free time. But I digress.....

The collection was actually pretty cool though, brought out to a soundtrack of "Clique", "Fucking Problems" and "Fresh Off the Runway." It was simple, but effective. Of course it wasn't going to be the most high fashion thing you've ever witnessed in life, but it was fun and pretty fly, and I, my friend, can not be mad at it.  Very Rihanna and adorable.

Extra high splits, denim on denim, bra tops, and etc. I have to say that I liked it. The pieces were really simple, but swaggy, with backwards baseball caps, bandanas, and shirts tied at the waist here and there. Not typical things you'd expect from a runway show, but hey, it's her first line. We'll expect more next time.

Watch her show here.

Rihanna Will Unveil New Fashion Line at London Fashion Week.

During London Fashion week next month, our favorite bad girl Rih Rih will unveil her first clothing line with British brand River Island. I expect it to be highkey badass, lowkey "high fashion". It'll most likely be ready to wear urban glam, thuggish ruggish Bone type shit.

“Launching at London Fashion Week is a dream come true for me,” said Rihanna. ” I have wanted to design my own collection for a long time and to present my collection for River Island alongside all of the other great design talent at LFW is a real privilege. I can’t wait to see the reaction from my fans and the fashion press!”

Her collection of clothes and accessories for River Island will debut February 16 at an invite-only catwalk show. Items will be available at River Island in Great Britain and will hit the US and Japan through Opening Ceremony starting March 5. I'm a little excited to see what ideas she comes up with for her line. One of the only sneak peaks we have is the navy jumpsuit she was seen rocking last month, which can be seen below.

So what do you think? Are you excited, curious, or just meh?
