Rihanna goes from Daisy Dukes to red leather thigh-highs on LA outing

By Juliet Paylor

Rihanna has always been one to walk to the beat of her own drum.

And when it comes to her personal style, you'll certainly never see her following trends or rules.

After donning a pair of miniscule denim cut-off shorts and marijuana leaf earrings as she shopped
at a baby boutique in West Hollywood on Tuesday afternoon, the star slipped into yet another questionable outfit that included racy thigh-high red leather boots as she headed to her favourite restaurant for dinner that night.
Regretting your wardrobe choice? After emerging from her car at her favourite Italian restaurant, Giorgio Baldi, in Santa Monica, the star adjusted her rolled-up sleeves before clutching her arms around her waist, looking downcast as she made her way into the eatery

From bad to worse! Rihanna opted for a miniscule pair of denim cut-offs, a white pinstripe wrap-style shirt and nude strappy stilettos as she shopped in West Hollywood on Tuesday, before changing into bright red leather thigh-high boots, a charcoal dress and oversized denim shirt for dinner

The 26-year-old matched her footwear to her fire-engine-red lipstick for the meal at Giorgio Baldi
in Santa Monica.

She completed her outfit with a charcoal mini-dress and an oversized men's style stone washed denim jacket by '90s brand Cross Colours that was rolled up at the sleeves and worn unbuttoned.

Emerging from her car, the star adjusted her sleeves before clutching her arms around her waist
as she walked into the eatery with her head down, unable to muster even the smallest of smiles.

The songstress had been in a great mood earlier in the day as she shopped up a storm at Petit Trésor, before moving on to a sushi lunch.

Cheer up, Charlie! Despite being in a great mood earlier in the day - and being at her favourite place - RiRi was decidedly glum, keeping her head down and unable to raise even the smallest smile during her outing

Colour-coordinated: The 26-year-old matched her fire-engine-red boots to her lipstick for dramatic effect, while she was flashing much less flesh than previously that afternoon

She was once again impossible to miss in her head-turning outfit as she stocked up on six large bags full of gifts at the West Hollywood store on Robertson Boulevard.

At first glance, it appeared as though she had forgotten her pants entirely, with barely more than an unusual wrap-style white pinstripe shirt and strappy nude stilettos visible, exposing her long, tanned legs in all their glory.

However, on closer inspection, a pair of miniscule tattered pale blue denim cut-offs were actually protecting her modesty - barely - which were more noticeable from behind as she turned around.

'Rated R': The hitmaker may have been mostly covered up, but her charcoal mini-dress and boots added an undeniable sex appeal to her ensemble

RiRi was in full glamazon mode for her outing, with a fresh fluoro pink mani-pedi and her long dark mane styled in loose messy voluminous waves.

Her make-up was also beautifully applied, with her eyes played up with a slick of kohl liner and shimmery bronze shadow, her pout painted a stunning ruby red with a matte finish.

She accessorised with tons of gold jewellery - from stacks of pretty bangles on each wrist to colourful gemstone rings on almost every digit, and several choker-style spiky gold necklaces, while she was also still wearing the gold marijuana-leaf earrings she donned in celebration of 420 'weed day' over the weekend.

Daring to bare! Earlier that afternoon, the star was clad in barely-there short shorts which were easily missed from the front as she shopped up a storm at Petit Trésor baby boutique in West Hollywood

While the star was showing more than her fair share of skin, her tuxedo-style shirt, which was rolled at the sleeves, was loose-fitting and contained her curves modestly.

The Talk That Talk hitmaker emerged from the store empty-handed following her shopping spree, letting her burly bodyguard do the heavy lifting.

The security personnel left the boutique prior to the Bajan beauty, loaded down with half a dozen bags full to the brim of goodies for one or more lucky recipients.

After working up an appetite, it was then on to Sushiya at Sunset Pla! za for a bite to eat, washed down by a cold beverage served in a glass bottle.

Work it, girl! The star was only too happy to play up to the cameras, tossing her long dark wavy locks back as she gazed over her shoulder

The previous day, singer-songwriter Sia revealed that it took her just 14 minutes to write the song Diamonds for RiRi.

The 2012 tune, which was an instant hit for the songstress, topped more than 20 charts around the world, including the US, giving the star her 12th number-one single on the Billboard Hot 100.

Certified quadruple platinum, the song sold more than 7.5 million copies, making it one of the best-selling singles in history.

Hardly G-rated: The singer certainly chose an interesting and perhaps not entirely suitable ensemble for her visit to the luxury baby boutique, not that she seemed to notice or care in the slightest

Speaking to the New York Times about her writing process, the Australian admitted Diamonds came easily to her.

After laying down the demo track with co-writer and producer Benny Blanco, Sia was then surprised when he played her Rihanna's version, which she had recorded virtually note for note.

'We listened to it on his iPod, sitting on a sofa at ABC Carpet And Home in New York,' she recalls.
'I literally punched him in the arm. I thought Benny was playing a trick on me. She could've done
it her own way, but I think she really genuinely liked the way it was.'
