$TYLED TO ROCK!

Tonight was the season premiere of Styled to Rock on E (already airing on Bravo), executively produced by Rihanna. Basically the show is about 12 unknown designers who were hand picked by Rihanna herself to live, eat, sleep, and design all under one roof. Every week they will be given a challenge which they then have to create a killer outfit! Along the way there will be surprise visits from celebrities like Khloe Kardashian, Big Sean, Naya Rivera, Miley Cyrus and Kelly Osbourne which the contestants will be able to design an outfit for them. The winner of this competition will receive a spread in Glamour magazine,  $100,000 in CASH and a chance in a lifetime to be apart of Rihanna's design team.

Now to the juice of tonight's episode!

The 12 contestants were lined up with a mannequin that rocked their most creative designs, Rihanna then came out and spoke to each designer to personally get a sense of their style and to know a little more about them. After introducing them to their mentors: Pharrell Williams, Erin Wasson, and Mel Ottenberg they dove right into the competition. Their challenge was to design an outfit inspired by their musical icon. There were design pieces inspired from Nicki Minaj, Prince, Bob Marley and a few others.

Personally, I thought that Rihanna would of been more present in the episode but I guess that's what the mentors are for. I also would of liked Rihanna to keep her hair style constant in the episode but oh well!

My favorite outfit who also won the challenge tonight was created by Ahni Radvanyi who designed an outfit inspired by Nicki Minaj. From winning this challenge Ahni's creation is now on display in the Grammy Museum!

 
It's too early in the competition for drama :( but from watching the sneak peak of this season I can see that changing by many tears being shed and voices escalating!

Twinning it Out for Halloween !


Let's just get this out the way, Rihanna did it better!

On Sunday October 27, 2013 Chris Brown's current girlfriend Karrueche posted a photo of herself to her Instagram, dressed up as a Chola gang member for an early Halloween party. Ironically yesterday Rihanna was also a Chola gang member for Halloween! Personally I love the way Rihanna did it because her whole crew dressed alike and obviously they pulled it off !



Some say Rihanna was trying to out shine Karrueche, but her hair stylist Yusef (top left) posted on Instagram that their costumes were planned months before and not overnight!

Now, let's compare the two girls. They got a few things in common such as the flannel shirt, the crop top, the boxers and the hand signs. Karrueche wanted to be all cute with it by keeping her eyebrows neat while Rihanna wasn't afraid to thin them out. She really went there with the baby hairs gelled down, the bubbles in her hair PLUS the bandana AND the teardrop tattoo! Love it.

There's nothing wrong with them having the same costumes, they already shared the same man so who cares!
