Rihanna Wore Sky-High Boots With a Comically Large Version of This Major Fall Trend

My obsession with fall fashion has a lot to do with how cozy the season’s styles are. I’ll never complain about getting dressed when what I’m putting on is as soft as, if not softer, than my pajamas. The one thing I struggle with year after year, though, is figuring out how to dress up some fall time essentials. More often than not, I look pretty frumpy. Fortunately, Rihanna just gave a masterclass in how to do just that.

The star went to dinner in Los Angeles, wearing an outfit that was somehow chic, sexy, and cozy all at once. As someone who has been trying to find that balance, I took notes.

Rihanna.

No part of Rihanna’s outfit fell outside the norm of this season’s fashion. In fact, she was wearing a bunch of fall staples—they just happened to be the coolest versions of them. Her sweater dress was loosely knit, giving it a subtly sheer look, and included a front zipper that she used to create both a deep V and super-high leg slit. Poking out from that slit was a pair of pointed-toe, thigh-high black bootsa.k.a., the sexiest version of fall’s most classic footwear. She finished off the look with oversized black sunnies and a trending burgundy bag so big, it almost looked like she was carrying a duffle.

Rihanna’s outfit was a good reminder that it’s possible to do cozy and chic at the same time. Her dresswhich mixed soft knitwear with a surprisingly revealing design, became my immediate obsession; I, too, want to be that cozy while looking that sexy. While she went for a pretty major leg reveal, even a small one could zhuzh up the otherwise classic style—with a zipper or button-frontyou can decide just how much skin you want to show. But it’s also those shoes! Over-the-knee boots make any outfit—whether it’s Rihanna’s sweater dress, Anne Hathaway’s mini dress and floor-length coat, or Taylor Swift’s football jersey—instantly hotter.

Rihanna wore an outfit that reminded me fall fashion doesn’t have to be frumpy. Whether you want her sexy take on a timeless sweater dress or those boots that can make all of your fall styles a little chicer—or, hey, maybe both—I found lookalikes for each, below.
