Rihanna Khaki Jeans are the Chicest Alternative to Blue Pairs

Any fashion mum juggling the countless demands of an early morning will know that putting together an outfit that can see you through the rest of the day in style isn’t always top of the agenda when you’re caught up in the morning maelstrom. That’s precisely why having a handful of simple, reliable and chic outfit formulas on lock pays dividends, helping you feel pulled together long after the morning drop-off.

When it comes to finding inspiration for these everyday looks, I always find it helpful to turn to some of the industry’s chicest fashion mums. And who better to look towards than Rihanna? Mother of three, singer, entrepreneur and style icon, she’s something of an expert when it comes to balancing a busy schedule with an enviable off-duty wardrobe. This week, as she stepped out in New York, the star served up an especially good example, swapping her usual blue jeans for an elevated alternative that made her otherwise relaxed look feel even more considered.

Building a chic, tonal outfit, Rihanna opted for a pair of rich khaki trousers, teaming them with a knit in a deep forest-green shade. The two colours worked harmoniously together, creating a rich, understated combination that felt seasonally appropriate and polished.
