Novelty sweatshirts are making a comeback and they aren’t just for schlepping around anymore. If you cringe at the thought of wearing a sweatshirt for a glam occasion, you shouldn’t! Dress up your favorite pair of denim with a cute, oversized, vintage hoodie or pair your slogan Kenzo sweatshirt with a hot little mini skirt for perusing around town. Sweatshirts aren’t just for working out anymore — they are fashion forward go-to’s and perfect as we head into the cooler months. Stylish, functional, and comfy? We have a winner!
One celebrity who seems to have mastered this trend is 24-year-old “We Found Love” singer, Rihanna, who has been spotted in fancy sweatshirts from London to Los Angeles. The songstress sported a red, cannabis-printed sweatshirt as she landed in London on August 27th, pairing the top with a high-slit maxi skirt, her custom-made Gucci bag, and converse sneaks — representing the perfect high-low combo.
The Grammy Award winner donned a black Trapstar hoodie over a tight leather burgundy mini skirt and Tom Ford over-the-knee anaconda boots as she departed her vehicle. While grabbing a bite to eat at one of her fave hot spots in Santa Monica, CA — Giorgio Baldi — Rihanna chose a more casual look, pairing a limited edition Adidas Originals by Jeremy Scott “Shoe Memory” oversized sweatshirt with funky Adidas x Jeremy Scott leopard kicks and a pink, Joyrich Cash Flow Dollar Sign Hat. #Badass! A few nights ago, dining at Emilio Ballato, Rihanna paired Pushbutton’s “Original” black and gold cropped novelty sweatshirt with black skinny jeans.
