There’s a lot you can do with gorgeous footwear. They say you can get away with wearing a lousy outfit as long your shoes are divine — something that I find 100% accurate.

Take for example, the questionable shirtdress Rihanna wore to the 2016 Billboard Awards last evening. The pop singer arrived at the event in a brown silk number that was wrinkled in places. It also featured drop-shoulder sleeves that did little to flatter Rihanna’s broad-shouldered figure. Thankfully, her footwear choice more than made up for the ill-fitting attire.

On Ri-Ri’s feet were pointed and jeweled mules. They were delicate, ladylike, and simply pretty. And yes, they elevated Rihanna’s mediocre pink-carpet style to perfection.

How do you like Rihanna’s outfit choice for the BMAs? On point or could have done better?

I say it’s the latter. But I’m loving her shoes, that’s for sure.

Ri-Ri’s shirtdress is from Thierry Mugler’s spring 1988 collection. Yep, it’s an archive piece. If you fancy it, I’m sure it’ll be easy for you to find a similar cut. Drop shoulder-sleeved dresses aren’t exactly unique these days.

As for her fancy heels, they’re from Manolo Blahnik — the Borli mules. They’re no longer available on the web, but for your reference, here they are up close in blue and green satin:

The Borli mules feature mixed media uppers of black crochet lace laid over colored satin fabric. They also come with very distinct and large crystal-encrusted square buckles that scream opulence.

If you fancy the Borli, then I have no doubt you’ll want to own a pair of the “Zullin” satin pumps from Blahnik as well. They feature a flattering d’Orsay silhouette and come decorated with beautiful jewels at the ankle straps. Wear with a brown silk shirtdress to steal Ri-Ri’s style:
