Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Many people around the world don’t have the opportunity to be surrounded by friends and family, let alone, have a warm home cooked meal. Thank God that He is the God of more than enough and that we have the option to choose what we want to eat and when we want to eat it!

 

Love,

The Ladies of RTB

Style Inspiration: 90s Grunge, Rihanna’s “We found Love” Video

She starts off with…

It’s like you’re  s c r e a m i n g  but no one can hear. You almost feel ashamed that someone could that be that important, that without them you feel like nothing. No one will ever understand how much it hurts. You feel hopeless like nothing can save you. And when it’s over and it’s gone, you almost wish that you could have all that bad stuff back so you could have the good.”

Has anyone ever had that moment in their life where they could relate to that?

*raises hand*

When I first heard this song on the radio, this video was NOT what I was expecting! I imagined the same ol’ club banger/bubble gum pop video with the roller skates and such. But no, this chick busted out with skate boards,  poppin’ pills in dirty studio apartments in acid wash jeans, biker boots and torn pantyhose with a hot, grungy British boyfriend who she seems to have amazing chemistry with.The love affair, littered with substance abuse, portrays the dark and euphoric  aspects of being in love that a lot of people can probably relate to.

Check out the video—–> HERE

I wonder who the stylist was..Her ensembles had a 90s influence with some on-trend pieces for the current season. As far as jewelry I’m loving the layered necklaces, multiple rings on one hand, the miniature cross earrings and stacked bracelets. Below is an outfit suggestion to emulate Rihanna’s look for this video,  all clothing courtesy of TopShop, in recognition of the Brits (with the exception of that Zara blouse)!

Loooove this blouse from Zara. There are a lot of items I have my eyes on in that store…O_O

This LOVE double finger ring is from our store and I thought it was so appropriate with this look! This one and this one also work!
