Everyone did a second look when Rihanna was spotted shopping in Melrose Avenue recently, wearing a Gladiator boots from Balenciaga .

People will definitely stop and ogle at the sexy R&B singer because she is Rihanna, duh, but most of them looked at her little bit longer because of the outrageously designed Balenciaga gladiator boots Rihanna was proudly wearing.

The fashionista netizens are clearly having a field day either bashing her or loving her sense of style.  However, even if they do love or hate it, few people can afford strutting with this pair Balenciaga creations; they are worth, $6495!

It came out in two colors, black just like the one Rihanna was wearing and a red version designed by fashion forward Balenciaga designer, Nicolas Ghesquiere.

Rihanna is not undoubtedly not fazed with the negativities since she was seen wearing the Balenciaga Gladiator Boots in several occasions.  She is in love with her boots.  It would have worked for her if she was strutting on top of a stage in a concert but on a sunny day walking around shops, it was over the top.

Fashion icon Angelina Jolie is an A-lister in Hollywood that can sport anything she can grab whatever is inside her closet, run her fingers through her hair and can come out looking so fabulously gorgeous.

She is one of the very few women who can afford to fall into the trap of fashion don’ts but still managed to look unbelievably amazing. Some fashion editors say it is because of the kind of beauty she has. It balances out the fashion mishaps she sometimes gets into.

Angelina Jolie has the luck of acquiring one great thing that most women would die for and that is her immunity to fashion pitfalls and of course it surely does not hurt to have Brad Pitt on your side whenever you take a stroll on the red carpet.

It is not surprising that she is being hounded by the paparrazi globally. She looked absolutely so good may it be in jeans in a humanitarian mission in India or in a vintage Hermes evening gown during the Screen Actors Guild Awards night. Her pictures are worth millions, her photos with partner Brad Pitt who is as famous as she is; are worth millions.

The people are just fascinated with this woman and that anything connected to her is newsworthy. Just imagine, her baby daughter Shiloh’s clothes were a fashion hit when she appeared on the cover of a popular magazine in the past. She wore a Kingsley Pots and Pans Band Tee. Her new twins, Vivienne and Knox Jolie-Pitt reportedly got USD$14M from People Magazine for just a chance to have their photos.

Angelina Jolie, with her to die for lips will always be effortlessly stylish.
