Debuting in the April issue of Vogue, Rihanna takes the opportunity of her cover shoot to show off her newest collaboration, a shoe line with the one and only Manolo Blahnik. This edgy capsule collection, called “Denim Desserts” has a decadence of a dessert with the sass and style Rihanna is known for. The singer and shoe designer worked hand-in-hand to create these 6 limited edition designs fashionistas everywhere are lining up to get.
Rihanna brought in her own inspiration of denim a little bit of cowgirl for the collection, while Manolo brought his classic details. Gorgeous beading and rhinestones are dawned on all of the shoes, from the more simplistic double strap heels, up to the bedazzled booties.
The most adventurous and expensive pair of shoes of the collection are the full leg denim boots that also double as a cowgirl’s “chaps”, being held up by a killer denim belt. These shoes definitely take a certain person to pull off, so we cannot wait to see which celebrities and bloggers will take the risk and try out this cowgirl-gone-glam look.

The collection’s six limited-edition designs, priced between £650 and £2,950, which will be exclusive to the London, New York and Hong Kong stores come May 5.
