If wearing a denim skirt over your menswear-inspired shirt dress—while carrying a Louis Vuitton x Frank Gehry twisted box bag and rocking $720 Balenciaga velvet and patent leather heels on your feet—doesn't make you a style star, we don't know what does.

Rihanna's never been one to follow trends...because she's amazing at setting them. Just look at the casual yet crazy-cool outfit she recently stepped out in!

The style tip here is as simple as finding the right shirt dress for you then slipping a denim skirt over your head and onto your lower half. Leave some of your top's material showing and you've mastered it.

Now, if you love the way Riri's done it, keep your shirt collared for more of a menswear feel, but the style options don't end there. Want to make this look a little sexier? Swap the oversized button down for something more fitted like an off-the-shoulder bodycon. Want to make this look less sexy? A T-shirt dress will do the trick.

As long as there's enough fabric, the under-skirt possibilities are endless.
