As Rihanna knows all too well, it's not easy being an internationally recognized style icon attending a sporting event. Your closet is filled with sheer mini dresses and beaded ball gowns, but the rest of the crowd is wearing jeans and t-shirts.

Clearly "The Monster" singer can't stoop to the clothing choices of the masses, and yet RiRi needs to strike a balance between fashion lover and sports fan. We say she succeeded with this tennis dress and sneaks, and here are the three reasons why:

1. She's rocking Clippers colors! No, it's not a Blake Griffin jersey, but the red, blue and white is right on the mark meaning the "Diamonds" singer puts her team love above her shade favorite: black.

2. She's casual but cute. Just because there are men sweating it out in basketball shorts, doesn't mean this Bahamian beauty has to dress to their level. She achieves a laid-back vibe in an absolutely adorable cut.

3. She's not wearing giant high heels! This may be the most impressive move of all. The L.A. sports scene is known to feature a 5 inch heel or two (hundred...), so we're proud to see this footwear fanatic rocking her Lady Foot Locker find.

So take note, athletic-loving A-listers. This is how you rock stadium style without inducing an eye-roll from everyone who actually paid for their tickets.
