If there’s one woman who can wear just about anything from uber-glam to flip-flop casual, it’s Rihanna.

The Fenty Beauty owner has proven over and over again that she is, without a doubt, a true style icon.

She wears what she pleases and does so unapologetically.

The 34-year-old “Umbrella” hitmaker and ASAP Rocky welcomed their first child in May.

While the new mom had been laying low since then, she’s recently stepped out to watch her baby’s daddy live in concert in Portugal and Berlin.

Most recently the couple has been spotted while out for midnight strolls around New York.

In the same way that Riri embraced her changing pregnancy body, doing maternity style in a way only she can, she’s now embraced her post-pregnancy body.

The singer has obviously gained a bit of weight due to pregnancy which is perfectly normal.

However, that has not stopped her from being the Riri we all know and love. The fashion icon who will even make the dreaded preggy weight gain look good.

We all know she loves her baggy style and right now it’s working so well for her.

Over the past weekend, she did however show us some leg when she stepped out in a short black body-hugging dress which she paired with black heels and a white jacket.

It’s so refreshing to see a celebrity keeping it real about the issue of weight gain post-pregnancy.

Too often do we see stars show up a few weeks after giving birth with bodies looking better than when before they had the baby.

Leaving us mere mortals wondering “Where did her belly go? Where are the large engorged breasts? Where are the swollen ankles?”

These are all normal and we’re loving how Rihanna is showing the new moms out there that it IS okay to look that way AND be cool at the same time.

Thank you Riri for always keeping it real, but when are we going to see the baby?
