Elevate Your Stay-At-Home Style With The Slip Dress
With the majority of our wardrobe being untouched these last few months, the time has arrived to begin easing back into those neglected closet staples, ending the steady rotation of the knitwear and sweatpants we've grown so accustomed to. Worn for both comfort and leisure, the slip dress is a stylish alternative to relaxed and casual loungewear inside and outdoors. Even as we climb out from under stay-at-home orders, comfort is still important to the everyday woman, yet the idea of dressing for fun again is becoming more of a reality. The slip dress not only gracefully drapes our natural curves but it's also a canvas of opportunity to accessorize and effortlessly elevate your stay-at-home style. Read on to learn how.

Prints are always fun and exciting, adding a personal spin to the concept of a slip dress. Combined with soft tones and satin material, the draped bust and midi length of the slip dress is a modest yet chic approach to loungewear for all ages. Pair this with dainty jewelry or nothing at all for a dress that is stunning all on its own.

Rihanna On Letting God Lead Her Relationship With A$AP Rocky: 'I...Just Let Go'
Rihanna is spilling all the tea about her relationship with A$AP Rocky. The couple has been on our radar since rumors about them dating began back in 2020, wondering what they were going to wear next and whether they were serious. Well, a few short years later, they both became parents to two sons, RZA and Riot, and they continue to support each other.
Rocky was there when Rihanna performed at the 2023 Super Bowl and he's supported her on the red carpet at her Fenty Beauty events. The "Kiss it Better" singer has attended her "Fashion Killa" collaborator's shows, such as his Paris Fashion Week concert and Spotify Beach concert at the Cannes Lions Festival.
In her cover story with Interview, the billionaire songstress opens up about her relationship with Rocky, sharing how they got together and whether she wants more kids. Here are the highlights:

"Isn’t he the best? I be feeling bummy as shit next to this man. I feel like, goddamn, I look like his assistant. I’m getting on a plane. We should be in sweats. He wants to be in a full Bottega suit. I’m like, “Why you got to do that to me?”
Rihanna On Performing with A$AP Rocky for the First Time
Rihanna explained how the Harlem rapper "grabbed my ass" during their 2012 VMA performance, but she didn't get mad. “Ah, nah.” That’s why everybody was like, “Oh my god. She likes him.”
Rihanna On When She And A$AP Rocky Began Dating
"We saw fashion the same. We saw creative the same. We ended up in the same circles a lot. And past that, when we grew up, we ended up supporting each other’s brands and products and creative all the time. I would wear his shit, he would show up to my launches. But it wasn’t until the end of 2019—"
Rihanna on Dating With Caution
"No! We’ve known each other for a long time. I’ve seen him in relationships. He’s seen me in relationships. We’ve seen each other outside of relationships. We knew what we’re capable of, and the trouble that we could bring to each other’s lives. We can make or break each other’s hearts. And so, we started dating with a lot of caution.
I just let whatever was supposed to happen, happen. It was just, “This is a flower. It’s either going to die or blossom. But I’m going to let it decide itself.”

"COVID sped up our relationship, which I felt like god knew we needed because we were going to start a family. And had it not been for COVID, we would’ve taken a lot more time to get comfortable with each other, to even know that we were ready."
Rihanna on Letting Go In Her Relationship with A$AP Rocky
"I let god lead and just let go. Because in previous relationships, I tried and tried and tried my best, and you still feel like it’s not enough. So when someone sees you completely, and believes in you, and thinks you’re worthy of being the mother of their kids, it’s a great feeling. I felt the same about him. I knew he would be a great dad."
Rihanna on Wanting More Kids
"I don’t know what god wants, but I would go for more than two. I would try for my girl. But of course if it’s another boy, it’s another boy."
