Rihanna on style: 'I love wearing cool T-shirts with heels'

'Umbrella' hitmaker Rihanna has revealed that she loves casual wear and enjoys teaming relaxing items such as T-shirts and sweat pants with more glamorous footwear for a strong contrasting look. 

Speaking exclusively to the March issue of American Vogue, the Bajan beauty explained that she has a passion for unusual T-shirts and likes to get friends to keep their eyes out for any garments she would like when they're shopping without her:

"I have a friend who is literally searching for cool T-shirts for me all the time because I'm obsessed."

"When you're on tour, you go to rehearse wearing sweats and sneaks. Then you practice your song in the heels you are going to wear that night. I realised, Wow, that looks cool!"

Rihanna added that putting herself through pain for the sake of fashion will always be worthwhile because being in control of how she looks is important to her and helps create a certain image that goes with her career: "It's not about pain. It's about the commitment. I say to myself, 'I want to look like this', and worry about the pain later. I've had nights I had to tiptoe home and the balls of my feet wouldn't even allow me to stand."
