Who could\u2019ve guessed that Rihanna would find her second calling as a footwear designer? Already in the midst of an extremely successful sneaker collaboration with Puma \u2014 both her creepers and trainers have been sell-outs, and she hosted her first Puma ready-to-wear show at New York Fashion Week \u2014 the pop star has now focused her gaze on something a bit pricier, and plenty more outrageous: A capsule collection with Manolo Blahnik.<\/p>\n

Called Denim Desserts, the collaboration comprises six limited-edition styles of heels, to be available in only three Manolo Blahnik stores worldwide \u2014 London, New York, and Hong Kong \u2014 and they\u2019ll be priced from $895 to $3,995.<\/p>\n

Of course, this being Rihanna, the heels aren\u2019t your typical go-with-everything pumps. Each shoe involves elements of embroidery and embellishments inspired by Rih\u2019s own intricate tattoos and, of course, lots of denim.<\/p>\n

So far, we\u2019ve previewed four of the six styles: There\u2019s the \u201cSea Salt,\u201d a pointy-toe, mule-style pump in light denim with a sequined overlay and thin ankle strap; the \u201cRih-vi\u2019s,\u201d a dark denim sandal with embellished toe strap; the \u201cDancehall Cowgirl,\u201d a lace-up stiletto bootie with beading around the shaft; and the pi\u00e8ce de r\u00e9sistance \u2014 the \u201c9 to 5,\u2033 a waist-high, dark denim stiletto boot with a jewel-encrusted belt attached. They\u2019re basically the footwear version of ass-less chaps.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re brave enough to wear those babies, Rihanna herself has a warning for you. \u201cThose boots are dangerous!\u201d she told British Vogue. \u201cIf you\u2019re trying to get back home to your bed, don\u2019t wear them boots! You will get kidnapped in those boots; those boots are trouble.\u201d<\/p>\n
