Rihanna Returns to Her Go-to Amina Muaddi Snake Print Pumps for Christmas Shopping
Rihanna is a high heels girl through and through, even while Christmas shopping in Los Angeles on Tuesday. The singer was spotted in a stylish yet lowkey ensemble after shopping at The Gap store at The Grove shopping mall, making a stop at CVS Pharmacy for holiday essentials like gift bows.

The singer opted for a bright red calfskin jacket by Celine. The men’s jacket featured a loose fit, and two flap pockets, an elasticated waistband on the back and a zip closure. She paired it with a white T-shirt underneath, loose-fitting black jeans with a wide leg and a Celine spring 2026 gold chain belt around her hips. She topped off the look with a ’47 New York Yankees Sure Shot hat in navy blue.
She dressed up the casual look with Amina Muaddi’s Barbara 105mm Mary Jane Pumps, which retail for
$1,010. The Barbara pumps are crafted from snake-printed leather and feature a classic mary jane silhouette, elevated by a towering stiletto heel measuring around 4.1 inches. The shoe features a sharp, pointed-toe silhouette and a slim ankle strap with a silver buckle closure.

The shoe also features a d’Orsay design, with distinctive cuts on the inner and exterior sides of the shoes. Since the sides of the shoe are scooped out, they reveal the arch of the Fenty Beauty founder’s feet. The vamp sits closer to the toes on this shoe, which then leads to the elongated pointed toe design, giving the shoes a sharp and structured appearance.
Amina Muaddi also offers the Barbara style in knee-high boots and ankle boots versions. Rihanna has been spotted wearing the Barbara knee-high on numerous occasions, and it has become her go-to court shoe while she supported partner A$AP Rocky during his trial earlier this year. The singer has worn the pumps and boots, pairing them with wide-legged jeans, dresses, trousers and more, and has transformed the snake-print design into a neutral footwear option.

Rihanna and Muaddi have had a longstanding friendship and collaboration over the years. Their connection reportedly began in 2018 when Rihanna’s stylist, Jahleel Weaver, reached out to the footwear designer on Instagram after buying her shoes for Rihanna. Rihanna has since become a frequent wearer and supporter of the brand, which led to Muaddi helping the singer design shoes for Fenty.
