Any time Rihanna steps out in public, I’m left taking notes. The multi-hyphenate—who recently announced her third pregnancy before the Met Gala on May 5—is known for internet-breaking red carpet moments, and her appearance at 2025’s Cannes Film Festival on May 19 was no exception.

During a hot July day in the summer of 2023, my best friends and I were sitting on a boat playing a game. Each person went around the circle and explained how they’d describe each friend to a stranger who’d never met them. We laughed about the quirks that defined us that sounded ridiculous when you separated them from the whole of the person—“her accent gets 10x stronger after a second glass of wine”—and argued about the different ways we could depict each of our strongest traits.

I take after my mom in more ways than not. I’ve always resembled her physically, but now that I’m an adult, I can see that the traits of hers I tried so hard to bypass as an adolescent are the same ones I’m grateful to have now. I’ll always be happy to have inherited my mom’s ability to laugh at herself and the way she prioritizes her friendships, but perhaps most of all—I do owe my career to it—I’m glad I inherited her appreciation for style.

A few weeks before I started seventh grade (after many months of begging), my mom took me to my local mall’s MAC counter to get my very first makeup products. After 45 minutes of getting shade matched, I left the store with a bottle of MAC Face & Body, a concealer, and a compact of the blush ‘Melba’ in tow. I put the coral-peach on my cheeks every day for years after that.
