Â*Rihanna's August photoshoot for In Style features some awesomely fierce shoe choices. Behold:
First up, some uber-tall Louboutins, the epitome of sexy in deep, sinful red suede and towering stiletto heels (<a href="http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446199 303&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=282574492709417& ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474399545537&bmUID= 1217464454890&ev19=1:4" target="_blank">the Declic pump</a>, if I'm not mistaken, $685 at Saks):
