The cat is finally out the bag, and Rihanna is officially expecting her third child with A$AP Rocky. The Fenty Beauty founder debuted her baby bump on the Met Gala red carpet last night, leaving fans in awe. She transitioned from her Marc Jacobs ensemble into an all black Ann Demeulemeester look for the after-party.

Many people have speculated that Rihanna is pregnant, considering that every time she has recently stepped out for an event, she has worn baggy clothes and loose silhouettes. In true Rihanna fashion, she revealed her pregnancy in the most extravagant way.

Now that she no longer has to be discreet, you can see a sense of relief on the Barbadian princess face. Her black Ann Demeulemeester monochromatic ensemble consisted a ruffled silk open top layered with a satin blazer, and skirt that had leather detailing. She accessorized with a black lace drag, a beautiful diamond necklace, and studded earrings. Her diamond rings makes us question whether she and A$AP have secretly tied the knot. She complete her look with black lace Louboutins that were the perfect shoe candy.

Kim Kardashian and North West Spotted in Los Angeles in Pink Victoria Secret Pajamas

It feels like North West grew up overnight, as the 11-year old is now standing taller than her mom Kim Kardashian.

Paparazzi captured the mother and daughter duo leaving PureLux Scalp Spa in Los Angeles over the weekend, donning matching pink Victoria Secret pajamas.

North looked comfortable as she stepped out in her cheetah print bonnet and black Balenciaga fur slippers while Kim kept things chic, layering her PJ’s with a black leather trench.

Originally retailing for $79.95, the Victoria Secret Modal Soft Long pajama set they wore is a customer favorite and comes with drawstring pants for the perfect tucked in look. With a buttery feel, and a good amount of stretch, these may just be the best jammies on the market.

Of course, there were a few mixed reviews about Kim and North wearing pajamas in public, but under the circumstances of a spa day, we totally get it. Nonetheless our Fashion Bomb readers didn’t take the fifth.

@jessmenardy wrote “As a Haitian I do not approve this attire. Pajamas are for inside. This has me so stressedšŸ˜‚.” Contrary, @Keepingupwithhrosie shared, “šŸ˜‚I love how Kim lets her kids express themselves and not worry about opinions this was so cute…šŸ’•”

Back in the day, stepping out in pajamas may have been considered a fashion crime, however in 2025, sleepwear has become a very prominent trend. We say more power to Kim and North, and perhaps their best accessory was their confidence.
