Rihanna Makes Iconic Debut of Louis Vuitton Soccer Monogram Bag
Nothing brings out an athlete's A-game like Rihanna does.
There are even statistics that highlight "The Rihanna Effect" citing the likes of Kevin Durant and Dwight Howard shooting more points and free throws while Rihanna is watching.
RiRi's charm may even captivate the entire team. Triangle Offense's Cameron Wolf shared an infographic that revealed chances a home team wins when Rihanna is in attendance climbs up by 6 percent.
Not to mention, Rih is always killing it with her courtside outfits whether it is a black hoodie or a revealing sports dress.
The "This is What You Came For" singer goes to several sports games cheering courtside at NBA, FIFA, and World Cup games. She has also been linked romantically to athletes like ex-boyfriend baseball outfielder Matt Kemp and Philadelphia '76ers Joel Embid.

Not Looking for Love
This time around, Rihanna is happily in a relationship with billionaire boyfriend Hassan Jameel.
Just this month, the "We Found Love" singer attended the UEFA Champions League soccer match on the side of Juventus Football Club vs. Atletico Madrid. The game was held at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, Italy
Rih went with her brother Rorrey Fenty.
The siblings also wore custom-made Juventus team shirts.
Rorrey had "FENTY #13" written on the back while his famous sis donned "RIRI #20." The jersey number is significant to the singer's birth date. Rihanna's birthday is Feb. 20, 1988.

What She Wore
The beauty mogul donned clothing from her brand FENTY including an oversized shearling coat with matching scarf and accessorized with FENTY aviators.
What really caught the attention of eagle-eyed fans was her soccer ball-shaped LV bag. It was a limited-edition vintage Louis Vuitton made for the 1998 World Cup in France.
The LV monogram soccer bag with brown leather straps is originally priced at $3,500 but is down to $2,800 through some resellers over the holidays.
Rihanna's choice is an inflatable soccer ball bag. Hence, in theory, Rih could have fun kicking that chic soccer ball around the field. It is going to work, but not that she would want to kick that high-ticket LV on the field.

Get the Look
The French brand first partnered with FIFA in 2010. LV designed a solid gold monogrammed travel case custom-made for the World Cup trophy in South Africa.
Louis Vuitton and FIFA have collaborated to launch licensed merchandise for soccer tournaments. Their most recent collection was for the 2018 World Cup in Russia. LV created a made-to-order soccer-inspired keep-all that can be customized with a luggage tag that may be customized the team's national flag.
In case that tiny orb-shaped bag Rihanna donned at the sports match featuring Cristiano Ronaldo's team is too small for you, then opt for the duffel bag.
FIFA licensed the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia duffel bag. It has the soccer ball pattern all over, but it offers plenty of room that makes it more versatile than a small purse like Rih's. It does forego the LV monogram, but has the LV initials at the bottom side part as well as the FIFA World Cup logo.
