“And yes I gave birth in pearls and sunglasses…don’t ask, a lot was happening,” Rihanna continued, referring to the second photo. In it, Rihanna is wearing pink sunglasses and pearls around her neck. Not to mention, perfectly manicured nails.

Rihanna recounts giving birth in style and shares photos of ‘the most powerful thing I’ve done as a woman’ in honor of International Women’s Day.

As Rihanna indicated, the first photo is of her getting some post-birth skin-to-skin time with RZA Athelston Mayers, who’s laying on his mom’s chest, near her jewelry-adorned neck. The second photo is of Rih and Riot Rose Mayers, enjoying an intimate moment looks up at the camera from behind her pink-framed sunglasses.
