bdmetronews Desk ॥ The Steven Khalil peekaboo skirt Naya Rivera wore while out in Los Angeles has been blowing up with fans and fashion watchers. The actress, singer and author says the whole ensemble came about organically. And no, she wasn’t out to shock anyone.
“I was in a fitting and I was looking for a couple of different things for the new year. I came across that outfit. I love that bodysuit and the skirt is amazing. I thought, ‘Why not?’ Let me shake it,” she says. “I’m about to be 30. There are things that I try on and like, but it’s a little young. I’m a mom. I want to dress sexy and fun, but with a little class in it.”
Rivera, who played snarky cheerleader Santana Lopez on Glee and is now starring in the comedy Mad Families, says her style credo is varies depending on what time it is. “It’s weird because I’m Jekyll and Hyde. During the day I’m into oversized T-shirts and dresses and thigh-high boots. If I’m going out, I’ll pull out all the stops – like that skirt,” she tells Yahoo Style.
Of course, as mothers and fathers (and fans of dad-bod) the world over know, being a parent puts fashion on the back-burner much of the time. Rivera, the mom of Josey Hollis Dorsey, 1, was running errands the other day when she realized she had a snowman sticker on her posterior. It’s why, when she’s in mommy mode, she gravitates towards casual gear.
“My son is pretty fashionable too so I have to keep up with him,” she jokes. “During the day, you don’t want to walk out with food stains or stickers on my pants. It sneaks up on you and you don’t know it.”
