Steal Her Chic: Rita Ora at Elle Women in Music Event

Last night in NYC, Roc Nation songstress Rita Ora showed up to the Elle Women in Music event, sponsored by Covergirl, donning a black high-low dress, a white tie-neck blouse, leather Mary Janes and a floppy suede black hat - all by Saint Laurent. She looked sophisticated with a touch of downtown cool. I loved how she played with classic black and white using trendy silhouettes.

She topped off her look with loose waves, a red lip and a pop of blue nail color. Here's how to steal her chic - both fashion & beauty:

We got the inside scoop directly from Rita Ora's coiffeur, celebrity stylist Cynthia Alvarez on how she achieved Rita's loose waves:

"I prepped Rita's hair with Ojon's Rare Blend Oil Treatment (2). Once dried, I used a 1" Curling Wand (1) to create loose waves. I left some of the ends straight for a not so perfect look," says stylist Cynthia Alvarez.

"Once the whole head was curled, I raked a quarter-sized amount of Tigi Catwalk Session Series Styling Creme (3) through the hair to break up the curls and add definition. A spritz of Oribe Superfine Hairspray (4) completes this look."
