Happy Birthday to Rihanna’s mother, Monica Braithwaite, who marked another year on Monday.

The singer, who isn’t shy about trying new trends, opted for a pair of sheer pants trouser that are out of this world — and that’s not all. In true Rihanna fashion, she coordinated the mesh pants with a matching brown leather blazer.

Although the birthday celebrant isn’t in the picture, Rihanna has always been speaking about the mother being her beauty inspiration. “My entire concept of beauty came from her,” Rihanna explained to her friend A$AP Rocky in a video for Vogue. “I was always so intrigued there. I wanted to dress like her. I wanted to look like her, do my hair like her, do my makeup like her.”
