Have you ever woken up and realized the dress you wore last week just doesn't fit today? Believe it or not, Rihanna has been there too.

The pop star and fashion designer recently opened up about her ever-changing shape, and how she approaches getting dressed in the morning. Spoiler alert: Finding the right outfit isn't a walk in the park for her either.

"I actually have had the pleasure of a fluctuating body type, where one day I can literally fit into something that is bodycon, and then the next day, the next week, I need something oversized," Rihanna told The Cut. "I need a little crop here and a high waist there to hide that part, you know?"

Rihanna, who spoke to the website to promote her latest fashion collection, encouraged girls to assess how they're feeling before choosing an outfit.

"I really pay attention every day when I go into the closet about what's working for my body that morning," she said. "I feel like that's how everyone should go after fashion, because it's an individual thing. And then, if you take it further, it's like: What week are you having? You having a skinny week? You having a fat week? Are we doing arms this week? We doing legs this week? We doing oversized?"

"I love to play with silhouettes as well, but I think it's important to make sure that you wear the thing that works for your body the best, and that's flattering," she continued.
