Style Showdown: Rita Ora vs. Rihanna

In one corner we have the "R.I.P." singer and British rising star Rita Ora--making headlines for her out-there sense of style, stunning looks and, oh yeah, her burgeoning music career (buoyed by her mentor, Jay-Z). In the other we have Rihanna, the Barbados native that almost needs no introduction. The two women are style stars in their own right but there are times when they are mirror images of each other. See who wore it best as we dissect these style twins' best and most identical looks.
