It’s safe to say we’re in a Lisa Rinna renaissance at the moment but she’s been here all along, amassing an empire. The multi-hyphenate has written multiple books, founded several companies, had plenty of acting roles over the last few decades, and oh, was a Real Housewife for a bit too. The newest role to add to her ever growing resume? Jet setting fashion icon. Case in point just two days ago she was at the Balenciaga show in Los Angeles, debuting her new platinum blonde hair. And today? Sitting in a hotel room in London, getting ready for the British Fashion Awards, where she’s wearing custom Chet Lo with her hair dyed an inky shade to match. You’d think she would be suffering from jet lag but she’s ready to go, especially with her secret weapon. We caught up with the former Real Housewife ahead of the British Fashion Awards on Monday, so read on to find out what it is, the best decision she’s made this year, and why you might have been pronouncing her name wrong all along.
