Finally, Cardi B’s hotly-anticipated first studio album, Invasion of Privacy, which features Chance the Rapper, SZA, Migos, and Kehlani, is now available to stream on Apple Music and Spotify. Between letting it slip that she wants a threesome with Chrissy Teigen and Rihanna, and reminding the world (er, Offset) that she’s not one to be cheated on, she offered up a whole list of fashion-y lyrics that we can't wait to use as Instagram captions.
We've had our eye on the Bronx native since before her appearance at the BET Awards last summer (way before the fashion industry became so enthralled with her), so we aren’t surprised that Cardi B 1) now has a certified “get money” rapper style, and 2) is freely flexing her fashion cred on her debut album.
If you consider yourself a Fashion Person™, then we are pleased to tell you that Invasion of Privacy is Insta-caption gold. We’ve done all the heavy-lifting and listened to the album on repeat to pull out its best fashion references. All you have to do is copy and paste.

“Gotta stay outta Gucci (woo), I'm finna run outta hangers (woo).” - “Drip”
The best thing about this lyric isn't that it's about one of the most relevant brands in fashion right now, but that you can very easily swap out Gucci for a store you really do have to stay out of, like, Zara.
“Hit the store, I can get 'em both, I don't wanna choose.” - “Bodak Yellow”
Sure, she’s talking about “bloody shoes,” but feel free to post this in reference to the swimsuits you’re debating on packing for Coachella to wear as tops.
“It’s my birthday, at least that's what I'm dressed like.” - “Best Life”
Save this one for when your ‘fit is flames and you know it.
“I like those Balenciagas, the ones that look like socks.” - “I Like It”
Coincidently enough, so does the rest of the fashion industry, because you can’t step foot into a retailer, fast-fashion or otherwise, without seeing a pair of sock boots.
“Dress me down in that Raf, Saint Laurent jacket, dapper, dapper, I look fine and my checks defined.” - “I Do”
While we appreciate the brand call outs, use this caption the next time you Instagram yourself wearing an on-trend plaid suit. Checks defined? Get it?
“These heels are Givenchy, ho, these are some boss bitch shoes” - “I Do”
No matter the label inside your shoes, remind your followers that you are indeed a boss who makes boss moves, sometimes in “bloody shoes.”
“I wear Off-White at church.” - “She Bad”
It’s a crime and a shame we didn’t have this at our disposal for Easter Sunday. But now we can actually plan to wear Off-White the next time we step into our place of worship.
“Spoil me in Prada, I'm worth every dollar (cash).” - “She Bad”
If you didn’t listen to the full album (judging, by the way), “She Bad” is one of Invasion of Privacy's most quote-worthy songs. See this slide (and the slide before, and the slide after) as proof.
“I could buy designer, but this Fashion Nova fit all that ass.” - “She Bad”
Cardi did this for us, the regular, degular, shmegular girls, and for that reason, we predict you'll start seeing this lyric all over your feed. Bonus points if you’re actually wearing Fashion Nova in the post.
