Rihanna Drips in Diamonds for a Girls’ Night Out in NYC
Rihanna went wild during a girls’ night out in New York City.
On Friday, the singer took a break from her Fenty Beauty press tour to have some fun with longtime friend Melissa Forde at celebrity hot spot Pergola. For the occasion, RiRi wore a black minidress with blue and red mesh overlays, and wrapped herself up in a fluffy zebra-print jacket. A known lover of fur outerwear—remember her heart-shaped Yves Saint Laurent coat?—Rihanna looked like a true personal fashion killa.
Naturally, she accessorized with a diamond collar necklace and layered some diamond tennis necklaces on top for good measure. On her arm, she carried a black quilted shoulder bag from Gucci, complete with a silver horsebit, chain, and $3,890 price tag. Rihanna sparkled from head to toe with the help of small diamond earrings and a diamond anklet on her right foot, and she matched her designer bag with pointed black heels and black square-shaped sunglasses. A gold ring seemed to be the only non-diamond piece of jewelry she wore.
A head-turning glam was also a must for the Fenty Beauty founder. She wore her hair in blonde braids, which she wrapped around her head and pinned into place with multiple crystal pins and a large diamond flower clip. Her perfectly manicured brows matched her blonde locks, while a pair of fluttery false eyelashes made her green eyes pop. A brown lip liner and clear gloss finished off her look.
The singer recently made history by becoming the top female solo artist with the most diamond-certified hits—making her diamond-dripping outfit all the more fitting. After all, if there’s one person who knows how to celebrate in style, it’s Rihanna.
