Pearls are a girl’s best friend.
Rihanna stepped out solo on Sunday in Los Angeles, wearing a mixture of classic, ladylike staples and ultra-cool streetwear.
The star, 35, was spotted without boyfriend A$AP Rocky draped in layers upon layers of pearls, starting with a vintage Dior by John Galliano choker that once sold for over $12,000 on 1stDibs.
Rihanna paired the past-era piece — comprised of more than a dozen stacked strands of gleaming gemstones — with a Briony Raymond estate pearl necklace studded with emeralds, diamonds and ruby rondelles.
She arrived at the Roc Nation headquarters with her newly lightened hair piled up into a bun and a sheer bra peeking out from beneath her leather-trimmed Khaite top ($1,880).
Baggy Agolde jeans ($228), a Junya Watanabe peplum coat ($2,185) and her own Fenty x Puma creeper sneakers ($140) finished off the ensemble.
The piles of pearls come after the “What’s My Name?” singer made a different bold jewelry statement in Las Vegas, showing up at the F1 Grand Prix sporting a $400,000 diamond watch around her ankle.
And the Bad Gal has always been creative with her jewels, having worn an enormous pear-shaped diamond ring estimated to be worth $600,000 on her toe.
The mom of two, who welcomed second son Riot Rose in August, also shares 1-year-old son RZA with Rocky and is known for her bump-baring maternity outfits.
She’s previously channeled “Like a Virgin”-era Madonna with a similar combination of a black lacy slip dress and rows of pearls, and once grabbed groceries in a ladylike Chanel jacket styled open to show off yet another pearl-choker-and-exposed-bra combo.
We can only imagine she’ll deck out her sons in diamonds and pearls soon enough.
