Rihanna walks the streets of NYC in style. The “Do Ya Thang” singer was spotted while out and about in New York City on Tuesday night.

For the ensemble, Rihanna donned a black and blue plaid oversized jacket by Balenciaga that featured a zipper and two big front pockets. Underneath, she wore the label’s black stretchy turtleneck and leggings that added some functionality to the look. She accessorized with a black Raf Simons baseball cap and glittery dangling earrings.

To ground things, Bad Gal Riri popped on a pair of black Balenciaga Knife boots that gave her outfit a sporty, athletic twist. This silhouette of boot has gained popularity over the years and worn on the feet of celebrities like Rita Ora, Kendall Jenner and Cardi B, and more recently, Kim Kardashian. The boots are available for $995 at Farfetch.com.
