Rihanna Beautiful Mink Coat

Rihanna steps out in baggy layers but adds extravagant touch with a mink coat the same one which caused uproar last year

She exposed oodles of flesh in a cut-out evening gown on Wednesday night.

But Rihanna appeared to be feeling more shy come Friday evening when she stepped out in New York in baggy layers.

However, the 26-year-old pop diva added an extravagant touch to her look with a mink coat – notably the same one that had animal cruelty protesters up in arms last year.

With temperatures dropping, Rihanna – who is a known fan of fur clothing and accessories – dug out the pelted knee-length garment for her evening jaunt.

Underneath she wore a loose-fitting graphic print T-shirt with black skinny jeans and donned flat Nike lace-ups on her feet.

She tied her raven locks into a low ponytail, with her fringe swept to the side and donned huge brown cat-eye sunglasses – which appeared to be trimmed with fuzzy felt.

On Wednesday the Bajan beauty looked dramatically different in a risqué evening dress as she attended the amfAR Gala in Hollywood to Honor fashion designer Tom Ford.

The singer had donned a gown, by the man of the evening himself, which left little to the imagination with a hip-high slit and nude panels with purple sequins at the bust.

The star added a further racy touch with thigh high black stockings and purple platform heels. 

Rihanna splashed a lot of cash during the evening, shelling out $35,000 on Harry Winston diamond link earrings featuring 72 diamonds set in platinum.

Rihanna spent some time catching up with old friend Justin Timberlake as they sat side-by-side at the dinner table looking deep in conversation.

The star duo have been friends for years, and collaborated together on her album Rated R for the moody track Cold Case Love.
