She's a talented singer and dancer, and has even branched out into the world of fashion in recent years.

And it would seem Rihanna has yet another string to add to her bow as she displayed her hairdressing skills on best pal Cara Delevingne in New York on Tuesday.

The 25-year-old singer treated her supermodel friend to a spot of pampering before they headed out to ring in 2014 on New Year's Eve.

Posting a number of intimate snaps on her Instagram page, the Diamonds hitmaker was seen whipping up the British catwalk queen's long blonde locks into a high ponytail as they prepared to head out for a night on the town.

 

Showcasing her killer figure in all its glory, the Bajan beauty looked incredible in a plunging black satin cropped basque and oyster-coloured tailored silk trousers.

Accessorising her party ensemble with a statement diamond choker and matching earrings, Rihanna channelled old Hollywood glamour with retro curls, a slick of pillar-box red lipstick and fluttering false eyelashes.

The pop superstar seemed intent on looking picture perfect for her evening out on the town, and was tended to by a troupe of make-up artists to ensure she was preened and pampered to perfection.

Rihanna treated her best pals to a sumptuous dinner, before the gang headed out to see in the new year at the 40/40 club owned by Jay-Z, located near Madison Square Park in lower Manhattan.

And it would appear Cara had a very good night indeed, with the 21-year-old model posting an Instagram snap on Wednesday morning of herself lying in bed.

Alongside the shot, she wrote: 'Last night was EPIC! Morning 2014 #ouch.'

Later in the evening, the girls headed out into the bright lights of New York, with Rihanna wrapping up in a cosy white fur coat that wouldn't have looked out of place on the likes of Snoop Dogg or Rick Ross.

But if the jacket wasn't outlandish enough, the star decided to wrap a white-jewelled encrusted headband with a veil to complete the look.

Underneath the chunky coat, the singer wore a shiny white suit with a black strapless bodice and teetered on towering pink heels.

Meanwhile, Cara wore a matching zip detail crop top and pencil skirt, but arrived with her favourite parka coat with a camouflage lining.

The pair headed to the 40/40 club owned by Jay-Z, which is located near Madison Square Park in lower Manhattan.

Rihanna was hosting the new year celebrations at the club, and clearly wanted all of the guests to dress up for the occasion.

A source told the Sun: 'Rihanna has had extra bottles of Armand de Brignac rosé champagne, costing £300 a time, shipped into New York especially the knees up.

'Her and Cara - and others including Rihanna's ex Drake - made sure to see 2014 arrive in some style.

'Their room was private to the rest of the club - and kitted out with snooker tables and giant TVs for her closest friends and family to enjoy. Rihanna never does things half-heartedly.'

'Fellaz, this is your night to dress like gentlemen! The ladies wanna be impressed!! Ladies, y'all already know what to do... #NYE #4040 #NYC,' she tweeted on Tuesday night.

Before they went out, Rihanna, Cara and their crew shared a video message on Instagram.

Ri Ri had spent Christmas in her home country of Barbados, where Delevingne also happened to be spending the festive season.

The 21-year-old supermodel shared a snap on Saturday night of her cuddling up to her Barbadian-born BFF as the pair beamed matching heavy-lidded smiles.

They found some time to hang out together on the Caribbean island before heading to New York to see in 2014.

Cara has previously praised her 'amazing' BFF, telling Grazia: 'She's so sweet. She's calling me a rockstar and I was like, 'But you're Rihanna! You're mental. You're amazing. I always take style advice from her.'

No Rita? The British model used to always be seen with Ora, but seems to be spending more time with Ri Ri lately

Such a pretty girl. Why in the world did she feel the need to mark up her body with all those tattoos? I could probably handle the rest, but that hand tattoos is the worst IMO.
