Wigging out! Rihanna rocks new dreadlocks as she steps out in edgy ensemble for dinner in NYC

She honored the late Bob Marley while debuting her new dreadlocks just one day earlier on Instagram.

But on Tuesday Rihanna paid homage to another lost entertainer as she donned a vintage Tupac Shakur tee.

Go hell for leather like Rihanna in Balenciaga

Rihanna likes to mix things up and she certainly did that here with the addition of her new dreadlocks!

The R&B hitmaker looked a little bit too cool for school here in her Run DMC tee, leggings and off shoulder leather jacket.

Her style is always on fleek and she has the fashion world at her feet, so whenever Rihanna opts for an everyday staple such as a leather jacket, we pay attention to who it’s by.

It's by Balenciaga and we already knew their leather outerwear was pretty great but now Rihanna is wearing it you just know it is worth coveting.

But there’s no need to lust after it if it’s available to buy online, right? Simply click through to the right to make it yours from Balenciaga.

There aren't many off-shoulder alternatives, but Faith Connexion do offer one up. Otherwise, bag a belted biker and wear it low to get the look!

The Work hit-maker enjoyed an evening out at SoHo's hot spot Mercer Kitchen for a gathering with some friends. 

The Barbadian beauty paired the California Love hit-maker's shirt with form-fitting dark pants and matching sneakers.

She rounded out her street chic look with a forest green designer leather handbag and diamond encrusted ankh necklace.
