Rihanna dresses up her sweatpants and snow jacket with some white heels as she heads to French eatery Pastis in NYC
Rihanna was spotted out and about in New York City on Friday evening.
The entrepreneur was seen taking a solo walk after catching up with a group of her friends at the Parisian-style bistro, Pastis.
Rihanna, 33, wore a sizable blue-and-black snow jacket on top of a matching blue blazer to keep herself warm in the frigid winter temperatures.
Stepping out: On Friday evening, Rihanna was spotted for the first time since LVMH announced that it had parted ways with her Fenty brand
She paired her top with a loose-fitting pair of sweatpants, which she contrasted with a set of white high-heeled shoes.
The songwriter carried a small bag with her during her outing and tied her beautiful black hair back.
Rihanna’s outing comes just under a month after the luxury goods corporation LVMH announced that it had ceased production on her Fenty line.

The songwriter founded the brand in 2017 and officially began offering products two years later.
Fenty is the newest line under LVMH to produce clothing and footwear in over twenty years; the brand was highly successful upon its initial launch.
Rihanna went on to found multiple other businesses featuring the Fenty name, including the wildly popular Fenty x Savage lingerie line.
The hitmaker was often featured in the clothing brand’s promotional materials.

Last month, however, it was announced that production of all Fenty products would be halted; the singer’s other lines would not be affected by this decision.
A representative for LVMH issued a statement to Women’s Wear Daily and noted that the circumstances of the global pandemic had made production difficult and that no more products from the brand would be offered in the near future.
The statement read, ‘Rihanna and LVMH have jointly made the decision to put on hold the ready-to-wear activity, based in Europe, pending better conditions.’
The publication also reported that private equity company L Catterton was investing in the Fenty X Savage line, signaling that the songwriter would not be leaving the fashion industry anytime soon.

Apart from dealing with her various fashion ventures, the Only Girl (In The World) has recently been spending time with fellow musician ASAP Rocky, who was seen arriving at JFK Airport in NYC on Friday.
The 32-year-old rapper was dressed in a striped t-shirt featuring deep blue lines at the bottom of his sleeves and torso.
He also wore a red-and-blue windbreaker and a baseball cap; he eventually removed both articles of clothing.
The Sundress songwriter tied off his outfit with a pair of ripped blue jeans and a set of Adidas Samba sneakers; he wore a facial covering to keep himself protected from COVID-19.

The now-couple maintained a close friendship in the early stages of the rapper’s career, and he served as Rihanna’s opening act for part of her 2013 Diamonds World Tour.
In January of 2020, the Diamonds singer broke up with her boyfriend of three years, Hassan Jameel, and subsequently began spending more time with the ASAP Forever songwriter.
After months of speculation, an insider confirmed to People that the musicians were officially dating.
Neither Rihanna nor ASAP Rocky have commented on the nature of their relationship as of yet.
