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

By MailOnline Reporter

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.

Accessories: The Diamonds hit maker carried a mini Louis Vuitton handbag as well as her phone underneath the coat

And a further $100,000 on the photograph of Elizabeth Taylor at the Eden Roc by Willy Rizzo, signed and numbered by the artist.  

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.
