Brunette beauty: Rihanna was spotted heading to dinner at celeb-favourite Nobu in New York City on Saturday night

The B**** Better Have My Money hitmaker added to the 𝑠e𝑥y librarian look with a red and white houndstooth-patterned coat.

Rihanna flashed a bit of her toned torso with a white crop top with high-waisted, flared navy pinstriped trousers and  black trainers.

Along with the black retro-styled specs she accessorised with a small black leather designer bag and large, gold hooped earrings.

The We Found Love singer had her long brunette locks put up in a messy updo as she sported natural, complimentary make-up on her face highlighted by a swipe of shiny pink lip.

Not seen on the outing was her rumoured love-interest Travis Scott as the two partied separately in The Big Apple on New Year’s Eve.

The duo hung out together just before Christmas at Hollywood club Project Los Angeles but were forced to evacuate the venue, along with other revelers, after gun shots were fired outside.

TMZ reported that a fight broke out between a few guys outside the club and someone pulled out a gun and fired it.

Meanwhile, Riri has yet to confirm a release date for her next album but shared a new teaser promo from ANTi on Friday which sees her naked in a bath tub.

Heading out: No doubt she enjoyed her night on the town in The Big Apple

The star hasn’t released an album since 2012’s Unapologetic but has released tracks FourFiveSeconds, American Oxygen and B**** Better Have My Money from the upcoming record.

Earlier this month, musician Sia – who wrote RiRi’s hit Diamonds – revealed that she’s contributed tracks to the new project, claiming it was still unfinished.

‘The other night she came over and listened to half of 25 songs I played her because she’s still looking for songs for her new album,’ she told BBC.

‘She was there to listen to songs and see if there was anything that she was into. It was a business meeting for sure. She took four but I don’t know if they’ll end up [on the album].’
