She turns 26 in just three days and it seems that Rihanna is trying out a new, more mature style as she approaches the tail end of her 20s.
On Monday, the Diamonds singer treated herself to a little pre-birthday shopping spree at upmarket Beverly Hills boutique Moncler, which specialises in designer winter coats.
As temperatures continue to rise in Los Angeles, the star was dressed appropriately in a simple midi-length white cotton dress, which showed off her shapely curves nicely.
Huge matching gold link bangles adorned each wrist, while a Jeremy Scott x Melody Ehsani Arabic Nameplate Necklace and lots of rings completed her glitzy look.
But it wasn't all serious, with fun ice-cream cone earrings revealing her still playful side.
The songstress was noticeably fresh-faced, wearing just a small amount of complexion-enhancing make-up and winged eyeliner for the excursion,
while her hair was worn in her current black long bob style complete with heavy fringe.
Inkings on her shoulder, ankle and her recently upgraded Maori hand design were impossible to miss - especially the latter, which was enhanced by a bubblegum pink manicure.
The 25-year-old officially kicked off her birthday celebrations with a trip to one of her favourite Italian restaurants, Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, on Sunday night.
Posting several photos of her elaborate outfit - which consisted of a tiny black playsuit worn under a long eye-catching patterned coat - to her Instagram account, she tagged them, 'Birthday i$h beginz ... #DearFebruaRIH.'
RiRi appeared to be in good spirits during both outings, which could have something to do with the fact that it's been reported that the star has won a multimillion-dollar settlement after she nearly went broke following bad advice from her accountant.
The star sued accountant Peter Gounis and the firm Berdon LLP, claiming they advised her to buy a $7 million house in Southern California in 2009 despite the fact she was running low on funds.
Rihanna's lawyer, Edward Estrada, wrote: 'The defendants advised Ms. Fenty by e-mail that purchasing a home in Los Angeles "would be a good investment" despite knowing Ms. Fenty was experiencing financial difficulties.'
Page Six also reports Rihanna lost an alleged $9 million, leaving her with just $2 million at the end
of 2009.
Lawyers acting for the star claimed Gounis was aware that the house in question was rotting from water and mould damage.
The SOS singer was forced to spend more than $1 million on repairs before selling it at a nearly
$2 million loss.
Rihanna fired the accountants and sued them for $35 million in 2012, while the firm has now reportedly offered the singer a settlement of more than $10 million, with papers due to be signed
this week.
