Rihanna and A$AP Rocky Take the Streets of New York City in Style
Over the weekend, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky took to the streets of Bronx, New York, while filming an unnamed music video together. The couple has officially been dating since November. From the looks of these paparazzi photos on set, the powerful duo are more in love (and in style) than ever.

It may have been 80 degrees in New York this weekend, but that didn’t stop our favorite fashion-forward artists from serving hot looks on the street.
Rihanna wore tan pants and a copper corset, donning a long shearling coat over the entire outfit. She had her hair pulled back in a yellow silk headscarf, exposing a glimmering gold necklace and earrings underneath. A$AP Rocky was right by his girlfriend’s side in a stylish black bomber jacket and black jeans. He wore his signature bling with earrings and necklaces topped with a black trucker hat.
I’m not gon lie, I actually like him for her.

The couple was spotted atop a fire escape the very next day, presumably filming scenes for the music video. Rihanna was wearing a hot-pink fur coat and bright green heels. A$AP paired simple jeans and a white tank top with an outrageously cool green fur hat. Leave it to these two to make neon costumes look effortlessly cool.

Rihanna’s makeup brand Fenty Beauty and skincare brand Fenty Skin knew fans would be overcome with curiosity and jokingly tweeted to fans that even they don’t know the details yet.

While we don’t know what song the music video is for, it’s most likely a single from A$AP Rocky’s upcoming album, All Smiles. The “Fashion Killa” rapper chatted with GQ this May about the album’s inspirations, saying that Rihanna has been a great source of inspiration for his songs.

“I think it’s important to have somebody that you can bounce those creative juices and ideas off of,” A$AP Rocky stated in an interview for his GQ feature back in May. “It’s just a different point of view.”
While impatiently waiting for the release of Rihanna and A$AP’s new music video, you can re-watch the couple in their “Fashion Killa” video from 2013.
