Rihanna, who rarely makes public appearances, startled fans when she went out with a whole new hairstyle and a new celebrity companion.

Rihanna was spotted posing with Kyle Richards after meeting the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star in an Aspen, Colorado shop.

The 35-year-old dazzled spectators in a pair of low-rise slouchy jeans, a cream longline coat over a grey sweatshirt, and a pair of denim-style boots.

To complete the ensemble, the Diamonds hitmaker added a bright blue belt and silver statement earrings.

The singer was accompanied by her boyfriend A$AP Rocky and their two sons, RZA and Riot. Rihanna also unveiled her new haircut for the occasion, with honey-blonde braids that reached her waist.

Rihanna is a recognized admirer of Bravo shows such as Real Housewives, and the surprising meeting between the stars took place in Kemo Sabe, which has appeared on the show several times.
