Rihanna changes her style and embraces feminine florals to match her new hairstyle

It is Rihanna as you have never seen her before - dressed sweetly and covered up.

Known as a style chameleon, the 26-year-old usually switches between high fashion, to androgynous street clothes to ensembles that barely count as clothes, but on Friday the pop star decided to really change things up.

Taking inspiration from her new ink pixie 'do, the Pour It Up singer donned a very lady-like floral dress in West Hollywood, California.

The style maven stepped out in the trendy Melrose Avenue area looking as if spring had sprung in her wardrobe.

For her day of shopping, the star donned a pale blue dress with yellow and pink roses.

The short dress, which featured a crew neck top with cap sleeves and a circle skirt, showed off the Barbadian beauty's toned legs.

While the feminine and seemingly a diversion from her usual street chic style, the frock was by famed street label Joyrich.

Rihanna is a big fan of the label - which is located on Melrose -- and has been spotted wearing the brand's signature bucket hat of late.

However, on Friday the singer decided not to stop in at the store, perhaps because she already has an assortment of their latest looks, and instead went to their label's sister store Wild Style.

But of course Rihanna could not just wear a floral dress like the rest of the world, so gave the look an edge by wearing it with black trainers.

The now pink haired star accessorised her look with a leather backpack, vintage black and white sunglasses and layers of necklaces including a R pendant on a chain.

Rihanna debuted her new pink look on Thursday, saying she had taken the wig from Nicki Minaj.

Posting on Instagram, the star said: 'We raided Nicki's wig closet for the summer! Bad gals just wanna have fun.'

Clearly loving the new shade, Rihanna has also had her stiletto shaped nails painted a soft pink to match.

While only new, the pink may be here to stay for a while with Rihanna changing her Twitter profile picture to a cartoon drawing of herself with pink hair.
