Beyoncé is taking the reins and galloping into new territory with her Valentine's Day style, and it seems she's just getting started.
The 42-year-old music icon, fresh from announcing her first country album, dazzled fans with not one, but two stunning ensembles that paid homage to her Southern roots.
For a romantic evening out with her husband, Jay-Z, at Claud in the East Village, Beyoncé channeled a sultry cowgirl vibe.
She unveiled her fierce look on her website, donning a custom red Stetson that set the tone for a bold, monochromatic Marc Jacobs outfit.

The ensemble was tied together with a form-fitting red mock-neck top, matching heels, and lipstick that spoke volumes about her fearless fashion sense.

But the Grammy-winning 16 Carriages artist didn't stop there. Taking to Instagram, Beyoncé wished her followers a Happy Valentine's Day, "sending lots of love," in a sheer black tulle Dolce & Gabbana dress that left little to the imagination.
The see-through garment, complete with lace cups and a corset-style top with exposed boning, was tastefully paired with a black thong and thigh-high stockings.
Accentuating her waist was a leather Dolce & Gabbana belt, and she completed the ensemble with a black tulle veil, gloves, and a cowboy hat perched atop her glamorous curls.
These looks are not just fashion statements but also clever teases of her upcoming musical venture, part two of her Renaissance project.

Her white Stetson and studded Louis Vuitton shorts suit at the Grammys and the plunging black Dolce & Gabbana minidress she donned for the Super Bowl—complete with a turquoise bolo tie necklace—were all part of the prelude to her latest artistic era.
