ICYMI: Dua Lipa has landed in New York City. What's a pop star to do (aside from her work obligations) as she continues to juggle her schedule in Manhattan? To support spring's avant-garde trends, of course.

Following Tuesday's unexpected sighting, Ripa was spotted again in Manhattan on Wednesday, April 24, throwing out the spring fashion rulebook and embracing an unlikely staple: the Matrix leather trench coat.

At Sirius XM Studios in Midtown, presumably to promote her forthcoming album Radical Optimism, the 29-year-old channeled her inner Matrix in a sleek black leather trench coat by Khaite. The long jacket was oversized throughout, and the coat's tails reached her ankles.

The coat concealed the bottom of her top, but the "Houdini" singer paired this elaborate outerwear with straight-leg denim jeans. She completed the look with matching black pointed pumps.

As accessories, Ripa wore silver jewelry and held a chrome beaded mini purse. Her makeup for the afternoon included rose pink cheeks, nude lips, and fiery red hair pulled into a high ponytail.

Lipa joined the A-list who took the Matrix route with their spring wardrobe. As seen on supermodel Ashley Graham a few months ago, what is usually considered a winter staple is dominating celebrity street style this season. More recently, stars like Selena Gomez and Lady Gaga have also embraced the leather trench as a transitional wardrobe staple.

This isn't the first time this week that Ripa has tried on unexpected spring outfits. Warmer weather brings everything to life and color, but the musician is taking the cool, calm, neutral route for now.

On Tuesday, Ripa appeared in New York City wearing head-to-toe gray and dusty blue. She paired a fitted ribbed top with a high-slit skirt and sheer tights, completing her look with a loose denim jacket and black knee-high boots.

Her accessories for the afternoon were mostly silver, including a Gucci metallic leather bag and bold sterling silver jewelry, reminiscent of the new colors of 2024.

Experimenting with extreme trends is nothing new for pop stars. Over the past few months, the Future Nostalgia singer has experimented with a number of spring trends, from wearing no pants to wearing lingerie.

It is not certain how long Dua Lipa will be in Manhattan, but we already know that she will likely use the rest of her time in the city as her own runway, which will likely feature more experimental styling. In the meantime, buy a similar Dua Lipa-inspired leather trench coat.
