Beyoncé has remained quiet recently after receiving an incredible eight nominations for the 2023 Grammy Awards. However, Beyoncé and Jay-Z went out on a date this weekend to Giorgio Baldi, the Santa Monica Italian restaurant frequented by Rihanna, Angelina Jolie, and, of course, the Carters.
While holding hands in a rare display of PDA, paparazzi snapped pictures of the pair. A navy blue crewneck from the Whitney Museum and a coordinating pleated skirts were worn by the “Break My Soul” vocalist, who personified tenniscore in her attire. Stunning tie-up stilettos from Femme LA and a Louis Vuitton monogram purse finished off her ensemble. The rapper, meanwhile, looked dapper in an all-black ensemble consisting of a T-shirt, a duster coat, pants, and a beanie. He completed the look with a pair of white Air Force 1.
The best thing about this monochromatic ensemble is how Queen Bey contrasts the preppy piece with a screen-printed shirt from one of America’s best and most iconic institutions, which is more streetwear-oriented. The ratio of high to low is ideal.
Fans who paid close attention observed the celebrity was not just sporting any Whitney merchandise. The shirt is a unique, difficult-to-find item with an Andy Warhol skull artwork from 1976 on it. The same t-shirt was seen on Jay-Z in an earlier photo, according to an online user.
