Beyoncé made a surprise appearance Sunday night at her husband Jay-Z's "Extra Innings" concert at Yankee Stadium, opting for an ensemble that paid homage to her early 2000s fashion.
For the performance of their 2013 hit "Drunk In Love," Queen Bey wore a pair of crystal-covered Jimmy Choo x Timberland heeled boots. The footwear choice was a clear nod to the iconic "'03 Bonnie & Clyde" music video, in which Beyoncé famously wore Manolo Blahnik Timberlands, a detail referenced in Jay-Z's lyrics: "Manolo Blahnik Timbs, Aviator lens."
This latest ensemble featured a sparkling update to the classic boot style, with both the boots and matching booty shorts adorned in Swarovski crystals. She paired the sparkling attire with a Yankees top.
The collaboration between Jimmy Choo and Timberland, which served as the inspiration for the boots, draws from a shared connection to New York City. The brands have cited the city as a significant inspiration for their joint collections.
Jay-Z's concert series at Yankee Stadium marked a celebration of his 30-year career and featured a lineup of surprise guests, including his daughter Blue Ivy, Rihanna, Teyana Taylor, and Usher. The New York theme was central to the weekend's events.
