Rita Ora knows first impressions matter.

On Monday, the British pop star, 32, was seen in New York City wearing a stylish, long-sleeve polka-dotted dress ahead of her upcoming appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.

The statement mini-dress was perfectly paired with black dress shoes and white knee-high tights that were covered with black polka dots. To accessorize the bold look, Ora wore large earrings, sunglasses, and multiple silver and black rings.

Ora wore her blonde locks in a sleek middle part with a neutral pink color lip gloss. She showcased another view of the ensemble in an Instagram post where she posed with a Poppi drink.

The stylish outing comes only days after the "You Only Love Me" singer celebrated her husband Taika Waititi's 48th birthday on the Spanish island of Ibiza.

"Only in Ibiza do you gather a group of such incredible people full of joy and laughter these are the only appropriate photos I could find!" she shared in an Instagram post that included photos from a party held in the Next Goal Wins filmmaker's honor. "Thank you to everyone who came you know who you all are! And @vasjmorgan for single handedly bringing us all together."

Along with the birthday celebration, Ora gushed about Waititi in an Instagram tribute where she recognized him as "the funnest smartest man I have ever come across in my life."

"You keep me together in moments I don’t think I can," she added. "Thank you for showing me what love really is. Here’s to many more moments of me stealing your jokes and telling them 10x louder so people think I’m the funny one. I LOVE YOU 🥹🥰."

The couple were first linked in April 2021 and made their red carpet debut later that August at the Los Angeles premiere of The Suicide Squad. In August 2022, a source confirmed to PEOPLE that Ora and Waititi tied the knot in a "very small" ceremony.

Ora spoke out about their wedding during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show in February, in which she explained that she and Waititi were longtime friends before deciding to take their relationship to the next level.

Feels great!" she said. "He's so, so great. We're friends, and I mean, we met long before we decided to ruin everything. We were friends for six years."
