Mariah Carey put on a show-stopping performance in the style department as she prepared to rehearse her upcoming show at Madison Square Garden.
The 54-year-old Queen of Christmas hit a high fashion note in a sexy LBD and voluminous black jacket as she arrived at a studio to rehearse her upcoming show on Friday.
Mariah – who recently released a new music video for All I Want for Christmas Is You – donned her toned limbs in sheer black tights and leg warmers as she walked down the street in leather ankle boots.
She put her brunette hair up in a simple ponytail and hid her eyes behind large square sunglasses.
The style icon accessorized the look with a glittering necklace and her silver rings.

Merry Christmas everyone! is Carey's ongoing twelfth concert tour.
It started on November 15, 2023 in Highland, California, and will conclude after 16 dates on December 17, 2023 at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Mariah's winter hit All I Want For Christmas has shown remarkable staying power, topping the Hot 100 singles chart every holiday season since 2019, spending a total of twelve weeks at number one.
Only two other Carey songs have been at number one for over ten weeks.
Her other long-lasting hits include 2005's We Belong Together and her Boyz II Men collaboration One Sweet Day.
That 1996 single spent sixteen weeks at number one – a record at the time – while We Belong Together spent fourteen weeks at number one.
During an appearance on ITV's This Morning, Mariah admitted she never expected All I Want For Christmas Is You to become the mega-hit it is today.
'No, I didn't (expect) that and normally when people ask me something of the 'did you know' type I pretty much say, 'Yes, I had an idea or I knew', but with this I did not. know.

“It was the first Christmas song I'd ever written and I just wanted it to be real to me. To my little girls' selves… what are the things I think about Christmas, what did I want, what did I wish for?'
She continued, “When I first wrote it, I wanted it to be timeless. I didn't want it to be something that felt like a specific year; I wanted it to be something I could have heard as a little kid.
“I don't know which version of Rudolph The Rednosed Reindeer I heard as a kid, or Walking in a Winter Wonderland, but I just know I loved those songs.
“So I didn't think, 'oh my song is going to be as big as those songs,' I thought, 'Let me do something that makes me feel like I'm listening to a classic.'
