Cardi B took the 2022 American Music Awards stage tonight. The rapper performed “Tomorrow 2” with rising superstar GloRilla, in a head-to-toe monochromatic look.

Wearing all blue, Cardi B donned a leather corseted bodice with matching cargo pants and textured gloves with bold pockets that rose up to her elbows. Her longtime stylist Kollin Carter is responsible for her looks, and the look from this performance can be added to the list.

Staying true to her style, she wore extra long nails in a contrasting color for an extra pop. She also remained consistent with the old-school hip-hop theme, wearing a classic 90’s hairstyle made up of a twisted petal waterfall and a dramatic swoop styled by celebrity hairstylist Tokyo Stylez.

As for shoes, the “Up” singer’s block heel boots created the perfect illusion as they seamlessly coordinated with the cargo pants. Block heels are more than a summer trend since it’s the most practical out of all of the styles. Cardi is known to throw on a pair of sky-high heels, but this performance called for something more comfortable as she danced around on stage to her hit song.
