The wife of Justin Bieber had her brunette locks styled up in a messy bun with wavy strands dangling at the front to frame her impeccably made-up face.
She wore a barely buttoned white crop top and diamond encrusted necklaces, and later, as the temperature began to drop, she covered up with a loose-fitting black shirt.
Justin opted for a more minimalist look with a white shirt, a matching zip-up hoodie and black sunglasses.
He also wore small gold earrings and a gold luxury wristwatch.
The couple were coming off a scare earlier in the weekend. On Friday, Justin performed a show in West Hollywood, and gunfire erupted later in the evening outside the afterparty he threw nearby.
Three people were shot, including rapper Kodak Black, and another person was injured, but none appeared to have life-threatening injuries.

Following his online feuding with his estranged wife Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend Pete Davidson, Kanye West cooled down with a trip to the Super Bowl with his two eldest children and the rappers Tyga and YG.
The Monster rapper covered his face completely with a black balaclava, which matched his black hoodie, jeans and gloves, though he removed his mask later in the game
Sitting to Kanye left was his daughter North, eight, and his son Saint, six, though his daughter Chicago, four, and son Psalm, two, appeared to have stayed home. Antonio Brown took in the game on the rapper’s right.
At one point, the masked rapper leaned his head affectionately against his daughter as he tried to hear her over the din of the crowd.
North wore a black jersey and a cool set of red-tinted box braids, while Saint also had braids and matched her in black.
Kanye, who has been fighting online with his ex’s boyfriend, picked an odd choice of Super Bowl companions, as Tyga previously dated Kylie Jenner, who now shares two children with Kanye’s friend Travis Scott.

Another rapper who got drawn into Kanye’s feud with Pete Davidson was his one-time nemesis Drake, who looked somber as he watched the game from luxury seats.
The Flashing Lights rapper posted a poorly photoshopped version of the post for Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War, but he inserted his face over Captain America’s and included Drake as his side kick for a showdown against Pete (who was pasted over Iron Man) and Kim.
Drake rocked a simple gray hoodie while sporting a thick beard.
