For her birthday photoshoot, Blige modeled a custom coat and fedora paired with matching brown Timberland boots. A matching belt held her high-waist jeans in place while a black low-cut top completed the queen's ensemble.

The "Umbrella Academy" star has also found the time to indulge in a makeup-free beach day with pals in Miami, Florida.

Blige wore one of her favorite hair colors – blond – and rocked giant square earrings as she strolled confidently on the street in her photoshoot. She looked every inch the birthday girl with a don't-mess-with-me attitude.
