After Party "Juste Un Clou" [12/04]

Fresh from her recent holiday in St Barts, Beyonce Knowles wasted no time in getting back to business on her return to New York City.

The superstar's first stop was at her management's office in the Big Apple, where she brought baby daughter Blue Ivy along for the ride.

She kept her little bundle covered up, as ever, in an Aztec print blanket, which was carefully coordinated with her own neutral ensemble made up of nude cropped jeans and a matching baggy jumper.

Later on, Bey left her baby at home and hit the town with husband Jay-Z at the fashionable Cartier Juste un Clou after-party at the Skylight Studio in Manhattan.


The 30-year-old looked very relaxed as she watched events from her place on the VIP balcony, wearing the same outfit she'd been sporting for her business meetings earlier.

In between her mothering duties and partying, the singer also found the time to post a handwritten letter to Michelle Obama on her official website. In the heartfelt missive Bey praises the First Lady and says how proud she is to have Blue Ivy grow up in a world with Ms Obama in it.
