Fun in the sun: Vanessa Hudgens enjoys a coffee and a walk down the Venice Boardwalk with a male friend yesterdayWe are used to seeing her in various black or dark coloured casual outfits.
But Sucker Punch star Vanessa Hudgens added a dash of colour to her wardrobe yesterday as she spent time by the beach.
The 22-year-old beauty donned a pair of fluorescent pink high waisted shorts with a funky striped pattern which looked very sixties inspired.
Clutching a large coffee, the actress appeared to be enjoying the warm Californian sunshine as she laughed and chatted with her mystery companion on their walk through the trendy beach-side community of Venice.
Vanessa has had a busy couple of weeks on the promotional tour for her new film Beastly - a modern day interpretation of the Disney classic Beauty and The Beast.
After the Los Angeles première she jetted to New York for the East coast release.
Swinging sixties: The Sucker Punch star rocked a bright pair of stripy high waisted pink shortsWhile there she made a series of TV appearances including Live With Regis And Kelly, on which she showed off her new butterfly neck tattoo.
She then headed to Las Vegas this past weekend to celebrate her friend and fellow actress, Brittany Snow's 25th birthday.
The girls joined a group of their friends at a party in Brittany's honour at Pure Nightclub in the Caesar's Palace Hotel and Casino.
Hopefully Vanessa enjoyed her relaxing day at the beach because thinks are likely to get busy again for the star with the release of yet another of her films, Sucker Punch, on March 25.
The action fantasy thriller, which she shot last year, is based on a comic book with an all female lead cast.
The movie, directed by Zack Snyder, is set in the Fifties and is about a little girl, Babydoll, who is held captive by her evil stepfather.
