Harry Styles continued to show off his new facial hair look as he picked up an iced matcha in Mayfair, London, on Wednesday afternoon.
The singer, 31, once again sported his new thick moustache as he headed out and about in the city after first showing off his dramatic look last week.
Harry cut a casual figure in a blue jacket which he teamed with a pair of black wide leg trousers, while he slung a large blue tote bag over his shoulder.
The former One Direction star turned heads as he channelled Michael Jackson in a pair of white socks and £945 YSL loafers – a look the Thriller hitmaker made famous.
The Watermelon Sugar hitmaker shielded his eyes from the sun behind a pair of sunglasses and wore his short brunette locks spiked up.
Harry appeared to be in good spirits as he looked up from his phone to wave to fans he passed in the street.

The Don’t Worry Darling actor, who has famously shunned wireless headphones in favour of the older wired option, strolled the streets while listening to music.
Harry has come under mounting pressure to give details about the hotly-anticipated release of his fourth studio album, dubbed HS4 by fans.
In March last year, it was reported that Harry was back in the studio working on new music for the album, but in the 12 months since, there have been little to no updates.
Fans will no doubt be hoping that the Grammy-Award winning artist is avidly listening to samples of his own music as they continue to wait for his new material.
Harry confirmed to Rolling Stone magazine in October 2022 that he had already started work on HS4 in the way of establishing early ideas.
But it has been more than three years since the release of Harry’s House, which included No.1 single As It Was, and there is no evidence of a fourth album as yet.
Over the past year, Harry has been fuelling collaboration rumours by hanging out with big names in the industry, including Olivia Dean, Fred Again and Florence Welch.
Prior to several sightings of Harry in London this week, the former One Direction star had largely disappeared from the spotlight.

It makes it seem more likely that he has immersed himself in completing his fourth album, as this is something he has done before.
There have been several points over the past year when Harry’s fans were so convinced that the album was about to drop that HS4 AT MIDNIGHT would trend.
Though there has been no release yet, it’s good news for Harry’s fanbase, as the star has never gone more than three consecutive years without releasing a record.
Harry released his self-titled debut album in May 2017, before subsequent releases Fine Line (December 2019) and Harry’s House (May 2022).
In March last year, Harry was spotted stepping inside Rak music studios in St John’s Wood near London’s Regent’s Park.
The studios were founded in in 1976 by English record producer Mickie Most – who was known for his hits with the Animals, Jeff Beck, Donovan, Suzi Quatro and Kim Wilde, among others. He was also a recording artist, record label boss and TV producer.
After Mickie died in 2003 aged 64, his daughter Natalie Hayes took over the studios helping it to win studio of the year in 2014, 2015 and 2017.
In recent years, the studios have been home to record makers such as Ed Sheeran, 33, Adele, 35, Sir Rod Stewart, 79, and David Bowie, who died aged 69 in 2016.
Made up of four fully equipped studios, recording artists are also able to stay overnight in either of the two accommodations.

No stranger to the illustrious studios, it’s known Harry recorded his 2019 hit Adore You there.
Close friend and ex-One Directon bandmate Niall Horan, 30, recorded his 2017 track Fool’s Gold there too.
Having just got off tour, the star has been quick to return to the studio, with many thinking he would have opted for a long break before getting back to work.
Whilst on stage in New Zealand in 2023, he spoke about the songwriting process and teased: ‘We’re almost at the end of the fruit bowl. Come album four, who knows? No citrus is safe,’ in reference to his hit Watermelon Sugar.
Sources have claimed the tracks so far are some of the most poignant and most revealing songs they’ve heard from Harry.
