New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde looked unrecognisable on Sunday as she went completely makeup free during a rare outing in Downtown Manhattan.
The Royals hitmaker, 27, flaunted her natural beauty as she stepped out in the pouring rain with her brand new platinum hairstyle.
Keeping her look low-key, the worldwide pop star pulled a pink cap down low over her bare face and swamped her frame with a khaki raincoat and loose black pants.
With a large canvas bag slung over one shoulder, the two-time Grammy winner, listened intently to music as she went about her day.
At one point, the award-winning musician was forced to unfurl her black umbrella, twisting her golden locks into two short pigtails.

Lorde debuted her dramatic transformation last month when she bleached her signature dark locks and snapped a picture with a fan on the subway.
For her laid-back outing, Lorde, whose real name is Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor, attempted to go incognito with her new look.
However, a fan quickly spotted her and asked for a picture, to which she sweetly agreed.

In September, the Kiwi singer shared a distressing open letter with her fans, revealing she was suffering from a personal ‘heartbreak’.
The performer shared a newsletter titled ‘How I’ve Been, Revised’ with subscribers, hinting at relationship troubles with her long-term boyfriend Justin Warren.
‘I’m different but the same. I ache all the time, I forget why and then remember. I’m not trying to hide the pain, I understand pain isn’t something to hide,’ she began.

The New Zealand native continued: ‘There’s actually great beauty in moving with it. But sometimes I’m sick of being with myself.’
Lorde then said she wished she could turn back the clock and she had stopped taking her medication.
‘I sit in the time machine and wait for it to move, but it hasn’t been invented yet. The little yellow pill I took every morning for thousands of mornings since I was 15, I stopped taking it 5 days ago. Gonna see how it goes.’
While her distressing letter did not explicitly mention relationship troubles with her music executive boyfriend Justin Warren, fans have been quick to speculate this is what she was alluding to.
