Feeling the fashion high! Is that a Cannabis-leaf skirt you're wearing Kimberley Walsh?
By HANNA FLINT
She's always been pretty clean cut, but Kimberley Walsh pushed the fashion boundaries in what seems to be a Cannabis leaf-print skirt on Wednesday.
The former Girls Aloud star wore the Marijuana-like design for an appearance on Alan Carr's Chatty Man on Wednesday night.
Her bold fashion choice does make a statement, considering she publicly apologised in 2006 for a picture showing her smoking a spliff at a party the year earlier.

At the time, Kimberly said she was deeply sorry, but told The Times, 'it hardly makes me Pete Doherty.'
Very true, as the Babyshamble's frontman probably wouldn't wear that skirt.
Departing the show's TV studios, Kimberley, 31, made sure all the focus was on her plant-inspired bottom half with simply a black jacket, top and pumps to make up the rest of her outfit.

Smoky: The singer keeps her make-up look simple with just a slight coral lip colour to go with her grey eyeshadow
She did add a little flash of colour through the red polish of her nails, but kept the rest of her beauty look simple with a smokey eye and a slight coral lipstick.
It seemed Kimberley was one of only two female guest on the show which enjoyed a Grand National theme.
As well as Abby Clancy, the singer joined Rylan Clark, Jonathan Ross, James Corden, The Last Leg presenter Alex Brooker, James Nesbitt and Paddy McGuiness.

And understandably, Kimberley left the studios in good spirits, tweeting to her fans about the evening:
'Hilarious filming @chattyman #GrandNational with @RylanClark @wossy @JKCorden @alex_brooker @OfficialClancy James Nesbitt & Paddy McGuinness'.
Apparently, filming of Alan Carr's Grand National Specstacular proved to be rather chaotic, but according to the presenter's Twitter feed, Kimberley was calm and laid back throughout:
'Mayhem filming Alan's #GrandNational #Specstacular - but here's cool as a cucumber - @KimberleyJWalsh.'

Now that Girls Aloud have officially split up for good, following the end of their Ten Reunion Tour, Kimberley can now focus on her own career pursuits after the release of her first solo album.
But she's also taken a fancy to the airwaves through not just her songs but as a presenter.
Kimberley will be joining Jamie Theakston on Friday 5th April for Heart FM's breakfast show while his co-presenter Emma Bunton is away.
