Vanessa Hudgens rose to fame as nerdy good girl Gabriella Montez on High School Musical.
But the 24-year-old has been keen to be a little more edgy in real life.
Vanessa did just that on Sunday, flashing skin in a tiny outfit while shopping in Studio City, California.

She rocked a boho-chic look on the day, pairing a black-and-white floral halter top over some denim shorts.
The crop top showed off her toned midriff and back while the shorts left plenty of bare leg on view.
Vanessa also sported some leather boots, a matching leather bag and a floppy purple sunhat to shade her eyes on the bright and sunny day.
Some eclectic bits of jewelry - including a silver pendant and several rings - rounded out the outfit.
