Taylor Swift stripped back her high profile look on Monday, plumping instead for a denim pinafore dress and a low-key hairstyle.

Shedding her sleek and glossy image, the blonde beauty seemed to revert to unkempt curls like her emerging pop act days.

The 26-year-old similarly went minimal on the beauty front for a day out near her Tribeca home in New York City, alone.

The blonde showed off her long, lean legs in a cute denim mini dress in the style of overalls.

Her blonde tresses appeared to have a funky wave but she pinned them back in a low ponytail for the outing.

It seems a workout session was a welcome distraction for Taylor on Monday in NYC as she went about her day being apart from her new love Tom Hiddleston.

Taylor, 26, looked gorgeous in some patterned leggings and a slouchy off-the-shoulder T-shirt.

Completing her after workout attire was a pink top and floral patterned sneakers.

Earlier at that day she flashed a graphic print sports bra underneath her top and added some colour with orange Nike trainers.

Some classic black shades completed her look.
