Lily Collins bares her taut midriff in a plunging striped tank top and cropped jeans as she goes on solo shopping spree

While she was born in the leafy English county of Surrey, Lily Collins has spent most of her life in Los Angeles, where she's enjoyed an active, outdoorsy lifestyle.

And evidence of the 26-year-old actress' healthy regime was on full display on Sunday, when she bared her midriff in a striped plunging tank top during a shopping spree in the Californian city.

The pretty brunette teamed her floaty crop top with a pair of cuffed boyfriend jeans, which complemented her svelte legs, while she kept her feet comfortable in a pair of black flat sandals.

With a pair of sunglasses perched atop her immaculately styled pixie cut, the star walked with a light shirt tied around her waist while she carried a coveted Givenchy Lucrezia tote.

Opting to forgo jewellery, Lily let her natural beauty shine through as she stepped out wearing minimal make-up.

Earlier in the day, she shared a snapshot of herself standing on the bark of a large tree during a hike, alongside the caption: 'A girl and her trees. Climbing up to start this week on a high note...'

On Friday, Lily treated herself to a luxury shopping trip at Barneys New York in Beverly Hills, before going home to bake cupcakes for her pals.

She looked gorgeous in a casual outfit, showcasing her love of the Jimi Hendrix Experience with a black jumper that had 'Voodoo Child' splashed across it in colourful lettering.

As the daughter of Phil Collins, it's hardly a surprise that Lily is a big music fan.

The Love, Rosie star also sported black tapered trousers, tan sandals with a chunky black heel and a two-tone black and white cross-body bag with tan strap.

Lily wore natural make-up, highlighting her strong eyebrows and adding a slick of dark lipstick, and wore a pair of black retro sunglasses atop her crop of chestnut brown hair.

Before heading inside the store - which is very popular with LA based celebrities - the brunette was seen chatting to a male friend.

Meanwhile, Lily recently became an ambassador of Bystander Revolution to help in the fight against bullying, and was in Seattle on Thursday at an event to celebrate 15,000 students eager to make a positive impact in the world.

'Bystander Revolution's mission and the work they've done over the past year is so inspiring and close to my heart,' Lily, who gave a speech and led We Day Seattle's segment on Social Empowerment.

'Through open communication, inclusion, and kindness we all have the ability to change the culture and stop bullying from being the norm. I'm so excited to spread Bystander Revolution's message at We Day about how the smallest simplest acts can have the biggest, most memorable impact.'
