Debuting her new look on social media, the Like A Virgin singer could be partially seen in heavy mascara with red lipstick, while taking pride of place is her latest on-trend accessory.

The nose piercing may be all the rage in fashion circles at the moment, but in her own typical style, Madonna has taken the look to a whole new level with a gold septum ring that features the letter 'M', as well as a what appears to be a pearl.

Captioning the post, she wrote: 'You Can't Mess with this lucky Star ❤#b***immadonna #iconic #rebelhearttour.'

Copycat! The Material Girl hitmaker may have been inspired by daughter Lourdes Leon, 18, who was seen strolling around New York with silver hair, gold hooped earrings and a matching septum piercing in June

Oh mama! Madonna looked as though she had raided Lourdes' wardrobe as she rocked a rather youthful ensemble at the Met Gala afterparty in New York City in May

Make like Lourdes and go for mesh in Moschino

Lourdes is a 'Material Girl' just like her mama. All she wants to do is 'Express Herself' in '4 Minutes,' 'Like a Virgin' in 'Ghost Town.'

That paragraph doesn't make the slightest bit of sense, but we managed to incorporate Madonna's lyrics in, and that's all that counts!

Lourdes and Madonna both stepped out looking trendy. While Madonna rocked a money sign bomber jacket, mesh tights and Giuseppe Zanotti sneakers, Lourdes chose a mesh Moschino dress and some Alexander McQueen boots.

Her Moschino mesh dress can be yours for $124 at Luisaviaroma.com BUT we love options, so we found some other black mesh picks for you below..in case you weren't ready to bare all in the Moschino dress!

Popular with the likes of Rihanna and FKA Twigs, Madge's new piercing certainly matches the latest youthful sound she has captured on single, B*** I'm Madonna. 

But while she may be accused of borrowing style tips from the young pretenders to her regal music title, Madonna may have taken inspiration from closer to home.

Her 18-year-old daughter Lourdes Leon debuted a new image in June, as she was seen strolling around New York with silver hair, gold hooped earrings and a matching septum piercing.

The teenager who has taken to switching her style up may have actually beaten her mother to the punch in this style trend.

While Madonna's latest body jewelry is sure to outrage a fair few of her critics, it is not known whether the piercing is real or actually a 'clip-on'.

The singer, who has faced a barrage from nay-sayers over the appropriateness of her love of street wear, provocative dancing and electro-pop recently defended her lifestyle choices.

Speaking to ET Online in an interview in March, she blasted: 'I am acting my age. This is me, this is how I wanna be. I can do what I want, OK? ... There's no rules, and people should just leave me alone.' 

Fans will be able to see Madge and her new style on her international tour from September - the Rebel Heart tour starts in Vancouver in September and is currently set to finish in Australia in March 2016.
