It was back to earth with a stylish bump on Tuesday for Ciara, as she stepped out the day after attending the Met Gala with a spring in her step.

The stunning singer emerged on the streets of New York City after having lunch at Barney's, and she didn't look a touch fatigued despite her partying antics the night before.

The 30-year-old looked fresh as a daisy while flaunting her incredible pins in a pale peachy-nude dress for her daytime outing.

The thigh-grazing shift dress allowed her to flash her silky thighs, while a pair of pale dove grey suede heeled boots sat just above her knees, adding a touch of sex appeal to the otherwise sweet look.

Basking in the early summer weather, Ciara looked ready for the forthcoming season, as she went without a jacket and sported a pair of oversized shades.

Her tinted blonde locks were worn loose, straight and flowing around her shoulders, framing her face.

It was back to normal for the Goodies hitmaker after sporting a shiny silver hairstyle at the Met Gala on Monday night, which appears to have been a very canny wig, or a clever short-term dye.

She flashed her beaming white-toothed smile as she left the New York department store to get into her car, no doubt heading for a well-earned rest after the festivities on Monday evening at the biggest fashion event of the year.

Ciara had certainly made sure to stand out from the crowd as she made her grand entrance to the Met Gala, which is officially called The Costume Institute Gala 2016 and held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

It featured an intricate sparkling design over nude fabric for a flirty touch. 

The songbird appeared to be sporting a wig, which was curled and pinned to resemble a flapper hair 'do.

As for her complexion, it was polished off with an edgy winged coat of black eyeshadow and bronzed cheeks.

Ciara's ensemble was finished off with a pair of stilettos in a coordinating shade of bronze.

The hit-maker did not appear to be joined by her fiancé, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.

Earlier that day, Ciara gave her Instagram fans a sneak peek at her futuristic hair 'do by sharing a snap of herself clad in a bathrobe as she crouched against a door, putting her curled locks and spectacular engagement ring on show.

'Pre #metgala #SilverMetalHair,' she captioned the snap. 

The Met Gala was hosted this year by Taylor Swift as well as Editor of American Vogue Anna Wintour, Idris Elba, and Jonathan Ive, chief design officer of Apple.

Wintour took over as chairwoman of the gala in 1999.

Girls' night: The star seemed in great spirits as she held hands with fellow singer Jennifer Hudson while leaving the star-studded fashion extravaganza 

Since then, she has transformed what was once a local fundraiser into one of the world's most elite costume parties that ranks as a celeb magnet only equaled by the Academy Awards red carpet - with A-listers hungry for a chance to be the muse of a fashion designer. 

The theme for this year's ball was Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology, which seeks to prove that the machine is an 'equal protagonist' to the hand in creating the best fashions of our recent past, our present and our future.

Regular folks who aren't famous enough to score an invite to the gala can simply come see the exhibit beginning May 5.
