She's got her mama's legs! Melanie Griffith's daughter Dakota Johnson flashes her gams in NYC 

Dakota Johnson made out nicely.

Not only did the 26-year-old movie star get her 66-year-old dad Don Johnson's attractive facial features, she also inherited her 59-year-old mother Melanie Griffith's knockout legs.

On Friday the Fifty Shades Of Grey star put her limbs on display while wearing a short black dress in New York City.

The star looked to be in deep conversation as she stood against a staircase outside a brownstone in Manhattan.

Her black dress came above the knees and was short sleeved. 

Johnson also had on black slides with a two inch heel.

On Thursday Dakota also had on a black dress, only that one hid her legs. 

The actress exuded effortless chic while shopping with a friend in the Big Apple's SoHo district.

The screen star sported a loose-fitting black dress, cropped just above the ankle and belted at the waist to accentuate her slim figure.

Black leather brogues artfully matched her buckled over-the-shoulder bag, as Dakota clung to a 'best day ever' shopping bag.

The How To Be Single actress added a touch of glamour to the understated ensemble with large bedazzled earrings and a simple gold chain necklace.

Accessorise like the A-list with Dakota's bag by Gucci

With autumn here we're excited about shopping for our new season wardrobe.

And as well as boots, a winter coat and some cozy knits, we'll be investing in a smart new bag too. While summer is about fringing and unstructured arm candy in soft suede and canvas, at this time of year we need something more formal.

Something, perhaps, a little more like Dakota Johnson's swoon-worthy bag by Gucci. What's not to love about this beauty? It's boxy shape is ideal for the buttoned up look of autumn, the gold fastening adds just the right amount of bling and we're obsessing over that red, and blue ribbon shoulder strap. Yep, we're swooning.

And so we're wondering how we can afford ot buy it and still pay the rent... If you're lucky enough to be feeling flush then why not click (right) to buy it now? For those without the A-list style budget, we've found some similar options from Accessorize, Dune and Love Moschino that'll do the trick.

Dakota and her pal, who dressed in an oversized white t-shirt and shorts, looked to be enjoying the sunny weather as they chatted joyfully during their stroll. 

The actress wore her long chestnut tresses in a stylish up-do, while shielding her eyes from the beaming New York sun with large-rimmed tinted shades.

Dakota has been hard at work on the back-to-back filming of Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed, the sequels to her breakthrough film Fifty Shades Of Grey.

Starlet: Fifty Shades Darker is set for release in 2017, while Fifty Shades Freed will hit cinemas in 2018

The trio of infamously raunchy movies have given the actors an abundance of sex scenes to perform.  

In April, the Texan actress explained the process alongside her hunky co-star Jamie Dornan was 'not ... comfortable. It's pretty tedious'.

At the time, she was filming the sequels in Vancouver, Canada, and explained: 'I've been simulating sex for seven hours straight right now, and I'm over it.'

Fifty Shades Darker is set for release in 2017, while Fifty Shades Freed will hit cinemas in 2018.

Also this weekend Fifty Shades of Grey author E.L. James is celebrating the birthday of her character Anastasia Steele by sharing an excerpt from her upcoming book.

The writer is getting ready to release a new novel telling the events from Fifty Shades Darker from the perspective of Christian Grey.

'Good morning, all. I know you’re anxiously awaiting the trailer, and that’s happening… soon. In the meantime, in honour of Ana’s birthday, there’s this,' E.L. captioned the excerpt on her Facebook account.

The book will be released sometime in 2017.
