Back to her Mean Girls roots! Lindsay Lohan shows off new red locks reminiscent of her infamous movie character in cosy Instagram selfie

She's been auburn, blonde and brunette over the years.

And Lindsay Lohan - who is naturally a red head - appears to have undergone a colour transformation once more if her latest Instagram upload is anything to go by.

The selfie was posted to the social networking site on Monday afternoon, while she lay snugly at home under a blanket, wrapped up in a thick indigo sweater and looking coquettishly at the camera.

Lady in red: Lindsay Lohan shows off redder locks reminiscent of her infamous movie character Cady Heron in cosy Instagram shot

Lighter Lohan: Linday's last post last week showed the 30-year-old blowing a kiss to the camera, with a much lighter tinted mane

Her tresses fell loosely around her head on the white pillow she was lying on, accentuating the striking red shade she now appears to be sporting.

In contrast, her last post last week showed the 30-year-old blowing a kiss to the camera, with a much lighter tinted mane, as was also the case when she was snapped attending a Hope & Rehabilitation Charity event for underprivileged children in Russia last week.

She also posted a photo last week of the Disney character Ariel from The Little Mermaid, famous also for being a red head.

She had captioned the photo 'My dream role' - hinting that she would one day love to portray Ariel on screen.

While her new do might very well be an ode to The Little Mermaid, it's also reminiscent of Lindsay's character in the hit movie Mean Girls. 

Role reprisal: Her new do might very well be an ode to Lindsay's character in the hit movie Mean Girls, Cady

Dream role: She also posted a photo last week of the Disney character Ariel from The Little Mermaid, famous also for being a red head

She plays Cady Heron in the cult film, alongside Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried, and sported naturally auburn locks in the 2004 comedy.

The actress hasn't hidden the fact that she would one day like to reprise the role of Cady.

Just last month she sent her 5.1million Instagram followers into a frenzy when she posted a throwback shot of her Mean Girl cast members captioning it 'Miss you all... sequel?'

For the time being, Lindsay seemed happy to be hibernating from the bad weather in Monday's latest post, captioning her cosy photo: 'Smiling my way through this rainy weather and trying to not acknowledge that I have a cold'.

The actress' name has, over the last few days, been cited in a battery case involving two Russian men.

According to TMZ, a 24-year-old man reported an assault in his Las Vegas hotel room last month after the men accused him of spreading rumours about the Georgia Rule star.

Make like Lindsay in a midi dress by Lavish Alice

She might be confusing fans with her new accent, but when it comes to style, she's still the same old Lindsay Lohan!

The actress was pictured out and about in London wearing an abstract printed dress which featured an on trend cut out choker neckline. And the good news is that whilst LiLo's wardrobe is full of designer labels like Givenchy, Fendi and Saint Laurent, this is actually a very budget-friendly dress!

It's by Lavish Alice, the brand that she teamed up with a little while ago to create her very own collection. The midi length is super flattering, and when teamed with over the knee boots, it's a great look. Click the link (right) to buy it now.

The man reported the incident, which allegedly took place at the Excalibur hotel, to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police in a report seen by the site.

The report claims that the men believed they recognised the victim from Coachella, in April but he denies saying anything about Lindsay.

A representative for Lindsay Lohan told the website that she does not know the alleged victim, and MailOnline has similarly reached out for comment.

The website also reports that the investigation has been closed after he refused to co-operate with the police department.  

Make love not war: The actress has since denied any association with the alleged victim

Meanwhile, former wild child Lindsay has been focusing on her humanitarian work over partying, of late.

She is currently trying to learn a variety of languages, after spending the summer in Europe. 

Lindsay told the DailyMail.com: 'I've been learning different languages since I was a child. 

'I'm fluent in English and French can understand Russian and am learning Turkish, Italian and Arabic.'

Switching focus: The man is thought to have been recognised from Coachella music festival in April and accused of speaking ill about Lindsay

Fans will remember that the beauty used an English twang to pull off a memorable switch in 1998 children's film The Parent Trap, when she played transatlantic twins.

But a baffling recording of the actress demonstrating a European variation on her American accent last month, enabled the star to dub it 'Lilohan'.

'It's a mixture of most of the languages I can understand or am trying to learn,' she explained. 

Doing her bit: Lindsay told the DailyMail.com, that she is launching a range of tops as a way of giving back to charity

Taking it one step further, Linsday decided to launch a clothing range in association with Represent with slogans such as 'I only speak Lilohan' plastered across the front.  

She explained: '[Represent and I] decided to make the T-shirts to turn mainstream media into something positive for the world and thought it would be a nice thing to do.

'The shirts will support young children suffering and help raise money for Turkey to help with Syrian refugees, I'm very excited we could make this happen!

'The design was a team effort we all put some ideas into it.' 

Near and dear to her heart: Funds will also go to The Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency of Turkey (AFAD), which in addition to putting in earthquake safety measures and providing aid to those effected by earthquakes in Turkey, is helping to support Syrian refugees
