Amy Schumer and a friend got into the spirit of things when they swung by a themed tearoom in New York City.

The 35-year-old comic was spotted on Wednesday emerging from an outpost of a Manhattan chain called Alice's Tea Cup.

Both women had put on bright fairy wings, and at one point spread their arms, pretending they were about to lift off from the pavement.

The Trainwreck writer and star had perched a grey-rimmed pair of cat-eye sunglasses onto her face and a thick cap on her head.

Bundling up in a black anorak, she teamed a dark pair of tight jeans with gleaming black boots. She held a cardboard cup.

This has been a banner week for the Inside Amy Schumer star, who's announced her next stand-up special will premiere on Netflix on March 7.

In a statement The Hollywood Reporter have quoted, she said: 'Very happy to be a part of the Netflix family for this special,' cracking: 'Maybe now they will look at my Stranger Things audition tape to play the demogorgon for Season 2.'

Her most recent stand-up special, Live From The Apollo, was directed by Chris Rock, who's himself secured a $40 million deal for two Netflix specials.

Live From The Apollo premiered on HBO during October 2015 and earned three Primetime Emmy nominations, as well as one nomination each by the Director's Guild Of America and the Writer's Guild Of America.

The set she's had filmed for the upcoming special took place at the Bellco Theatre in the Colorado Convention Centre in Denver early last November.

Snatched, a comedy she's co-written and starred in, will feature Goldie Hawn as her mother and will open in Britain and America on May 12.

Thank You For Your Service, a drama about American veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder, will also feature her and is slated for release this year.
