She's Heard it's on-trend: Amber debuts bubblegum pink hair on shopping trip... as she's pictured for the first time since leaving awards bash early following an emergency

Amber Heard debuted her new pink locks on Thursday, as she was pictured for the first time since having to leave awards bash early due to an emergency.

She had been due to be honoured at the star-studded unite4:humanity gala last week, but instead exited through a side door before she could accept her award. 

While it's unclear whether or not her new change of hair colour was a permanent one, the new look, seen in Hollywood, gave her a slightly more edgy and rock chick appearance.

Put your best foot forward in Amber's Proenza Schouler mules

Mules are the must-have shoe of the season, but if you're yet to invest in the trend then look no further than Amber Heard for some inspiration on how to style them.

She was pictured out and about in Hollywood wearing skinny jeans and a sleeveless knitted top. But it was her shoes that really had us reaching for those credit cards!

They're by Proenza Schouler and we love the multicoloured woven fabric and fringe edges. The chunky heels means they're a lot more manageable than stilettos, plus they'll work with everything from jeans and a tee by day or with your best little black dress for evening.

Click (right) to buy them now at Avenue 32, or check out the best of the rest in our edit below. Gucci is one of the labels leading the way with this trend, or Topshop, KG By Kurt Keiger and Tory Burch have got some top notch options!

Heading to the shops with her mother Paige and her lookalike sister Whitney, who were not pictured, the star looked fashion forward with her locks styled into curls.

She wore a cute white knitted vest top for the outing, which saw her popping into a picture frame store and she teamed it with a pair of black faded skinny jeans. 

Earlier in the day, she had a silk embellished blouse worn on top which she removed in the sunshine.

Worlds apart: Her pink locks look quite different to her usual blonde hair which she was sporting just over a week ago at the unite4:humanity gala in Beverly Hills

Clearly a dedicated follower of fashion, the ex wife of movie star Johnny Depp wore a sky-high pair of colourful mules. 

She wore a selection of necklaces and covered up her newly coloured tresses with a stylish hat as she settled into her new look. 

Amber had a plaster on her arm from perhaps a small accident and the other homed a selection of gold bangles.

Meanwhile, her celebrity pals covered for her when she had to leave her awards event early. 

Her friends iO and Cara Delevingne stepped onto the stage in her place, with iO telling the star-studded audience: 'Our dear friend Amber unfortunately suffered a bit of an emergency earlier this evening and she had to go.'

Pictures from the red carpet showed a calm and collected Amber posing nonchalantly in black trousers, hands in her pockets.

Once inside the dining room at the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel in California the actress was surrounded in a huddle by close pals, including British model Cara.

She looked 'distressed and uncomfortable', reports eonline.

Amber then left through a side door, without her gong, which had been due to be presented by Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Somali-born former Dutch politician.

iO added of her pal: 'I want to also say that I've never seen Amber nervous and I've known her quite intimately for a long time.

'And she's met pretty much everyone that you could be starstruck by. But Ayaan Hirsi Ali is as close to God as you could get for her, so to know that Ayaan was here and for her to have to leave anyway means that it was a very serious emergency. We both are hoping that she's okay.'

What's the problem? She had been due to be honoured at the star-studded unite4:humanity gala last week, but instead exited through a side door before she could accept her award
