Bella Thorne is the epitome of chic in black midi-dress as she steps out in New York

Bella Thorne turned heads in an elegant black ensemble as she stepped out of New York’s Bowery Hotel on Friday.

The actress, 25, was the epitome of chic as she slipped into a form-fitting black midi dress and showed off her enviable figure.

The dress had a whole row of big gold buttons.

The singer gave herself some extra inches with a pair of black heels embellished with golden details, which perfectly matched her look.

She had her fiery red locks styled in a high ponytail with a black bow, with two strands of hair down framing her pretty face.

The beauty added a touch of glamor with a striking set of gold jewelery – including ear-shaped pendants and lots of chunky rings on both of her hands.

Bella seemed in her element when she stopped to pose for the cameras outside the hotel.

The stunner rocked a peach lipstick that matched a hint of peach blush on her cheeks, along with a generous amount of luminous bronzer.

The Time Is Up actress looked radiant as she turned the street into her personal catwalk – with several fans waiting for her outside.

Earlier this month, Bella enjoyed her time at Coachella in Palm Springs, where she opened up to her fans about her past skin problems.

The star went makeup-free for a slew of new Instagram snaps and recalled her struggles with cystic acne over the years.

The former Disney star penned the caption to her 25.2 million fans and followers: “Fresh Faced Friday! Are you racing to Coachella.’

The Game Of Love actress then said, “Also if you ever know I struggled with cystic acne,” and gushed excitedly, “Look at my face with no makeup!!!!” The star stated she was “very, very happy,” adding that her “new skin routine is killing it for me.”

The beauty was seen relaxing in the passenger seat of a vehicle as she made her way to the desert to join other celebrities and attendees at the annual music festival.

She put on a black printed short-sleeved shirt to stay comfortable during the brief out-of-town road trip, and stuck her tongue out at the camera in the first instant.

Her voluminous locks were parted to the side and flowed naturally down her shoulders.

The actress opted to go makeup-free for the photo series to show off her positive progress with her skin after “struggling” with cystic acne, the most serious form of acne.

Natural sunlight streamed in through the windows and sunroof as she snapped some close-up selfies.

Social media users flocked to the comment section to show their support for Bella, including her older sister, Dani, who wrote, “A beautiful angel…you can feel your happiness radiating.”

In the past, The Babysitter star has opened up about her battle with acne and feeling positive about herself.

During an interview with Vogue in 2019, Bella admitted to the outlet, “I don’t like the whole perfection look. That just never works for me.’

She then went on to say, “My skin has been in the making for a long time. I don’t even know how many years I’ve had cystic acne, but it started as dermatitis and then I’ve tried everything you can think of.’

In addition to trying different facials and other skin treatments, she revealed that washing her face less had helped her. “Something is said about washing your face, and when I had really bad acne, that was one of the things I stopped doing, and it really helped my skin.”

Her struggle with cystic acne was not only personal, but also her professional career.

While talking to Pop Sugar is pretty unfiltered in 2016, Bella had revealed, “At one point they said, ‘Maybe you won’t get hired by directors because they just look at your skin.

She also got candid about the “stereotypes” surrounding acne, explaining, “You go out and people think you’re gross, that you’re disgusting.”

“That you shouldn’t take care of yourself because you’re unclean because you have acne. But really, it’s something everyone gets!’

The actress has continued to exude confidence in her own skin and has provided inspiration to others.

Earlier this month, she jumped to her Instagram Stories to share additional unfiltered, makeup-free selfies with her fans and followers. In an instant, she added the caption “skin skin skin LETS GO NO MAKEUP” to the bottom of the photo as she confidently showed off her glowing skin.

While posing in a vehicle, she quickly took another close-up selfie and typed “SKIN SKIN.”

Regarding the growing confidence over the years, the former Disney channel star shared OK! magazine in 2021, ‘Being real and showing off my imperfections gave me the confidence I have now.’

“I didn’t have to sit there and look at an edited photo of myself and say, ‘Oh, that’s what you could look like.’ On the contrary, posting an unedited photo of me allows me to see myself for all my natural beauty and be thankful for it,” she kindled.
