She raised several eyebrows - and pulse rates - after flashing her derrière in a tiny pair of high-waist cutoffs during a shopping trip earlier this week.
And after coming under fire for being perpetually being in a near state of undress, newly-engaged Miley Cyrus finally decided to cover up (sort of).
Stepping out in a pair of red graphic-printed Jodhpur pants, Miley instead cheekily flashed her tanned and toned abs in a white crop top.
The confident 19-year-old, who was spotted leaving her Pilates class today, has always had an exhibitionist streak according to one friend.
'She thinks it looks cool. She is not expecting to give people a free show,' the source told Hollywood Life.
'I think that she has that Southern style, where it's a bit carefree. And guess what? We all wear Daisy Dukes as well because we love them!'
More important than the revealing wardrobe is Miley's stalled movie career.
While the actress-singer has been recently enjoying the high-life as Liam Hemsworth's fiancée and mother to four rescue dogs, storm clouds have been gathering on her serious film career.
The former Disney star's last film, LOL, co-starring Demi Moore was a box office bomb in May.
Last February, E! reported that Miley dropped out of voicing a role in the animated feature Hotel Transylvania in order to 'take some more time to figure out what her next move in the movies should be.'
However, Selena Gomez quickly swooped in and replaced Cyrus as Mavis, whose Dracula father will be voiced by Adam Sandler.
The Hannah Montana star's movie career wasn't helped by starring in The Last Song two years ago either since the romantic drama was met with poor reviews and moderate box office success.
A lot rides on Miley's next film, a comedy with Jeremy Piven called So Undercover, released next week.
Meanwhile, her 22-year-old fiancé's film career is in full swing.
The busy Australian actor was spotted in New Orleans this week wearing a bandage on his handsome face while on the set of Empire State, which also stars with Emma Roberts and Nikki Reed.
The film follows the story of two childhood friends who plan to rob an armoured car depository, but are thwarted by a New York City police officer.
Starting in late fall, Liam will begin shooting the highly-anticipated sequel to The Hunger Games called Catching Fire.
However, Miley is reportedly 100 per cent set on releasing her sixth studio album before her summer wedding to Hemsworth.
Miley, who's recently been tweeting with rapper-producer Pharrell Williams, plans on having him produce her album along with LA-based Hit-Boy, according to Hollywood Life.
The collaboration would be her first since covering a Bob Dylan song for the charity album Chimes of Freedom: Songs of Bob Dylan last January.
