Emily Ratajkowski highlights her trim figure and toned legs in a mini skirt in New York City

She recently moved to Los Angeles after years of living in New York City. 

But as models get back to work Emily Ratajkowski headed back to her old stomping grounds and made the streets of NYC her catwalk. 

The 29-year-old showcased her trim figure in a chic ensemble as she was spotted out and about on Friday.

The former UCLA student wore a red and yellow floral patterned mini skirt, that she teamed with a dark brown leather crop top. 

With a plunging neckline and puffed long-sleeves, the top added shape to her outfit. 

Opting for comfort, she added grey lace-up sneakers to her look as she walked down the sidewalk.

For accessories, she wore thick gold hoop earrings, a gold choker and matching pendant necklace. 

While she covered her eyes in in chic brown cat eye sunglasses, she opted to not wear a face mask despite a New York state mandate requiring face coverings in public. 

Though, Emily did carry a white mask in her hand, as she chatted with a friend on her walk. 

Lunch date: She seemed to be headed to lunch as she later shared snaps on social media from a covered patio table, to Instagram

The model also left her hair up in a sleek bun with pieces framing her face and she carried a white leather shoulder bag with her essentials.

Seated next to a wire fence and road blocks, she enjoyed a meal in a makeshift patio as cities look for ways to increase businesses despite dining regulations.

She and her husband Sebastian Bear-McClard fled New York City while it was the American epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic and flew to Los Angeles on April 15.

The Centers For Disease Control And Prevention had issued an advisory on March 28 asking ‘residents of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut to refrain from non-essential domestic travel for 14 days effective immediately.’

However in late June as COVID-19 cases spiked dramatically in California, Emily and Sebastian crossed back to New York.
