This 80s star rose to fame on a popular television series that established her as a sex symbol.

While out in Los Angeles on Wednesday, the actress, now 71, showed off a new look that was far removed from her days of wearing barely there denim shorts.

The former pin-up girl opted for skinny jeans that showcased her curves, a tight black T-shirt beneath a brown suede jacket, and added a bit of comfort by wearing fuzzy slide sandals.

Her long, light brown hair was parted in the center and styled in long, loose layers.

The beauty — who was born in Ohio — wore natural looking makeup and accessorized with thin dangling earrings. She carried a quilted Chanel purse and a black-and-brown patterned scarf.

The role earned her massive stardom, and a poster of her posing as Daisy sold five million copies after its release.

The bombshell star made headlines during her time in the show, after it was revealed that she had insured her legs for $1 million.
