Amanda Bynes was seen walking around Los Angeles.
The former child star, 38, wore a white long-sleeved T-shirt with a crew neck and black leggings.
She carried a small white bag and wore her dyed black locks parted.
The Amanda Show alum engaged in a lively conversation over the phone.
This is the first time the What a Girl Wants actress has been seen since she abandoned her plan to become a manicurist and announced her fashion collaboration.

Amanda has not passed the licensing requirements to become a nail technician despite several attempts.
Amanda announced her fashion line in an Instagram post on October 2, revealing that she is working with designer Austin Babbitt, aka A**pizza, on some original designs.
Bynes said she and Babbitt are “working on doing a pop-up art show in December” and that it “will have art and clothing” in a statement to People.
The Nickolodeon star shared some images of her upcoming collection on her Instagram Stories.
“My associate’s degree in art with a concentration in product development at FIDM was worth it,” he captioned the post.
Among the pieces was a T-shirt with a drawing of a woman, which sold for $60 on Babbitt’s website.
There was also a pair of black and red graphic shorts, which sold for $100.
She then posted one of her artworks, featuring a crying woman with a star earring and the words “You broke my heart,” writing, “I could do a Christmas art show…”
The image appeared to be a self-portrait, as the woman had a heart-shaped tattoo under one of her eyes, just like Amanda.
The former Hollywood star graduated from California’s Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising (FIDM) in 2019.
In October 2022, she revealed that she would be attending cosmetology school to become a manicurist.
However, last April, Amanda explained that she failed the board exam to obtain her manicurist license despite several attempts.
Their new fashion collaboration comes 14 years after Bynes retired from acting amid mental health and substance abuse issues.
The California-born star started in the industry at the age of seven and became one of the biggest child actors of her generation.
She later went on to be a teen queen of romantic comedies, starring in several hit films, including She’s the Man opposite Channing Tatum in 2006.
In 2010 she declared on Twitter – at the age of 24 – that she would retire and wrote that “being an actress is not as fun as it seems.”
The retirement was short-lived and Bynes returned to work a few weeks later, announcing that she would star in the 2010 film Easy A, alongside Emma Stone and Penn Badgley.
However, his career took a hit after a DUI arrest in 2012, which culminated in him being charged with two misdemeanor hit-and-run charges.
And her troubles didn’t end there, as the following year, the actress was placed under a nine-year conservatorship after an ongoing struggle with mental health and substance abuse issues.
The former child star, 38, wore a white long-sleeved crew-neck T-shirt and black leggings.
She carried a small white bag and wore her dyed black locks in a half-up style.

In 2019, Bynes entered a mental health facility after a relapse.
The former child star had planned a return to Hollywood in 2018 and that decision contributed to her relapse, it was reported at the time.
In 2022, Bynes’ nine-year conservatorship ended, after a judge ruled that the legal agreement was “no longer necessary.”
In 2023, she was placed on psychiatric hold after being found naked and alone on the streets of downtown Los Angeles in the early morning hours.
