Susan Boyle insisted she wouldn't change after she shot to worldwide stardom following her appearance on Britain's Got Talent.
But as she stepped out yesterday it appeared she had been on a shopping trip.
The Scottish singer had swapped her matronly look for a new, patterned dress and PVC jacket, along with a pair of high heels.

New look: Susan, yesterday, and during her audition for Britain's Got Talent
But despite her new clothes she was still the same-old Susan who has won fans with her down-to-earth persona - giving photographers an enthusiastic thumbs up.
A video of Susan's audition for Britain's Got Talent looks set to become the most viewed YouTube clip ever.
Less than two weeks after it was uploaded to the site Susan's audition has been watched more than 100million times - making it set to smash the previous record.
And it has been watched five times more than US President Barack Obama's inauguration ceremony in January, which has had 18.5million views.

Not so big: Barack Obama's inauguration speech has been viewed 18.5million times
The current most watched clip on YouTube is comedian Judson Laipply's Evolution Of Dance, which has been viewed 118 million times since it was uploaded in April 2006.
US-based firm Visible Measures tracked 200 videos from top sharing sites and worked out that all clips related to Susan have generated 85.2million views in one week.

The clips include her television interviews and a newly-released recording of her singing Cry Me A River. The track, unearthed by the Daily Record, was recorded in 1999 for a millennium charity compilation CD.

Record viewings: Clips of Susan's audition have been watched by millions around the world on the video sharing site YouTube.

Musical child: Susan always loved singing. It is said to be her first CD recording. Susan, 47, told this week's Star magazine she thought she looked 'like a garage' on TV, but vowed: 'I'm happy the way I am - plump!' The Scottish spinster, who lives with her cat Pebbles, said she was 'much better looking' than Paul Potts, a previous winner. Her rendition of I Dreamed A Dream from the musical Les Miserables made her the red-hot favourite to walk away with the television programme's £100,000 prize, and she was asked if Cowell had offered her a deal yet. She said she had been for a meeting with music label Sony BMG but added: 'I can't comment on that at the moment.' Boyle said she would be very humbled to perform in front of the Queen at the Royal Variety Performance. She said: 'It’s my ambition to sing in front of the Queen. She's a very beautiful lady. 'But I’m doing all this as a tribute to my Mum. If she could see me now, she’d be very proud.'
