CORRIE star Ellie Leach was all smiles as she enjoyed the sunshine during a day out in Manchester.
The Coronation Street actress looked a world away from her usually sombre character Faye Windass.
Dressed in a pair of cut-off denim shorts and white vest top, the 21-year-old had her long brunette locks smoothed back in bun.
She finished off the outfit with a colourful striped shirt and comfy pastel pink Converse trainers.
Ellie was spotted with a bag full of goodies after a visit to House Of Evelyn Hair and Beauty.
Ellie, who is Brooke Vincent’s cousin, joined the cast of Coronation Street in 2011.

Since then, in the role of Faye Windass, she has cemented herself as one of the key players in Weatherfield.
She recently took six months off the soap while her character was in prison.
She was sentenced for attacking Adam, thinking he was pervert Ray and left him for dead.
Her character returned to screens this year, with Ellie admitting she had a “boring” time doing “nothing”.
"It was the most boring six months. I couldn't wait to get back to work,” she explained.
