Jennifer Lawrence appeared in high spirits as she strolled around New York City with pals after grabbing dinner.

The actress and new mother, 31 – who gave birth to her baby four months ago – rocked a summery outfit for her outing.

She grinned and laughed with friends while cutting a casual figure in a simple white T-shirt teamed with cream linen trousers.

The Hunger Games star – who appeared to opt for a fresh-faced look – put her belongings into a large caramel tote. She donned some strappy sandals, accessorising the outfit with a simple pendant necklace.

Jennifer Lawrence had a fun night out with friends!

The actress enjoyed dinner at New York City’s Via Carota restaurant Monday night (August 21) with La Ligne co-founder Molly Howard and Isla Beauty co-founder Tracy Dubb.

The trio shared laughter and smiles on their dinner date and were spotted walking the streets of New York.
