That's better! Leona Lewis goes for beach chic in Miami leaving her edgy makeover behind

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Taking a break: Leona Lewis was casual in beach chic as she took some time out at the beach in Miami, Florida today


Leona Lewis tried her hand at an edgier look wearing dresses with lips on them and having an edgier hair do.

But she seems to have reverted back to what she knows best and looked casual and chic while enjoying a day at the beach in Miami, Florida today.

Dressed in a white vest and flowing peach skirt, the Bleeding Love singer spent the afternoon with her assistant while taking a break in the Sunshine State where she is currently recording her new album.

Leona later donned a wide-brimmed black hat to hide her face from the glaring rays.
Known for being a down to earth girl from South London, Leona is now earning herself a reputation as a diva.

A source who works at the luxury 5-star hotel that she is staying in has said Leona is asking hotel staff to pull out all the stops while she is in town.

When Leona wants to sit by the pool, she has them switch on the sprinkler system that surrounds the pool area, an insider revealed.

This stops anyone from looking into the back of the hotel from the public boardwalk, unless, of course, they want to get drenched.

It is then switched off when she is settled in her poolside cabana, away from anyone's view.


Sources also revealed that after a couple of days Leona asked to use the staff door to come and go.

The hotel's slogan is 'Whatever, Whenever' so they don't appear to mind her demanding ways!

Leona's recent glamorous makeover did not appear to be a hit with fans.
Commenters of forums pleaded with the former X Factor winner to return to her old, girl-next-door image.

'Don't change, we like you as you are!' one commenter wrote, while another added: 'What a shame. She had a striking look before, you couldn't mistake her. Now she looks like all the rest.'

Some even speculated that Leona had undergone such a transformation, that perhaps she had gone under the knife.

Reports were abound about the singer have surgery on her nose and even a breast enhancement, both claims rubbished by her spokesperson at the time as 'utter nonsense.'

Many expressed concern that residing in the U.S. had gone to Leona's head and that she was conforming to the pressures of Hollywood.

Leona is living in Miami while she works on her anticipated third album, and like her changing style, it is expected to be a far edgier record with dance tracks as opposed to her usual pop ballads.

She has been in the studio working on a series of collaborations with big name producers including Toby Gad, Dallas Austin, Jeff Bhasker, Ryan Tedder, Harvey Mason Jr, Chuck Harmony, Ne-yo and David Guetta.

The singer also has her sights set on acting, and recently told E! Online that she's love to jump on the Glee bandwagon for cameo role.

'I'd love to be on Glee,' she said. 'I'd love to play a rebel. Be a real biker chick in leather and covered in tattoos. A real badass.'
