Rumer Willis looked very casual when leaving the Great White restaurant on Melrose Ave in West Hollywood on Thursday.
The House Bunny actress daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis went bra-free in a semi-sheer ivory V-neck tank top.
The lounge singer added a long beige-and-white checked pleated skirt and Birkenstock sandals as she carried her cell phone.
Her flaxen hair was worn up in a messy bun and she had on little makeup while showing off a pretty gold necklace and matching anklet.
It has been six months since she welcomed her baby girl Louetta with beau Derek Richard Thomas, 29.

Two weeks ago she shared three new photos when she revealed how she and her Louetta both were stricken with the flu at the same time this past week.
In the lengthy new post she wrote about the lessons she learned while struggling with the idea about how she could take care for her child while she was sick.
'I have been reflecting this week on the strength of Mamas, of this incredible gift of resilience and love. The softness that can come from vulnerability and asking for help,' she began.
'The flu took both my Lou and me simultaneously, and it brought not just symptoms but moments of doubt. Could I manage taking care of her and myself in this weakened state?'
Realizing mothers all over the world have had these doubts, but not always the resources to achieve a heathy balance for both the mother and her child, Willis recognized the importance of the prenatal and postpartum periods and is now advocating for Needed, an innovative supplement company geared towards promoting healthy pregnancies, mothers and babies.
After disclosing her self doubt and 'storm of uncertainty' about whether she could take care of herself and her daughter while sick and weak, the Once Upon A Time In Hollywood star revealed how they both 'discovered an uncharted strength within ourselves.'

'The resilience I summoned in the face of a common challenge mothers everywhere deal with truly showed me so much about myself and my capacity,' she explained.
'She continued, 'As a parent, you sometimes question your abilities, but that week, as the flu raged on, it became clear that I was more capable than I ever thought. That I could be her safe place and I could hold the container for both of us.'
Willis, who appears to be breastfeeding baby Lou while relaxing in bed in the cover photo, went on to share her gratitude for 'the moments that push me and challenge me and show me how much stronger I am than ever I thought I was.'
She confessed, 'Navigating through her fever was hard to watch but we made it through fueled by love, determination, and the proper nutritional and supplement support I'm fortunate to have. It's a support that is needed by many.'
After referencing the supplemental support she receives by way of Needed, Willis turned her attention to her own needs.
Growing family: It has been six months since she welcomed her baby girl Louetta with beau Derek Richard Thomas, 29
Ill: Willis, 35, gave an update on her and baby Louetta's health and well being that included a photo of the first-time mother apparently breastfeeding
'I also realized the importance of giving myself grace. As we all should as mothers,' she continued, adding, 'I have been lucky enough to have the most easeful and wonderful postpartum experience. I have been gifted with a miraculously easy baby and I have an incredible support system of family and friends around me. But most of them were out of town while we were sick.'
'This past week magnified how challenging navigating some of the difficult moments that come up during the postpartum period especially without community and support.
Willis concluded, 'That's why I stand proudly with @Needed, advocating for better postpartum support, maternal health, and community.'
For the second photo of the post the grateful new mom shared a photo of her baby taking a nap, while all wrapped up in a blanket.
And there's a third of Louetta grabbing hold of her mother's hand.
Willis and boyfriend Derek Richard Thomas, 29, welcomed their first child together in what was an unmedicated home birth on April 18, five days after her estimated due date.
Thomas was by her side, along with a doula, a midwife, her mother Demi Moore, and sisters Scout and Tallulah Willis, according to Today.

It's unclear exactly when the couple began dating but their romance appears to have started in the first half of 2022.
In June of last year, Willis posted a picture with Thomas on Instagram with the caption 'just a couple of troublemakers,' and in December, she upped the ante by posting shots of them kissing.
Six months into becoming a mother, the Dancing With The Stars season 20 champion is over the moon in love with her baby girl.
'I've never loved anything more in my life,' she said during the Informed Pregnancy podcast. 'She's my favorite person.'
