Lisa Wilkinson was spotted flaunting her brand-new haircut in Sydney on Thursday amid rumours she is set to make a huge return to television.
The former Project host, 64, had her famous locks chopped off this week, hiring a stylist who worked for her former employer Network Nine.
Showing off her new glossy tresses, the Channel Ten star hid her eyes behind a pair of dark designer glasses as she covered up with a black turtle neck and slacks.
Adding a pop of beige tones, the television presenter accessorised with a brown belt and long cream trench coat to protect her from the cold.
Lisa juggled all her essentials in hand as she also flaunted her bright red nail polish in a pair of basic black sandals.

The former host of The Project opted to lop off her famous locks on Monday, and embrace a look she hasn't worn for some years.
Lisa took to Instagram to tease her brand new hairdo with her 350K followers, with the once-Network 10 star tipping her hat to former employer, Channel Nine, in more ways than one.
In the frame, Lisa is seen taking a cheeky selfie in a salon as a stylist with 'magic hands' expertly curls her freshly cut, shaggy tresses that now sit shoulder length.
Lisa's comments left no doubt the seasoned television star was pleased as punch with the results.

'Gone the chop,' Lisa proudly announced alongside the image.
'Don't think I've had it this short since the early Today show years. Feels sooo good,' she continued, before adding the hashtags #shorthairdontcare and #newbeginnings.
Lisa, who is still believed to be under contract with Network 10, opted to trust her transformation with Channel Nine stylist Maria Maree Maree.
It comes after news that Lisa wants to make a return to TV screens.
The former darling of breakfast TV is keen to get back to delivering more 'blockbuster interviews' in the New Year, friends told the Weekend Australian.
Lisa quit The Project in November 2022 and despite remaining on the Ten payroll until the end of 2024, she hasn't appeared on the channel since.

Despite her lengthy hiatus from the network, Lisa has remained in the public eye through her role in Bruce Lehrmann's highly publicised defamation trial.
Friends of Lisa say her court appearances played in her favour by giving the TV star 'a constant stream of publicity'.
'Yes, she's been off air for a while but I don't think anyone will have forgotten her,' former Seven and Nine executive Peter Meakin told the Weekend Australian.
'I'm sure her loyal followers will remain loyal.'
