With her stunning looks, she's always been one to stand out from the crowd.

But Taylor Swift accentuated this trait of hers by donning a bright and bold colour block jumper as she left the celebrity hot-spot restaurant Sketch in London on Friday afternoon.

The Love Song singer, 24, clearly wasn't hoping to merge into the background and enjoy a quiet lunch, but instead attracted a flock of fans and photographers who waited for her outside.

Bold! Taylor Swift stood out in a bright orange and pink sweater as she left Sketch restaurant in London on Friday

Taylor wore an eye-catching pink sweater, featuring an orange back and arms.

She threw it over beige trousers - which actually seemed to match her hair colour perfectly - and donned a pair of suede black pumps with glitzy heels.

The smiley star greeted some fans outside, but - in tune with her name - made a swift exit to her chauffeur driven car which was waiting just outside.

The pop princess is set to perform on the X Factor at the weekend, along with Pharrell Williams - and she is making the most of her time in London until then.

Later tonight, Friday, she will appear on Graham Norton to talk about her new single Shake it Off, alongside two other guests: John Cleese and Kevin Pietersen

In fact, her whole trip has been dominated by her TV and radio appearances; early on Thursday morning, she also joined Lisa Snowden at iconic London landmark The Shard for Capital Radio.

Head-turner: Taylor is busy promoting her latest single Shake It Off

There, she cheered on the Capital Breakfast Show presenter who washed the viewing gallery windows of Western Europe's tallest building.

Lisa, who was once linked to the newly-wed George Clooney, was suspended more than 800 meters above the ground after losing an on-air fundraising challenge.

The lovely lady appears to be enjoying her time in the capital and tweeted how thrilled she was to see her recent Vogue cover in the back of the taxi she was riding in.

She wrote: 'It's so wild being back in London when Shake It Off is in its 3rd week at #1 and I get in the car and see this.'

Swift exit! Having such a busy schedule to meet meant that Taylor had no time to spare before rushing off to her next appointment

Meanwhile, as the UK has gone baking bonkers with the season finale of The Great British Bakeoff, Taylor revealed to Kiss FM that she enjoys making treats for fans during the secret showcases she has been staging for them this week.

She said: 'I made cookies for the first group, and then they kind of talked about it online, and so all the other people were like...I wonder if I get invited to one, I hope she bakes for that one too.

'And so I'm like - Okay, I've got to bake for all of them….but for me, it's actually really fun, because you get to try out all kinds of new recipes and stuff, and for me that's actually very exciting.'

Taylor added: 'It's one of the things I really like to do. It kind of calms me down, because if I'm thinking about measuring out all these ingredients and just kind of following sort of a recipe, then it just is – I'm not thinking about things that stress me out.

'Yeah, it's kind of like – it's just kind of like a comfort thing.'

She also revealed her inspiration comes from the 1980's – despite the fact she was only born in 1989.

'I think I have a few artists from the late '80s who I think, in my mind, were making the most incredible, bold, risky decisions as far as pop music goes.

'They were really kind of ahead of their time, and those are the artists that really inspire me – like Annie Lennox, and what Madonna was doing in the late '80s, and Peter Gabriel, and Fine Young Cannibals. I just feel like that music still holds up.'
