Kelly Ripa ditches her glam dresses for leggings and no makeup as she heads to NYC gym for rare off-duty moment
KELLY Ripa has shown off her out-of-office style in candid new photos.
The Live with Kelly and Mark star was captured as she walked down the street in New York City on Tuesday.
In the exclusive shots, Kelly, 52, was seen leaving her $27million house and heading to the gym.
Unaccompanied by her husband and co-star Mark Consuelos, 52, the star headed down the sidewalk with a backpack slung over her shoulder.
Kelly went completely makeup-free and had her blond hair loose in gentle waves.
In comparison to her glamorous television outfits, Kelly wore a casual gray sweater over a black top.

She finished the sporty look with mid-length black leggings and flat white sneakers, ditching her usual high heels.
Kelly's gym trip comes amid fans' concern for her weight after the star looked especially skinny in a Generation Gap Instagram post.
"That lady is way too slim," said one critic as another added: "Stick figure. My god."
A third added: "Start eating," while one person suggested that Kelly "needs curves."

"Is Kelly ok? She looks really skinny," asked another.
MOVING ON?
Kelly recently revealed that she doesn’t plan on staying on the show forever.
In a chat with Purist magazine in August, she was asked to explain how she balances “doing one of the most challenging and scary things” - hosting a live show - while being risk-averse, as she’s mentioned in her memoir.
Kelly admitted: “I think the risk-averse quality I have is probably the reason I stayed with the same job for so long. Other offers come along, but I like to stick with what I know.
“I am very steadfast in everything I do, and so when you have me, you have me for life.”
She revealed: “Having said that, I don’t intend to work at this job for the rest of my life.
“I do talk about retirement with great interest, but right now I’m very happy, especially working with Mark.”
OLD DREAMS
During a recent episode of her Apple podcast, Let's Talk Off Camera, Kelly confessed that there were "so many career paths" that she would have "much rather" pursued.
"I like to say I'd be a fitness trainer, but I wouldn't be. I like to say I'd be a ballet dancer, but I wasn't good enough," Kelly revealed on the audio show.

The morning show moderator continued: "I like to say that I'd be a travel agent, but just because I like to travel. I would be an amazing dermatologist because I would be like Dr. Pimple Popper.
"I love extracting things...I would be a locally-sourced Bar Mitzvah party maker. Yes, that would be my job."
