high school musical skinny

Ashley Tisdale is soaking in lots of sun this summer and her sexy tan proves it.

The former High School Musical hottie has been showing off her lighter locks and we're loving it.

Ms. Tisdale had been rockin' brown hair for awhile now, but we're glad she's gone back to blonde. However, 70% of our X17online readers think her dark hair is a better look.

Short shorts, flip flips and long flowing blonde hair ... such a Southern California girl!
