Love that smile! And we also love the fact that we're (hopefully) just a few months away from hearing new music from Hilary Duff.

On Wednesday afternoon the singer/actress stopped by the recording studio in Hollywood, and she's putting finishing touches on her upcoming fifth studio album. It's been about seven years since she's put out a record, so what can fans expect from the former Disney darling?

When she appeared on Citytv Toronto’s Breakfast Television back in December, she dished some deets on her new tunes. “I think by spring I should have a single,” she told the show. “The first six songs I’ve done have all been really dancey and upbeat, uplifting, happy stuff. So now I’m getting into the moody. It’s important to have that fine balance and show all your sides. It’s got a bit of an indie, dance feel.”
