Bing Crosby's nepo baby daughter Mary Crosby looked incredible as she stepped out for a rare outing in Malibu over the weekend.
The 66-year-old actress, who is known for her role in the hit soap opera series Dallas, stopped by Malibu Farmer's Market on Sunday to pick up a few items.
Crosby is the daughter of the late Hollywood legend and his second wife, Kathryn Grant. The pair had also welcomed sons Harry and Nathaniel.
She kept it casual for the daytime excursion in a patterned dress and a pair of brown shoes.
A dark green beanie was placed on top of her locks, which fell down in natural waves, and she easily carried a green tote bag over her left shoulder.
Crosby followed in her father's entertainment footsteps and made her screen debut in a 1967 episode of The Danny Thomas Hour.

Throughout the '70s, she took on minor roles in other shows such as Starsky and Hutch, CHiPs, as well as Brothers And Sisters.
Beginning in 1979, Crosby was cast as Kristin Shepherd in the CBS soap opera.
The character was the scheming sister of Sue Ellen Ewing (played by Linda Gray) and eventually turned out to be the assailant who shot the main character J.R. Ewing (portrayed by Larry Hagman).
The episode that revealed who shot J.R. aired in November 1980, and it was notably one of the highest-rated episodes in television history.
Crosby briefly reprised the role of Kristin on the show in 1981, as well as in the final episode, which aired in 1991.
Before the iconic episode in which she shot J.R. aired, the actress admitted that she didn't have a clue who the culprit was while filming it.
'I had no idea who had shot J.R., none of us did,' she previously told the Daily Mail. 'The producers of the show had everybody shoot J.R., and I mean everybody.
'The make-up artists were filmed shooting him, the producers were filmed shooting him, Larry himself was filmed shooting himself.'

She added, 'The show's producers were very smart. Had the secret actually gotten out, then I think they would have switched me out with somebody else.'
Crosby later admitted that she had suspected 'it could have been me because J.R. needed a new mistress and the show needed new blood, but I still didn't believe anything until after it aired.
'They really did make sure that no one knew for sure, and that was really a miracle because they were able to maintain the secret through the actors' strike and the hiatus and the summer, and to have pulled that off was incredible.'
Crosby also told the Daily Mail that, 'Dallas was hugely instrumental in putting me on the map. First, I was Bing's daughter, then I became the "girl who shot J.R."'
However, she admitted that waiting for roles after gaining recognition on the soap opera eventually hurt her acting career.
'After Dallas, I made that classic mistake – having my 15 minutes of fame and thinking I could afford to wait around for more 'arty' roles. So I put myself out of commission and waited for work that was less available to me.'
She continued, 'I was certainly in demand, and people knew who I was because of Dallas, but I said no to things that I didn't think were great and wanted to do movies and art movies.
'I think if I'd gone full force into television I would probably have worked nonstop forever.

'But I wanted something else, something of more substance, and of course that's not going to happen just from starring in Dallas.'

'I think he found a balance between the business and having a life. For many people in the business, it's about ego, but dad had so many other things in life that he loved.'
The actress was married to Eb Lottimer from 1978 to 1989. She later tied the knot for the second time in 1998 to Mark Brodka, and the couple are parents to two sons.
'I'm very, very happy in my life and with the people in my life. So it's every phase of life brings different gifts, and I am so happy to be where I am today,' Crosby gushed.
