Amanda Bynes is coming out of retirement -- online, that is.

The 26-year-old starlet famously (and abruptly) stripped down her Twitter account to nearly nothing in August, after she was accused of being involved in a hit-and-run accident -- one of two such charges she faced this year. But on Friday, Nov. 23, the What a Girl Wants actress resurfaced on the site.

"My phone got taken twice but I got it back & am waiting to get reverified. I love my fans!" she tweeted, along with a note telling her nearly 284,000 followers to subscribe to her new Instagram account.

The former Nickelodeon child star then began posting a series of Instagrammed shots in which she appears in a fur coat, red turban, oversized sunglasses, and maroon-colored lipstick.

"What up doe?" she wrote below one photo, which appeared three separate times on her account. (Each version of the pic had a different caption. One was accompanied by "[Love] my turban!" Another read "Bout to get my nails done. :D What color should I get? I want to go long and pointy!")

Bynes also shared a photo of her super-skinny legs, with the note: "Losing weight is hard to do! I love jeans with sexy holes, mine are from Current Elliot :D"

The somewhat unusual self-portraits are the first the star has posted in quite a while. She's been keeping a low profile as she deals with her many legal troubles -- in addition to the hit-and-run charges, she faces a DUI and two counts of driving with a suspended license -- but she insists she's doing just fine.

"I'm not 'troubled.' I don't get naked in public," she told Us Weekly earlier this month, after InTouch published a story claiming that the actress had paraded naked around an NYC tanning salon recently. "I'm 26, a multi-millionaire, retired. Please respect my privacy."

I like how she says please respect my privacy, but then posts pictures of herself on instagram and tweets to her 280,000 followers. These celebs can't have it both ways!

Sad to see someone with potential fall so hard and far. Where in the world are her parents and family. I know there is only so much they can do to help her but try something before she dies. If she were my daughter, I wouldn't care if I had to follow her where ever she goes, I wouldn't ignore the problem.

It's truly upsetting to watch her become such a wreck. I used to love watching her as a kid.
