All eyes were on an uncharacteristically camera shy Kylie Jenner as she exited a Los Angeles restaurant on Tuesday evening.

The 17-year-old model half-sister of Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian enjoyed a low-key meal at popular West Hollywood eatery Mr. Chow before venturing outside to her waiting car – and a thong of onlookers.

Fashion forward Kylie opted for a distinctly urban ensemble on the night, opting for a loose fitting red shirt dress under a blue nylon bomber jacket.

Here she comes: Kylie Jenner made an exit from popular West Hollywood restaurant Mr. Chow on Tuesday evening 

Chunky Timberland boots completed the look, while the stone grey handbag that hung from the crook of her right arm rounded things off.

The teenage model kept her eyes lowered to the sidewalk as she made her way outside, her mobile phone tightly clutched in her right hand.

Kylie and sister Kendall, 19, recently spoke to Splash! magazine about growing up in the spotlight and stepping out on their own as businesswomen in their own right.

Stylish: The model opted for a red minidress and nylon bomber jacket with Timberland boots for her latest outing 

'It's something that we've grown up with,' Kylie said of the adulation and attention. 'It's kind of normal for us - as normal as it can be.'

She added: 'We have an amazing family surrounding us. 'They taught us so much about growing up in [the spotlight].'

But older sister Kendall recalled a time when the attention put Kylie in danger.

Normal: Kylie recently told Splash! magazine that she is used to growing up in the spotlight 

'You got chased in Miami, didn't you?' she said. 'We were really young, and [Kylie] had to run and escape them. She came to me and was like, "Kendall, that wasn't normal."'

Kylie and Kendall certainly appear to have adjusted, with both young women already launching careers in the fashion world.

Kendall is on the road to becoming a supermodel in her own right, having walked both the New York and Paris Fashion Week runways for brands such as Givenchy, Chanel, and Marc Jacobs.

Meanwhile Kylie has her own brand of hair extensions with Bellami hair called Kylie Hair Kouture.
