Lindsay Lohan in her gilded cell: Star makes for an arresting sight as she models ankle tag on sun drenched rooftop of LA home

Lindsay Lohan models her latest fashion accessory - an electronic monitoring bracelet as she remains under house arrest at her California home.
The 24-year-old actress was pictured wearing the device as she soaked up the sun on the roof of her Venice Beach townhouse in Los Angeles while sunbathing in a deck chair.
Running her hands through her hair, the Mean Girls star posed for a number of snaps, showing off her legs in a pair of Daisy Dukes.

She teamed her look with a pair of white sandals and a form-fitting tie-dye T-shirt.
All in all, Lindsay looked more like someone on their summer holiday rather than on house arrest.
Probation officials were called out to Lohan's home this week after her electronic monitoring bracelet sounded an alarm.
But officers found the troubled actress, who is confined to her home in Venice, California, relaxing on her rooftop patio reading scripts, posing for photographs and watching her television.

The Machete star is under house arrest for 35 days after she was convicted of shoplifting a necklace from a Venice jewellery store in January.


As part of her punishment, 24-year-old Lohan has been ordered to wear a clunky electronic anklet that is connected to a base unit in her house and alerts the authorities if she leaves the premises or grounds.
It remains unclear as to why the bracelet was activated this week.

‘They came as part of standard procedure to make sure the monitoring equipment was working properly,’ Lohan’s spokesperson Steve Honig told the Los Angeles Times in a statement.

Under the terms of her house arrest, Lohan is allowed visitors but cannot consume alcohol or narcotics and is subject to random tests if officials desire, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore informed the newspaper.

Probation officials can also enter her home at any time to check she is in compliance with her probation and custody requirements, he added.
Lohan was sentenced to four months in jail after she pleaded no contest to stealing the $2,500 necklace, but due to jail overcrowding such non-violent offenders are eligible for house arrest, reported the newspaper.

She will serve half of her required time on home confinement, which works out to 35 days, along with 480 hours of community service split between a women's shelter in down town L.A.’s skid row, and janitorial duty at the L.A. County coroner office.
Of course Lindsay is no stranger to monitoring bracelets. She has worn a SCRAM tag before, which is activated if the wearer consumes alcohol.
Lindsay was ordered to wear the SCRAM bracelet as she was released from jail last year after failing two court ordered drugs tests that were part of her probation terms from a 2007 DUI case.
