Lindsay looks all white! Lohan celebrates 25th birthday with quiet dinner but day spoiled with parking ticket

Lindsay Lohan put all of her troubles behind her last night as she celebrated her 25th birthday and looked fabulous while doing it.

The Mean Girls actress went for a low-key dinner in Malibu, California with her sister Ali, brother Michael Jr., and a small group of friends.

Wearing a dazzling white mini dress and baby pink peep toe heels, the Mean Girls star looked on good form with her long tanned legs on show.

Lindsay and her party crew seemed to have enjoyed their evening at Geoffrey's restaurant and one friend was seen carting a birthday cake box out of the venue so the actress could continue to feast on the sweet treat later.

She celebrated in a more subdued way than expected, opting for the restaurant that overlooks the Pacific and has amazing views of the ocean.

One gift Lindsay reportedly received is a vacation to Costa Rica courtesy of her father Michael Lohan, according to the New York Daily News.

He said that he bought it for his oldest daughter so she could 'get away from the spotlight and relax' and her mother Dina and siblings would also be on the vacation.

But Lindsay's birthday did not get off to a great start as she received an unwanted gift in the form of a parking ticket outside her Venice, California home.

She had parked her car illegally in an alley near her home where the parking warden spotted it and left the envelope containing the fine on her windscreen.

Lindsay has jumped straight into her 480 hours of community service that she has to undertake to complete her punishment.

She wrote on Twitter after her first session: ''Had a great day today at the Downtown Women's Center... Thank you everyone, staff, volunteers, and the amazing women I get to see for being so kind.'

Lindsay took a box of muffins for the women and told TMZ that she was 'excited to start community service and focus on her work.'

The actress says she wants to get back to work too but will have to look for other projects to keep her occupied as production on the John Gotti biopic has been delayed until next year while the script is being re-written.

Lindsay will also have to complete anti-shoplifting classes and psychological therapy as part of her release.
