Halle Berry was spotted on Friday walking alongside French beau Olivier Martinez on the trendy shopping strip Abbot Kinney in Venice Beach, California.
Not joining the pair was Halle's 4-year-old daughter Nahla, who has been caught in the middle of a nasty custody dispute with her father Gabriel Aubry.

Scoring some new clothes: Halle Berry and boyfriend Olivier Martinez strolled arm in arm as they shopped in Venice Beach, California on Friday

Olivier played the doting boyfriend, carrying several large bags as the couple of two years strolled arm in arm.
The Cloud Atlas actress was decidedly dressed down for the warm and sunny weather, wearing a loose grey poncho over an oversized white shirt and torn jeans matched casual cool with a large grey hobo bag and black strappy boots.
Her boyfriend and Dark Tide co-star matched her casual cool with a black leather jacked and grey T-shirt and jeans.

The 46-year-old's look was quite the departure from Sunday's fiasco at the Golden Globes, where the slender actress looked as through she was popping out of the bodice of her Versace dress.
The vivid pink-hued asymmetric gown polarized opinion among fashion critics as the normally glamorous star appeared out of proportion and even tried to pull off the 'Angelina Jolie' leg.
The couple have managed to keep out of headlines since last year's Thanksgiving tussle that left Halle's ex and father of her daughter Gabriel Aubry with a nasty series of bruises as well as a restraining order.

The 37-year-old French-Canadian model was initially charged, however those were later dropped.
The Oscar winner and Olivier both reportedly felt it would not be in Nahla's best interest to prosecute her father for the fight.
Halle and her ex have been engaged in a bitter custody battle with the Monster's Ball star and her French beau wanted to permanently move to Paris with Nahla.
