More time: Lindsay Lohan, pictured here arriving at an LA court in a leather dress today, has been granted 15 extra days to consider her plea deal
Lindsay Lohan sasyahed back into court today for yet another hearing in her felony theft case.
The 24-year-old actress, whose courtroom attire attracts as much attention as her legal woes, this time arrived in a $725 leather sheath by Raquel Allegra - a designer famous for customising T-shirts once worn by inmates of LA County Jail.
Inside the courtroom, she was given one last chance to accept a plea deal in the case which sees her accused of stealing a necklace from a Venice jewellery store.
She could be back in court March 25 if she decides to accept a plea agreement but if not, a hearing will be held next month to determine if there is enough evidence for her to stand trial.

On that date she could also be jailed for violating her probation - and stay behind bars until the start of her trial.
During a short hearing at the Airport Branch Courthouse, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Keith L. Schwartz scheduled a preliminary hearing for April 22 before fellow Judge Stephanie Sautner.
But Schwartz also tentatively scheduled a hearing in his court for March 25 - but said that hearing would be held only if the 24-year-old star was prepared to enter into a plea agreement, which would likely lead to jail time.

If no plea agreement is reached, the April 22 court date will also include a hearing to determine if Lohan violated her probation in a 2007 misdemeanor DUI case.
Schwartz pleaded with attorneys to maintain confidentiality in the case, complaining that there were persistent leaks to media outlets.
The actress was 5 minutes late for the court appearance.
At a Feb. 23 hearing, Judge Schwartz told the Mean Girls star that she would face a preliminary hearing before Judge Stephanie Sautner if she didn't settle the case accusing her of a felony count of grand theft.

Sautner would also conduct a hearing to determine if Lohan had violated her probation in a 2007 misdemeanor DUI case, Schwartz said last month.
Lohan is accused of walking out of Kamofie & Co. on Abbot Kinney Boulevard on Jan. 22 with a necklace valued at $2,500.
She was charged Feb. 9 and is free on $40,000 bail.
The jewellery store has since come under fire for releasing surveillance videotape of the actress inside the shop the day she allegedly stole the necklace. The store owners, Geoff and Sofia Kaman, announced Wednesday they plan to eventually auction off the necklace and donate the proceeds to charity.
At last month's hearing, Schwartz told Lohan that she would face 'jail time' if she pleaded guilty or no 'contest in his courtroom.
'The issue is what it is,' the judge said of the amount of jail time.

Schwartz said Deputy District Attorney Danette Meyers had given Lohan's attorney, Shawn Holley, 'an offer' in chambers to resolve the case and had 'very clearly' laid out their position on this case, but publicly stated his doubts that Lohan would take the proposed deal.
'I get the impression you're not going to accept the D.A.'s offer,' he told Lohan, vowing to treat her the same as he treated any other defendants who appear before him.
A day after the charge was filed against her, Lohan issued a denial via Twitter, writing, 'fyi -- I would never steal, in case people are wondering.'
