Her contemporary sartorial looks of late have been heavily influenced by 90s.

And Kourtney Kardashian, 40, continued to take inspiration from the decade on Thursday as she sported an ensemble likely to be seen in 1999’s The Matrix while grabbing lunch with a friend in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The E! star sported a sweeping brown leather coat that was not unlike the one favoured by the blockbuster’s central character, Neo, as her designer pal hilariously photobombed her leaving the restaurant.

The Poosh founder continued her futuristic fashion look with a pair of heavy black boots and complementing leggings.

In keeping with the Matrix-inspired theme, she accessorised her look with a pair of heavily tinted wraparound sunglasses while she chatted on her phone.

The reality star continued to command the pavement as she worked her brunette tresses into a sleek chignon and sported minimal make-up.

Kourtney’s appearance comes after Sofia Richie recently unfollowed the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star on Instagram.

For her part, Kourtney, the ex-girlfriend and baby momma of Sofia’s boyfriend Scott Disick, never followed Richie, who originally followed her in September.

Interestingly enough, despite no longer being connected via social media with Kourtney, Sofia does still follow her sister Kim, Kylie,and Khloe and her mom Kris Jenner.

The 21-year-old’s suspicious Instagram unfollow comes amid news that she will no longer film the family’s hit E! show. 

Sofia, who made her debut on Keeping Up With The Kardashians in October, revealed she isn’t going to return to the show when asked about it at an event earlier this week.

‘No,’ Sofia said about whether she will still film KUWTK. ‘Because I want to get into acting.’ 

At that same event Sofia talked about 2020 and her goals for the year: ‘2020 was my year of being like letting everything go and its like no fear. I feel like for a while I kind of held back on things because I was afraid of failure,’ she told Entertainment Tonight.

Adding: ‘So 2020 is like no fear. I’m going to be doing acting stuff soon and that was big for me to kind of get into because I just didn’t want to fail. I’m so glad I didn’t because great things are happening and I’m really excited about it.’

When asked by the outlet’s reporter if she’s auditioning and reading scripts, she said yes, and added ‘awesome things’ and divulged its TV roles. 

Trouble? Sofia first followed Kourtney back in September but it seemed that was short lived - she still follows sisters Kim, Kylie,and Khloe and Kris Jenner; Kourtney doesn't follow Richie

Sofia said: ‘The roles I’m reading right now are kind of similar to me so they are easy for me to play and I really, really enjoy it so I think I’ve been enjoying these roles similar to me.’  

Richie has been dating Kourtney’s ex Scott Disick since 2017, and after a getting off on a rocky foot with the Kardashians, they seemed to embrace her.

Kourtney has included Scott and Sofia on various family vacations over the last two years, and even invited Richie to the famed Kardashian Christmas Eve party.

While she was initially not on board with the young model due to her 15-year age difference with 36-year-old Disick, sources recently said that the Poosh founder had totally come around. 

Cordial: Richie got off to a rough start with Kourtney but the two smoothed things over so much so that Sofia made her debut on Keeping Up With The Kardashians in October - however she revealed this week she isn't going to return to the show so she can 'get into acting'
