She added extra height to her look with scarlet stilettos.

Her blonde bob was styled in tousled waves while her pretty features were enhanced with smoky shadow and a slick of rose lipgloss.

Adding extra drama to her look, the Blue Jasmine star slipped on an elegant cape emblazoned with a striking red and blue heart print design as she posed.   

Cate is mother to sons Dashiell John, 16, Roman Robert, 14, Ignatius Martin, 10, and adopted daughter Edith, four, with husband Andrew Upton, 52.

Oscar-winning actress Cate recently spoke to host Jonathan Ross about living in the UK after moving from her native Australia in recent years.

She joked: ‘I came back just in time for Brexit. It’s all my fault!’  

On the real reason she has moved to the UK, she said: ‘I just think that in my country you walk into a field and you’re going to be killed by some kind of snake or accosted by a huge [animal.] It’s much more benign here… pigs, chickens.’ 

Cate previously revealed her feelings about the prospect of her children following in her footsteps.

She told Harper’s Bazaar this month: ‘I think if I was in a different profession, if I was a lawyer, or a doctor, or an architect, maybe, or if I had a trade that I could actually use in the Armageddon, then there would be a sense that that would be a great and expected thing.
