The brunette beauty wore her glossy tresses in tight ringlets and highlighted her pretty visage with a soft pallet of make-up, which was impeccably applied.

She accessorised with a simple black choker-style necklace and continued the all black theme with a slouchy clutch bag, no doubt packed full of her night out essentials.

The actress, who plays Carla Connor in the long-running soap, beamed with delight as she posed for pictures with her hand rested on her hip.
