Pearly queen: Nicola Roberts channels London's pearly king and queen tradition as she attends the Mulberry show at London Fashion week today
She's been turning heads all weekend at London Fashion Week with her bang on-trend sense of style, but Nicola Roberts outshone the competition at the Mulberry fashion show today, quite literally.
The fashionable Girls Aloud singer arrived at London's Claridge's Hotel wearing a very distinctive pearly queen-style coat emblazoned with hundreds of shiny buttons.
No wonder the pale-skinned beauty needed her enormous bug-eyed sunglasses to protect her delicate complexion from the glare!
The 25-year-old singer lit up the otherwise grey afternoon and looked a picture of elegance with her three-quarter length sleeves and ribbon belt nipping her in at the waist.
She completed her fashion-forward ensemble with bare legs, simple black pumps and an elegant black clutch bag with her perfectly teased red hair flowing around her shoulders.
The Mulberry show was the hottest ticket in town today and the quintessentially English fashion house attracted a bevy of stars to see their Autumn/Winter 2011 collection.
Where's the sun? Nicola Roberts wasn't taking any chances of catching any sunlight today as she attended the Mulberry show at Claridge's Hotel. The pale beauty's bug eyed sunglasses ensured she was in the shade
Giving Nicola a run for her money was New York fashionista and style-rival Olivia Palermo who arrived all smiles wearing a pleated pink mini skirt teamed with a stone-coloured blazer which she topped with a shearling duffel coat thrown casually over her shoulders.
The reality TV star of The City, who is a regular on the fashion circuit, did not forget to pay homage to her hosts either, carrying an over-sized Mulberry satchel to finish off her look.
Brit presenter Fearne Cotton was engrossed on her telephone as she arrived at the show wearing a slightly dowdy-looking ankle-length dress that was saved by her edgy biker boots and boyfriend-style blazer.

Also attending the show was quirky singer Marina from Marina and The Diamonds who looked delighted with her colour-popping blue cropped leather jacket.
Her otherwise casual looked was given a boost by her bright tomato-coloured painted nails and distinctive round turquoise sunglasses.
On what was a drizzly and grey day in London, she certainly wasn't hiding from the sun, so perhaps she had already spotted Nicola's pearly coat gleaming in the distance.

But Nicola Roberts wasn't the only flame-haired beauty to attend the show. New girl on the block and Dr Who star Karen Gillan arrived at the show looking like she was heading to the office.
The actress looked elegant in her cream knee-length shirt dress, which she topped-off with a simple brown blazer.
With five more days of London Fashion Week to go, the fashion swords have certainly been drawn. Let battle commence!
