Tess Daly outshines Strictly contestants

The new series of the X Factor may have started on ITV1 last Saturday night, but that can only mean one thing – Strictly Come Dancing is about to return too. And while all eyes should have been on the lineup of the show’s celebrity contestants when they were unveiled today, I couldn’t help but notice just how fabulous the show’s hostess Tess Daly was looking.

I’m not talking about her amazing post-baby weight figure or the related criticism she has endured for it, rather, the 38-year-old blonde bombshell looked absolutely stunning thanks to the very bold – and brave – designer dress she chose to wear.

Bright pink is certainly not my cup of tea, but given the occasion and the glitzy and glamorous nature of the show Tess stepped out to promote, she ticked all the style boxes on my list and even managed to upstage the contestants who are supposed to be at the centre of attention!

The mum-of-two accessorised the thigh-skimming minidress with cute capped sleeves with a very on-trend black and silver studded waist-cinching belt. She added a pair of black cut-out shoe boot heels to add just that extra bit of rock’n'roll edge, which looked fabulously edgy juxtaposed with the girly dress. And, to top the look off, Mrs Vernon Kay sported an oversized crocodile skin bowling bag, the sheer size of which made her look even more petite than she already is!

Like I said before, I’m not a huge fan of the pink sported here by Tess, but are there any colours that you simply refuse to cave in to?
