But Michelle Keegan managed to do just that as she hit the shops for a spot of Christmas shopping on Friday in a fur coat and matching ear-muffs.
The Coronation Street star obviously wasn't taking any chances with the biting cold, making sure that she was wrapped up as she wandered around the streets of Manchester.

Looking younger than her age, Michelle went completely make-up free for the shopping trip, showing off her flawless complexion and perfectly plucked eye brows.
The actress didn't exactly look like she was trying to go incognito in outfit, standing out as she made her way through Manchester to pick up some gifts in the run up to Christmas Day.

The star used the hefty ear-muffs to keep her long, glossy locks off her face, wearing them in loose waves which fell down over her shoulders.
Although her ex-fiancé Max George is rumoured to be in a new relationship with Lindsay Lohan, Michelle seemed in good spirits, smiling as she walked along clutching an oversized shopper and an armful of store bags.
