She opted for an uncharacteristically
grungy and casual look as she arrived at the Radio 1 studios bright and
early on Tuesday morning.
But
by the afternoon, Michelle Keegan had well and truly transformed into
the belle of the red carpet as she posed up a storm at the 2013 TRIC
Awards at London's Grosvenor House Hotel.
Preened
and polished to perfection, the 25-year-old actress dazzled in a chic
and sophisticated midnight blue midi-dress as she joined the great and
good of the television world for an afternoon of celebrations.

midnight blue midi-dress as she posed on the red carpet at the 2013 TRIC
Awards at London's Grosvenor House Hotel on Tuesday afternoon
Featuring
black satin detailing around the neckline and waist, the Coronation
Street star's elegant gown showed off her tiny waist and showstopping
curves to perfection.
Although Michelle's choice of
dress was somewhat demure, as she turned around to make her way in to
the exclusive London hotel, she showed off a daring split up the back of
the garment.
The soap
beauty - who is dating Take Me Out: The Gossip presenter Mark Wright -
kept the rest of her look relatively simple, accessorising with a pair
of towering black platform peep-toe heels, dramatic silver bangles and a
fuchsia clutch bag.

A slick of coral lipstick to
accentuate her stunning natural beauty and her long raven locks falling
in bouncy waves down her back completed Michelle's red carpet look.
The
brunette bombshell was joined at the 2013 TRIC Awards by a whole host
of Coronation Street co-stars past and present, including Helen
Flanagan, Georgia May Foote, Catherine Tyldesley and Natalie Gumede.
Meanwhile,
Michelle seemed to have discussed the dress code for the afternoon with
boyfriend Mark's sister Jessica Wright, who also posed up a storm on
the red carpet in a stylish and sophisticated midnight blue midi-dress.

Ditching her usual radioactive
fake tan and penchant for bodycon dresses, the 27-year-old reality star
looked the picture of elegance and grace in her pretty lace number as
she posed alongside her TOWIE co-star boyfriend, Ricky Rayment.
Although
she undoubtedly looked absolutely showstopping on the red carpet at the
TRIC Awards, Michelle looked uncharacteristically casual as she arrived
at the Radio 1 studios on Tuesday morning wearing a bright pink and green neon beanie hat.
The Corrie beauty teamed her attention-grabbing headgear by ZAINI Hats with a low-key ensemble for her early morning wake-up call.

Michelle
teamed a black leather and zip-detail jacket with a pair of skinny
jeans, biker boots and an oatmeal-coloured knitted jumper by AX Paris as
she arrived at the BBC's central London studios.
Flashing
her bright white smile, which offset her deep tan, the star breezed
into the building where she chatted to Breakfast Show host, Nick
Grimshaw.
The model
kept her make-up toned-down, showcasing her stunning natural beauty with
just a slick of mascara and a hint of nude lip shine.
Made an effort: Michelle sports a face full of
natural-looking make-up, having obviously made an effort for the early
morning show

worried about being spotted in the attention-grabbing hat, paired with a
dark outfit

Michelle obviously had a good time
with 'Grimmers', writing on her Twitter page after their early morning
meeting: 'Thankyou @grimmers @BBCR1 had a right laugh, now on my way to
@itvthismorning #hamburger xx'
The
Coronation Street star clearly had a long day of interviews ahead of
her, obviously taking the promotion of her ITV1 soap very seriously.
But
in spite of the early start and her heavy night on Saturday, the young
actress seemed on top form, grinning as she posted a picture of herself
and the breakfast DJ on Twitter.
