She might have crawled in in the early hours following her late night/early morning with ex boyfriend Jude Law at notorious London nightclub The Box – but you’d never know to see Lily Cole this evening.
The 22-year-old model turned actress was looking fresh as a daisy in a daffodil yellow mini dress, silver Pocohontas style headband and black and white two-tone stiletto sandals as she rocked up at the Empire Film Awards.
This was despite Lily being seen leaving the club to go home at 3.40am this morning with 38-year-old Law leaving on his own 10 minutes later. Â

friend and fellow British beauty Keira Knightley, who looked elegant in a

Meanwhile, engaged Girls Aloud star – and like Cole, newly brunette – Sarah Harding was wearing a dramatic backless black net and cream lace minidress with huge puffed satin shoulders.
