Unlike many of her The Only Way Is Essex co-stars, she’s known for her eclectic sense of style and on-trend outfits.

And now Lydia Bright has put her skills to good use, by presenting a series of fashion shows in Birmingham on Saturday.

The 21-year-old reality star was hosting the shows at the Birmingham Bullring shopping centre, which is host to a weekend of fashion, food and shopping.

Lydia looked fresh in a black knee-length Karen Millen dress with a sparkling Forever 21 jacket and tall high heels, adding to her petite frame.

She introduced each show as it began and sat prominently in the front row as fans snapped pictures of the blonde reality star on their camera-phones.

Lydia said: ‘It’s been such an exciting day at Bullring and I’ve loved being a part of The Show: Enchanted. Birmingham has so much to offer in terms of fashion and shopping and after seeing all of the AW12 trends I can’t wait to hit the shops!’

She added: ‘The Bullring show Enchanted was a great chance
for everyone to get involved with the fun of fashion for free. The show was
imaginative, quirky and all high street so very affordable.’

The Enchanted fashion shows featured the latest trends from autumn/winter 2012.

The event overview stated: ‘Enchanted will take you on a magical journey through the new season’s trends from regal velvets and rich dark lace, to tweeds, edgy tailored leather and beyond.’

Ahead of her appearance to host the fashion shows, Lydia tweeted out to her fans to encourage them to attend.

She tweeted: ‘I’m in Birmingham today @bullring, come see me host The Show: #enchanted. 11am, 1pm, 3pm & 5pm’

On Friday Lydia was spotted with boyfriend Tom Kilbey as the pair arrived to film the beginning of the seventh series of TOWIE.

Lydia looked undeniably stylish at Orsett Hall in Essex, wearing a stone-coloured jacket dress by Jovonnista at Jovonna London with matching knee-high boots.

The couple sported matching blow-dried hairstyles as they arrived for filming, which airs on Sunday night on ITV2 at 10pm.
