Michelle Keegan shared a stunning snapshot of herself on Tuesday, basking in the sunshine and looking incredibly stylish to boot. The 37-year-old, who recently gave birth to her first child, Palma, looked stunning in the elite combo, which is perfect for the heatwave the UK is experiencing right now.

The former Coronation Street star wore a simple, black vest top and a stunning monochrome pencil skirt made in an uber-flattering, jersey material. It's the ideal item to wear for a heatwave as it's super light and airy, yet still smart. Bingo! The Ten Pound Poms actress was also cuddling her Dachshund Phoebe in the picture, and captioned "LOML', which stands for 'love of my life'.

This is the second incredible outfit the new mum has worn in the past week. On Thursday, Michelle and her husband Mark enjoyed their very first date night. The pair looked spectacular for their romantic outing to the London hotel, the Corinthia, with Mark rocking a suave tuxedo, while Michelle blew us away with her glamorous getup.
