Vogue Williams stuns in a summery floral print midi dress as she leads stars at Chelsea Flower Show event
Vogue Williams turned heads as she led the stars at the Penelope Chilvers x Kitten Grayson stand during the Chelsea Flower Show on Tuesday.
The Irish broadcaster, 39, looked incredible in a white midi dress adorned with delicate blue, pink, yellow, and green floral detailing.
The elegant ensemble featured bow-tie straps and a tie-up front, flowing into a flattering A-line skirt.
She added height with a pair of gold heels and carried her essentials in a chic shell-shaped handbag.
Vogue completed the look with layered gold jewellery and shielded her eyes behind a pair of classic black sunglasses.
The stunner appeared in high spirits as she posed up a storm for the cameras, and was later joined by fellow star Ashley James.

Ashley, 38, looked equally beautiful in a coordinating midi dress featuring purple, blue, and yellow floral detailing.
She completed her summery look with pink wedges, a woven handbag, and matching pink earrings.
Lady Amelia Windsor, Yomi Adegoke, Afua Hirsch, and Marissa Montgomery were also at the event.
The Chelsea Flower Show has long been one of the highlights of the annual royal calendar since the first event was held in 1912.
Organised by the Royal Horticultural Society in London's chicest borough, the garden show has historically been attended by senior royals - with everyone from the late Queen Elizabeth II and King Charles, to the Prince and Princess of Wales stopping by to smell the roses.
As it returned to the manicured lawns of the Royal Hospital of Chelsea for its 113th edition, however, reality TV stars and social media influencers far outnumbered the royals - with Charles, 76, and Camilla, 77, among the family's only representatives.
Experts noted that while these celebrities can sometimes up the glamour quotient, not all of them are familiar with the correct protocol, Britain's self-styled Queen of Etiquette Laura Windsor told MailOnline.
'Celebrities taking the spotlight, as well as influencers getting in the way with their Iphones can just get too much for those who are more interested in admiring the scene, leading to comments such as "Oh, not another celeb" or "I wish this person would stop taking 100 photos of the same flower!"
Yomi Adegoke and Afua Hirsch both appeared in great spirits as they stunned for the cameras at the event
'Discretion, nowadays, is what people want,' she continued, adding the focus should be solely on the display gardens.
The flower event comes after Vogue revealed she 'thought her life was over' after divorcing Westlife singer Brian McFadden on the latest installment of the Mail's 'The Life of Bryony' podcast.
In a candid conversation with Mail columnist Bryony Gordon, 'relationship girl' Vogue, reflected on her love life ahead of turning forty.
She remembered feeling as though she had 'ruined her life' in 2017 after her divorce aged 31 from Westlife singer Brian McFadden.
The Irish mother-of-three revealed her joy at having built a happy family life with Made in Chelsea star Spencer Matthews, 36, despite the constant 'outside noise' that surrounds their relationship.
'I am excited at turning forty', Vogue told the podcast.
'When you are 19 or 20, you think that 40-year-olds are really old and battered. Then you actually get there and you think, this is a really nice moment.
'In your thirties, you are still trying to figure stuff out. I remember being divorced at 31 and thinking, I've ruined my life. I am never going to have kids, I am never going to do what I always wanted to do.
'Then you see how your life actually starts to unfold – that's why it feels exciting to move into your forties.'
In her eagerly awaited autobiography Big Mouth, Vogue details her struggles with anxiety that have cast a shadow throughout her adulthood.
Vogue told Bryony she manages the disorder far better now, with a 'great' and supportive family behind her.
However, the model admitted that the 'noise' surrounding her marriage to TV star Spencer still manages to get under her skin.
Vogue and Spencer have been married since 2018 and share three children together, Theodore, Gigi, and Otto.

Prince William enjoys impromptu pint at the pub with locals after braving the rain for muddy Dartmoor visit
PRINCE William enjoyed an impromptu pint during a muddy visit to Dartmoor yesterday. The Duke of Cornwall braved heavy rain and wind to visit Royal Tor Bog, near Yelverton, Devon, and spoke to men and women working in collaboration to help restore the "special" landscape. 4 4 After working up a thirst, William headed to the Prince of Wales pub in the picturesque village of Princetown. He sipped on a local cider at the bar and chatted to locals before making his way home. The Prince's project will focus on a "coordinated public and private investment" to restore peatlands and upland mosaic habitats in the south Devon area. 'I'm keen to continue my father's work as well,' said William, who inherited responsibility for the land with the Duchy of Cornwall in 2022. 'For me it's about the impact, I want to see stuff actually happen. We've done the talking now, we've put the vision together, the design, now it's about the activation.' Pointing to an area of bog which has been restored, he added: 'Even though this is a small bit, we need to get more and more of this going on all around Dartmoor to bring it back to its former glory while still keeping the farming and everything else going.' The Prince spoke out after discussing a new 20-year plan to give fresh life to Dartmoor's wilderness while helping to protect it from climate change with a group including Tony Juniper, chair of Natural England and Phil Stocker, Chair of Dartmoor Land Use Management Group. As they chatted in the steady downpour, the Prince joked: 'I came to talk about the fires and a plan to re-wet peat!' Referring to the Landscape Vision, he said: 'To be able to bring everyone together, I think, is not only crucial to the whole thing but it sets a model for how it can be done elsewhere. "And that's what I love doing. Whatever we do here, other people can follow what we're doing. 'So much of it is local leadership and collaboration. If you put those two together, things can be adapted.' The Prince said not everyone believed the vision to restore the land within just two decades was possible. '[They said] 20 years, good luck, it's going to take longer than that! These things take time, they really do. "But at least if you set up a path and move in that direction, everyone will move in the same direction.' The Prince heard from Stocker how they had been 'making progress' in bringing different people on board with the plan. 'The one thing that has come through is the enthusiasm," Phil said. Morag Angus, of the South West Peatland Partnership, told William how the land they were looking at had become more barren and dry and was benefitting from a 're-wetting' process. She said afterwards: 'If someone like the Prince is coming down here, it just shows that he's thinking about it and how important is. "And I think it just galvanizes everyone and gets everyone on board and gets them coming here to talk about it, but also to make sure we action things and we make meaningful restoration happen. "See it happening, rather than just talking about it." 4 4

King presents new Colours to Coldstream Guards
King Charles has presented new Colours to the Coldstream Guards during a ceremony at Windsor Castle, marking the regiment's 375th anniversary. Troops from the 1st and 2nd Battalions paraded on Friday morning before the King's official birthday celebrations in London this weekend. The soldiers marched from Victoria Barracks through Windsor town centre, accompanied by the Band of the Coldstream Guards, before entering the castle. The old Colours were formally marched off to the sound of Auld Lang Syne. The youngest soldier on parade was 18, while the oldest was a 67-year-old veteran. Lieutenant Max Martin, 24, admitted he smirked as he was mentioned by the King during his address. He said: 'It was an absolutely incredible day. It caught me completely off guard - the first thing I thought about was my mum and dad in the stands and how excited they would have been to hear my name. 'I tried my best not to let out a grin, but as His Majesty pushed up the King's Colour and said good luck for tomorrow, I couldn't help but have a little smirk to myself.' He added: 'The eagle eyes of the Garrison Sergeant Major were watching me, so I tried to cover it up but I couldn't help myself.' Around 1,000 guests watched the event in the roasting sun inside the Quadrangle, with around another 100 members of the public gathered outside the castle gates trying to catch a glimpse. A traditional drumhead service followed, with regimental drums stacked to form a makeshift altar. The new Colours were laid on top and consecrated by the Chaplain-General. The King, who is Colonel-in-Chief of the regiment, touched each Colour before formally presenting them to the Guards. 'It gives me enormous pride, as your Colonel-in-Chief, to be able to present these new Colours to you today in the presence of the wider Regimental family,' he said. 'Each and every one of you on parade today is now part of that great legacy.' The new Colours display 44 of the regiment's 113 battle honours, ranging from Tangier in 1680 to the Gulf in 1991. They also bear the eight-pointed Star of the Order of the Garter and the King's Crown, featured for the first time in 70 years. 'These Colours, encompassing your richly deserved battle honours, are a gallant testament to the outstanding courage, fortitude and spirit that the Regiment has always displayed throughout our nation's history,' the King said. He also paid tribute to the families of serving soldiers, adding: 'I would like to offer my heartfelt thanks for your tremendous, unwavering support and encouragement.' The Coldstream Guards are the oldest continuously serving regiment in the British Army, founded in 1650 during the English Civil War. They serve both in frontline military operations and in ceremonial duties, including guarding royal residences. They have recently deployed to Iraq, supported training efforts in Ukraine, and delivered military instruction in West Africa, the Caribbean and the Middle East. 'You have done so much to support both Ukraine and the United Kingdom's own security,' the King said. After the presentation, the Colours were returned to the regiment's ensigns, who took up position in front of the parade. The Guards then gave three cheers and a Royal Salute before marching off. The King remained in the Quadrangle later in the day to meet serving guardsmen, families, veterans and the bereaved.
