Friends in high places: Nicole Scherzinger is lovely in lace... but the Lewis accompanying her to pal's birthday bash is Leona not Hamilton
|
But no doubt Nicole Scherzinger and Leona Lewis would have stolen the attention away from the birthday boy with their arresting outfit choices as they hit central London on Tuesday night.
The X Factor judge complemented her petite frame in a pretty lace frock for the star-studded dinner party, which took place at Annabel's private members club.
Arresting looks: Nicole Scherzinger looked lovely in lace, while Leona Lewis opted for a bold cobalt and red ensemble, as they attended a pal's birthday party
Nicole trod the fine line between racy and elegant in the dress, which was long-sleeved and knee-length - but the slip underneath was short and featured a low-cut neckline.
The 34-year-old completed her look by sweeping her jet-black locks into a braid down her back and sporting a pair of black peep toe pumps.
The star looked remarkably refreshed considering she was fighting jet lag as she touched down following a long flight from Los Angeles earlier in the afternoon.
All eyes on her: The party was for billionaire Richard Caring's son Ben but no doubt Nicole's arresting outfit would have made her the centre of attention
Meanwhile, Leona opted for a colourful ensemble as she attended the exclusive bash, teaming a cobalt blue velvet jacket with a bright red dress featuring a daring peephole neckline, purple stilettos and a yellow snakeskin clutch bag.
A slick of red lipstick and her brunette locks tumbling around her shoulders finished off the singer's party look.
But the musical superstars were by no means the only celebrities in attendance at the star-studded event.

Hollywood actress Tara Reid looked happy and relaxed as she left the club, wearing a yellow gold minidress and a black fur coat, with her bright blonde locks worn loose around her shoulders.
Elsewhere, Arun Nayer posed alongside a brunette beauty who bore more than a passing resemblance to his ex-wife Elizabeth Hurley, while Gary and Danielle Lineker put on an amorous display leaving the club with their arms wrapped around each other.

The reality TV world was represented in the form of The Voice star Bo Bruce, who looked stylish in a chic black ensemble, which she teamed with her trademark quiff and a tan crocodile skin clutch bag.
Comedian Leigh Francis made a rare appearance as himself, leaving his Keith Lemon alter-ego at home for the evening as he stepped out with his stunning wife Jill Carter.
Meanwhile, Nancy Dell'Olio proved to be the belle of the ball, dancing up a storm in a sequinned minidress alongside singer Beverly Knight, who showcased her curves in a plunging aqua halterneck dress.

And with a wealth of celebrity chums turning out to celebrate his special day, it's no wonder birthday boy Ben couldn't keep the smile off his face as he cuddled up to his gorgeous wife, Elle, who looked stunning in a grey bandage dress.
Annabel's was the obvious choice of venue for the birthday bash, with Ben's billionaire businessman father, Richard Caring, owning the private members club among his portfolio of investments.

It will be the Formula One driver's first race since confirming he will leave his current McLaren team to join Mercedes next season.
He currently stands in fourth place in the 2012 Formula One rankings, with six races left to go.

Was that part of the dress code? Sophie Anderton and Jo Wood go braless as they attend the same birthday party
|
They both made their careers from being models, so it's no wonder Sophie Anderton and Jo Wood are confident when it comes to their bodies.
The famous ladies are so much so, that they even attended a birthday party on Tuesday night wearing no bra and flashing perhaps a little more than they intended to.
As they arrived at Ben Carey's birthday bash at Annabel's in London, the duo accidentally bared their chests in risqué outfits.
Oops! Sophie Anderton (L) and Jo Wood show off more than they intended to as they arrived at Ben Caring's birthday party
Anderton, 35, chose to wear a dark teal starppy dress and could have got away with wearing a strapless bra underneath but she obviously felt the need not to.
As she posed for photos outside the venue, her breasts could clearly be seen through the sheer fabric, but she didn't seem to care.
However, it seems that Anderton's outfit had not been planned as she tweeted yesterday: 'Off to Annabels tonights @nixalina for the big birthday bash......what to wear?????'
Feeling risqué: The brunette didn't seem bothered about the fact that she was flashing her chest in her teal dress
Good times: Sophie looked in good spirits as she arrived with a female friend
The slender brunette teamed her revealing dress with black studded ankle boots, gold earrings and a matching cuff bangle.
Wood, 57, opted against showing off her legs as well as her chest, and stuck to wearing all black.
The blonde star teamed her see-through top with a pair of leather trousers, heels and a gold printed scarf.

We are family! Wood was joined by her sons Jamie and Tyrone at the party
She was joined by her sons, Jamie and Tyrone, at the party which celebrated Ben Caring's special day.
Ben is the son of Richard Caring, who is the owner of The Ivy restaurant and one of Britain's richest men.
Other guests at the party included X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger, singer Leona Lewis and couple Gary and Danielle Lineker.
