She recently revealed that she’s enjoying being single and that when she goes out it’s not to find a man.

So it’s no surprise that Mollie King is making the most of the party scene when she’s not busy promoting The Saturdays' new reality show.

The colour didn’t stop at her dress though as she added even more of a pop to her outfit with a pair of open-toe red heels for the event held at Shoreditch House. 

The pretty singer’s blonde hair was styled in loose waves, while she kept her make-up relatively simple with dark eyes.

She continued: 'I’m enjoying being single and I’m definitely not gagging to be in another relationship. When I go out, I’m not going out to find a man; I’m going out to dance the night away with my best friends.'
