Allure and sexuality are a given for any Bond girl, but that appeal was lost on Gemma Arterton as she stepped out in Hollywood on Sunday.

The actress looked rather frumpy in a baggy shirt and murky brown jeans on Melrose Avenue.

Doing a spot of shopping, one can only hope she was restocking her wardrobe with more stylish attire.

Frumpy: Gemma Arterton heads out in Hollywood looking less like her glamorous self

Looking like the perfect candidate to go in front of the panel on E!’s Fashion Police, Gemma’s usual public appearance is far more put together.

But as red carpet events usually see the actress benefit from a stylist, hairdresser and make-up artist, the former Bond girl showed just how reliant some stars are upon their beauty teams.

Currently, Gemma is awaiting the release of her new Gothic thriller Byzantium.

She plays vampire Clara who is mother to Eleanor - played by Saoirse Ronan.

For the last 200 years, the immortal pair have been running from their past, and funding their present through Clara's prostitution.

But Eleanor's weariness at their lonely life causes her to share their supernatural story to a male friend, only for it to lead the danger of their past right to them, and threaten their future.

Done up: Elegant and chic, Gemma's character wouldn't be caught out in murky brown jeans

Luckily Gemma wasn't in charge of the costuming for her role that demands the wardrobe of a sultry seductress.

Costume designer Consolata Boyle doesn't disappoint with her array of corseted dresses and lingerie that showcase the vampire mother's journey through time but still referring to her historic beginnings in the 19th Century.

From Neil Jordan - the director who brought Anne Rice's novel Interview With A Vampire to life in 1994 - Byzantium is expected in UK cinemas on May 31st.

Olga Kurylenko rose to fame with the help of a series of steamy roles early in her film career.

But the 32-year-old Bond girl was the picture of modesty on a trip to the beach in Florida this weekend with her boyfriend and Magic City co-star Danny Huston.

The couple stepped out on Miami Beach with Huston's ten-year-old daughter Stella and their pet beagle.

Olga, who starred as Bond girl Camille Montes the 2008 film Quantum of Solace, wore a pretty purple cotton strapless dress over a black bikini.

Smiling as she walked next to Danny, 50, the Russian-born actress carried a straw trilby hat and wore dark shades, her hair swept up into a bun.

Danny, the son of legendary director John Huston, looked dapper in a white long-sleeved cotton shirt over board shorts.

He was barefoot and wore a wide-brimmed Panama hat and sunglasses.

Dancing queen: Olga plays a showgirl in new TV show Magic City, where she will put her dancing skills to use

The couple were earlier seen lounging on deck chairs under an umbrella on the beach, with Olga showing off her enviable figure in a tiny black string bikini.

The beautiful brunette will next year be seen alongside Tom Cruise in sci-fi movie Oblivion.

She has also been cast as a showgirl in new TV show Magic City, where she will put her dancing skills to use.

Although Olga left her dancing behind in her teens, she takes it up again for several episodes in Season 2 of Magic City, slated to screen in 2013.

Olga admitted she was actually ask to audition for the role as the more buxom, younger Lily Diamond (played by Jessica Marais), but wanted to steer away from being typecast in the obviously sexy roles.

Instead she was cast as former showgirl Vera - the wife of Miramar Playa hotel Ike Evans (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) in 1959 Miami.

In a recent interview with Complex magazine she revealed: 'It would have been so easy for me to fall into that and go the Lily route.

'I really have to protect myself. At this point, I shouldn’t be doing those kinds of overly sexy, frequently naked roles.'

Huston plays a character called Ben Diamond in the period drama, a suntanned sociopath known as the Butcher.

Both Kurylenka and Huston have been married twice before.
