She's a Grease fan too! Michelle Keegan slips her derriere into Sandy's spray on leggings at the Inside Soap Awards party
|
The 25-year-old actress appeared to have taken inspiration from Olivia Newton-John's style in hit Seventies film Grease, and looked even better than Jessica.
As she arrived at the Inside Soap Awards launch party in Manchester, the pretty brunette posed on the red carpet showing off her enviable figure.

Taking inspiration: Michelle's leggings looked very similar to the ones that Olivia Newton-John wore in 1978's Grease
However, rather than copy Sandy Olsson's look completely, Michelle teamed her £70 black American Apparel leggings with a sheer white shirt that showed off her bra.
She covered up in a black cropped jacket and elongated her pins in a pair of black peep-toe stilettos.
Michelle, who plays Tina McIntyre in Coronation Street, completed her look with a black studded clutch bag and minimal make-up as she arrived at Manchester eatery Rosso alongside various other soap stars.
Her co-star Kym Marsh, who portrays Michelle Connor in the ITV1 soap, also opted to wear black in the form of a short sleeveless dress.

Despite it being July, the mother-of-two teamed the garment with black opaque tights, matching heels and a thin grey leopard print waist belt.
However, the dark-haired star was upstaged by another Corrie female star - Catherine Tyldesley.
The 28-year-old looked stunning wearing a bright red knee-length dress and black heels.
The blonde star matched her lipstick to the fitted garment and pulled her best pout for the cameras.

Catherine completed her look with a black quilted Chanel handbag and simple earrings as she made her way inside the event that was sponsored by Boohoo.com.
But not everyone from the cobbles was in the mood to make such a bold statement, and Jennie McAlpine decided to leave the glamour to the other ladies.
The 28-year-old actress looked rather dressed down in a navy and cream dress which she wore with black tights, orange suede shoes and an unflattering beige jacket.

The redhead had pulled her curly hair up into a messy bun and stood with her hands by her side as she had her photo taken.
As she made her way inside the restaurant, it was time for the men to arrive and Ian Puleston-Davies was representing Coronation Street for the males.
However, he also hadn't made much effort and turned up wearing jeans, brown scuffed boots and a grey shirt.

But there was one male star who looked preened to perfection and that was former TOWIE star Mark Wright.
The 25-year-old looked smart in burgundy skinny trousers and a navy blue shirt which he wore with matching boots.
The reality TV star spent time posing with fans outside the venue before making his way in, and was closely followed by footballer Rio Ferdinand.

The Manchester United player wore light blue trousers, a white shirt and a smart grey blazer but looked miserable as he posed for photos.
The launch party was being held in Manchester ahead of the awards which will be held in London on September 24.
Perhaps tonight's celebrations weren't so wild as Michelle was pictured leaving still looking as fresh faced and as fabulous as when she'd arrived.
The actress was still posing as she left the restaurant and was approached by fans who of course wanted to have their photo taken with her.
