If there's one thing Kimberley Garner knows how to do well it's to garner attention, such was the case when she was wandering in Chelsea in a daring outfit more suited to mid-summer.
With London suddenly coming alive with beams of warming sunshine, 24-year-old Kimberley was making the most of it - and eager to let her long legs be seen.
The former Made In Chelsea star took to the Kings Road in a striped skort skirt which she teamed with red heels and a red handbag for an outfit that already screamed fun in the sun.

It's been a busy time for the multitasker who has just moved house and is heading to LA on Friday.
'All packed. just booked a VERY last minute trip to L! Leave first thing in the morning :)' she tweeted on Thursday ahead of her trip to the US.
Two days earlier she asked her 54000 followers 'can anyone recommend where's fun to go dancing in LA? Thank you :)
One of her admirers told her wryly to simply 'find some rain, dance in the street'.

The property heiress recently unveiled her new Spring swimwear range, realising a childhood dream by launching her first swimwear collection in 2013.
Kimberley admits the warm reception it received prompted her to launch a second range.
She started work on the extensive Kimberley London range close to a year ago, shortly after her debut collection – described at the time as 'A British take on the Brazilian' and 'Beautiful but affordable for young women' – won praise for their quality.

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, she said: 'I've wanted to design swimwear since I was 12 and it's always been a dream of mine. I brought out a collection last year and I was amazed by the reception, so about 8 months ago I started designing the new collection. I wanted it be more intricately designed, more detailed.'
For her range, Kimberley models the new line of cut-out swimsuits and bikinis across a range of coastal locations – but she adopted a more relaxed stance when it came to her appearance prior to the shoot, and with good reason.
'This year I was almost a stone heavier than I was last year, but I wanted to inspire woman to be comfortable with their appearance,' she said. 'I didn't diet for this shoot – I dieted last year but I decided not to. I love my curves.'

Kimberley will follow up the Spring range with a Summer collection, which she admits will be a more playful affair than the embellished creations – designed to embrace elegance, freedom and fun' – she models here.
She said: 'I've got a summer collection coming out that's a bit more cheeky, but this one's elegant. I wanted to focus on flattering the woman's body, a bit like the little black dress where you put it on and you feel like a million dollars.'
Kimberley's design success comes after her decision to walk away from Made In Chelsea and Kimberley admits she has little contact with her former co-stars.
'I've been so busy,' she admits. 'We kept in touch during the shoot but it's been two years since I left.'
