Ellie Goulding wears bizarre horse-printed trousers and top at LFW party... before changing into glitzy red outfit to hang with beau Dougie Poynter at another bash

Like many fashion-obsessed stars, she has been doing her rounds of the parties as London Fashion Week kicks off.

And Ellie Goulding made sure to up her game in the style stakes as she attended two separate soirees on the first day of LFW, changing into two hugely different ensembles.

The 28-year-old singer was first seen at the official London Fashion Week Party hosted by Vogue UK Editor Alexandra Shulman, the US Ambassador Matthew Barzun and his wife Brooke.

But, instead of opting for a conservative look like many of the other guests - including Victoria Beckham and Cressida Bonas - the Burn hitmaker went for a decidedly quirky look.

She covered her toned running and gym-honed figure in co-ordinated separates with a difference: a pair of jogging bottom-style trousers and a large sweater, both items covered with horses.

However, thanks to the generous and chic cut of the bottoms and its matching top, the horse-printed black and white tracksuit ended up being quite the style win for the star.

Although much of her figure was covered in the oversized garments, Ellie - who has been incredibly busy this week working on the release of her new album Delirium - flashed her slim ankles as she teamed her clothing with a pair of classic black pointed court shoes.

Her blonde locks were scraped back into a neat and tidy high ponytail for the evening, while her face appeared to have been contoured with clever cosmetics to make her naturally pretty features glow 

She looked casually cool as she posed inside the high-end party, hosted by the Vogue editor at the American Ambassador's residence near Regent's Park in the capital.

But just a hop, skip and an outfit change later, Ellie had swapped her funky horses for an altogether more glamorous look, as she went along to the Alexander Wang store opening in Mayfair later in the night.

It was there that the British singer was joined by her long-term boyfriend Dougie Poynter, who posed happily alongside his lady love at the ultra-cool fashion bash at The Electric Carousel.

She flattered her warm skin tone in a ruby red ensemble, that included a glitzy striped t-shirt and a shiny metallic red pencil skirt.

Keeping it fuss-free, though, Ellie decided to maintain her cool updo for the second event of the night, a hairstyle that truly suits all outfits.

McBusted hunk Dougie, meanwhile, opted for a decidedly Parisian aesthetic as he went along to the Alexander Wang party, rocking a black and white striped t-shirt with black skinny jeans and a beret.

The 27-year-old rocker didn't seem to want to part from his girlfriend's side, and the two were seen posing for pictures with the man of the hour, Alexander Wang.

Also at the American designer's big night were the party-loving likes of Lily Allen - who took to the decks - Nick Grimshaw, Sadie Frost, Alice Dellal and Eliza Doolittle.

Ellie and Dougie have been a strong item since they hooked up in February 2014, and they have already started thinking about wedding plans, although they admit it'll be a little while longer before they walk down the aisle.

She revealed to Elle magazine earlier this summer that Calvin Harris, who Ellie recently love matched with her pal Taylor Swift, has already offered his DJ services for their big day.

Speaking to the magazine as June's cover girl, Ellie said: 'Calvin Harris has already offered to play at our wedding, not that we've organised one. But the offer has been made.'

Dougie has also hinted that a proposal could be in the offing.

Asked how he felt about Ellie claiming she was 'punching above her weight' in the relationship, Dougie told MailOnline: 'I mean, it's rubbish. She's beautiful and talented... just incredible.'

When pressed further on whether wedding bells could be the next step, he said with a smile: 'Well... I don't want to say too much. It would ruin the surprise.'

Meanwhile, Ellie has been working a jam-packed promotional schedule for the release of her new album Delirium.

This week she has also been forced to deny that one of the tracks on the record - On My Mind - was aimed at her ex-boyfriend Ed Sheeran, who famously penned a song of his own about her.

'I'm sorry to all the people that want it to be about someone - it's not, it's like a myth,' she told

She added, referencing her current beau Dougie and the lyrics that link to a man's body ink: 'I like guys with tattoos, my boyfriend has tattoos… but I don't mind. People can read into it however they want. It's fun to do that, I would do that too.'
