As for her hair 'do, the British-born beauty kept it chic and simple, slicking back her curly strands into a stylish high ponytail.

Keeping the accessories to a minimum, the actress added some glamour with her sparkling studded earrings and touched up her radiant complexion with a smoky coat of eyeshadow and dark blush.

She added another shimmery pop of colour with her baby pink lip gloss.

Kate has starred in countless films, including Pearl Harbor, Click, and the Underworld series.

Yet it wasn't always smooth sailing in her career, with the actress admitting to the magazine that she suffered panic attacks and anxiety early in her career.

Reflecting on travelling to New York solo for a role in the 1998 film The Last Days of Disco, the actress remembered thinking, '"Oh my God, none of my friends are free, my boyfriend's busy, and my mom can't come"'.

'"I have to go to New York and be by myself,"' she added.

But luckily, the change of pace seemed to benefit the Pearl Harbor actress.

'So I sort of let off into the unknown world of Whit Stillman and disco dancing...and I'm really glad I did,' she added.

Kate will next return to her role of Selene in the upcoming Underworld: Blood Wars film, which is now in post-production and scheduled for release later this year.

She also stars in the thriller The Disappointments Room, which is now complete and also stars Lucas Till.
