Kate kept her look up-to-date with an off the shoulder bardot top, which drew attention to her delicate and narrow frame.
And she maintained her chic black look as she accessorised with some stylish ankle boots and an patent leather handbag, which she toted proudly on the crutch of her arm.
The brunette beauty looked enviably tanned in the dark ensemble and opted to complement her sun-kissed glow with a bronze smokey eyeshadow and carefully placed contouring on her cheeks.

Keeping her look low-key she scraped her glossy locks away from her face and tied them up into a messy high-ponytail.
Kate was joined by an equally stylish gal pal, who held her hand as they walked along the street following their meal at Craig's.
She followed her friend's dark trend as she opted to wear a black chiffon shirt, which was adorned with delicate polka dots.

Kate can currently be seen in Love & Friendship which has received favourable reviews.
But whilst she has starred in several successful movies over her long and varied career, the Pearl Harbor star recently confessed that she suffered from panic attacks and anxiety early in her career.
Reflecting on travelling to New York for a role in the 1998 film The Last Days of Disco, the brunette beauty admitted she was overwhelmed with fear about going alone.
Speaking to LA Confidential she 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."'
But luckily for the star she managed to adjust to moving cities as she explained: 'I sort of let off into the unknown world of Whit Stillman and disco dancing...and I'm really glad I did.'
