Just one day earlier, she spoke about the number one girl in her life - her daughter Matilda.

But on Tuesday, Michelle Williams spent some time with her other BFF - actress Busy Philipps.

The 36-year-old was spotted arm-in-arm with the actress, 37, as they made their way to the Madewell Pop Up in Beverly Hills.

Michelle was very much in high spirits during her catch-up with Busy, with neither unable to contain their smile as they strolled through the parking lot, practically attached at the hip.

The Blue Valentine actress kept her cool in a black and white dress, jean jacket, sandals, and swept her pixie style haircut across her forehead.

Her gal pal, meanwhile, opted for a slightly hippie chic look as she headed out in a loose burgundy-hued blouse teamed with ripped blue jeans.

She strode ahead in her pointed red heels while keeping her hairstyle low-key as well, pulling a good portion of her hair back into a messy yet stylish little bun.

Even after a night out attending the premiere of Manchester By The Sea together, the ladies appeared refreshed and radiant while taking in the sunshine.

Busy took to Instagram less than 24 hours earlier to share a photo of Michelle giving her a kiss on the cheek during the premiere.

'Love her so,' the actress wrote in the photo.

She struck a more playful tone in the caption of the photo, which read: 'Went to support my sweet bff Michelle at her new movie tonight and got a whole plate of mini crab cakes smushed into me at the after party! THIS IS WHO I AM.'

Michelle, meanwhile, did not appear to be joined that evening by her eleven-year-old daughter Matilda, whose father is the late actor Heath Ledger.

But that doesn't mean the youngster was far from mind.

Speaking with Us Weekly, the star of Manchester By The Sea said her little girl was fond of all animals, 'real ones and stuffed.'

'We have a zoo in our apartment,' she said in jest. 'We just added a cat to our dog and fish. I figure that’s like a small petting zoo.'

She even joked about seeing a potential business opportunity in the petting zoo: 'I could get at least get 50 cents a visit.'

The best part of parenthood for Michelle, however, was 'just hearing that word: Mama.'

Matilda is the only child of Michelle and Heath, who fell in love while working together on their film Brokeback Mountain.

The pair started dating in 2004 and welcomed their daughter in October of the following year.

Michelle and Heath ended their relationship in September 2007, four months before he died at the age of 28 from cardiac arrest brought on by prescription drug intoxication.
