Amber Sherlock hit the headlines last month when she erupted at colleague Julie Snook over her choice of outfit.  

The newsreader demanded her Channel Nine co-worker put a jacket on following a wardrobe malfunction that left both presenters and their guest all dressed in white. 

And during the chat room segment on Nine News Now on Monday, the 41-year-old appeared on screen with guest Kellie Alderman in a bizarre blue jacket after they both appeared on screen in matching green dresses.

While Amber's Channel Nine colleague in Adelaide, Kate Collins, clearly got the memo, dressing in a powder blue jacket, Kellie did not. 

The fashion writer wore almost exactly the same shade of green as Amber, with their outfits also featuring a similar neckline. 

In an apparent attempt to cover up her dress, Kellie was seen sporting a striking blue jacket which clashed with her dress.

There was no evident friction between Amber and her guest as, along with Kate, they debated a number of topical issues. 

However, social media users were quick to pick up on the irony of another wardrobe malfunction involving Amber. 

Entertainment reporter Peter Ford questioned whether Amber had prompted her guest to put the blue jacket on. 

He tweeted: 'Random question. Do we think someone was politely asked to put a jacket on this afternoon?'

Cliche: Another user picked out the old adage 'blue and green should never be seen without something in between'

Bad decision: Meanwhile, one tweeter remarked that the outfit choice must have been made at the 'last minute'

Meanwhile, one tweeter remarked that the outfit choice must have been made at the 'last minute'.  

Last month, Amber received a social media backlash after launching into an angry exchange with Nine colleague Julie over the colour of her outfit. 

The extraordinary footage shows newsreader Amber having an epic meltdown after realising she, her fellow journalist and her guest were all wearing white.

Speaking to her producer, Amber said: 'I need Julie to put a jacket on because we're all in white. I asked her before we came on… Julie you need to put a jacket on.'

Julie defended herself, insisting she had not had time to change out of her outfit - but Amber refused to back down, replying: 'Come on I told you two hours ago.'

Julie apologised and said she had been 'flat out' and had not had time to switch into a different colour.

But a furious Amber had no time for her apology and continued to demand she get changed before going live.

Colourblind: Julie tried to claim her dress was actually blue, but she then agreed to put on a black jacket that was lying around in the newsroom

Julie tried to claim her dress was actually blue, but she then agreed to put on a black jacket that was lying around in the newsroom.

'If there's an issue I can just head on out and get back to work. I'm flat out. I genuinely forgot,' Julie said as she left her chair to find other clothes. 

Amber responded: 'Fine, jump on out if that's what you'd like to do. Come on, wearing a jacket. I asked you two-and-a-half hours ago. It's not the hardest request.

'I know it's not your issue. But we did talk about it two-and-a-half hours ago.' 

Diva: Despite their incredibly diva-esque row, the pair were all-smiles when they went on air, with Amber (centre) grinning as she introduced her colleague

It is not clear who leaked the footage, which was published by Mumbrella.

The two journalists later released a statement, with Amber admitting she 'probably overreacted'.

'Live TV can be a pretty stressful beast, at times. And as anyone knows, it's never much fun rocking up to work or to a party in the same outfit as one of your colleagues or friends,' she said. 

'I probably overreacted with the pressure of presenting a live news bulletin.'
