While Tamara's make-up appears flawless, with a bold smokey eye and nude lip, Sophia hasn't quite picked up her mum's cosmetic skills. 

With bright purple eyes, black smudges on her cheeks and smeared red lipsticks, Formula One heiress Tamara captioned the hilarious photo: 'When you turn around for a second and this happens'.

Whilst Sophia seemed to be enjoying playing with the cosmetics, it appears that she will have more to play with come Christmas.

Tamara posted a picture on her Instagram of the giant advent calendar she set up for her daughter.

The socialite is no stranger to doing up her house for the holidays, having littered her porch with pumpkins and skeletons for Halloween. 

There's no sign of slowing down for the Christmas period, as she began to decorate her £70million home for the festive season on Wednesday.

The heiress was seen having an extensive selection of baubles and Christmas trees, as well as life-sized sleigh, put up outside her sprawling Kensington mansion.

A huge Christmas tree adorned with festive red and green baubles was put up beside the porch, while a life-sized sleigh was erected behind it - complete with a realistic pile of brightly-coloured presents.  

The starlet recently talked about her anxiety over leaving her daughter in the latest episode of her reality TV show Tamara's World. 

The 'nervous' mum went for dinner with her friend Victoria, but threatened to leave after fretting over the youngster's cough - and timed the journey from her house to the restaurant in case she had to rush back.

Work winter florals like Tamara in a printed dress by Zimmermann

Tamara Ecclestone's impressive designer wardrobe is one of the best things about her new reality show.

Each and every week we get to see pieces by the likes of Saint Laurent, Balmain and Gucci, but Zimmermann seems to be one of her favourites at the moment. And it's easy to see why!

We love the pretty floral print and ruffle details on this V-neck dress, which you can add to your own wardrobe over at Farfetch (click right). If you thought florals were just for spring then allow this little number to prove you wrong!

Or if Zimmermann is a bit out of your budget (we know the feeling!), our edit below is on hand to help. Topshop and Asos are the only places you need to go. Team yours with ankle boots and a chic camel coat for a dinner date in the run up to Christmas.
