'It’s also funny how people get out of your way!'

Keep it short and sweet like Holly in a suit from Miss Selfridge
From double denim yesterday to a tailored shorts suit today, This Morning host Holly Willoughby is clearly a big fan of the matchy matchy trend!

Armed Forces Day is an annual event celebrated in late June to remember the service of men and women in the British Armed Forces.
Addressing viewers, Phillip said: 'This vehicle served in the Middle East in the 60s and 70s and served in Northern Ireland and has a top speed of 45 mph.
'To mark the day, events will be going on up and down the country this weekend.'

Leggy: Holly looked incredible wearing a light blue suit and nude barely there sandals as she walked along with Phillip
Holly said, 'Well, we couldn’t do this is the old studio! And it would have been manned by a crew of three, just like today, and our driver Nick deserves a round of applause for driving into the studio.
'So Armed Forces Day is this Saturday and it’s your chance to show support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community, from currently serving troops to service families, veterans, and cadettes.'
Phillip also sent a message to the forces currently tackling the Manchester fire. He said, 'We would also like to wish all the armed forces helping the emergency services to fight the fire on Saddleworth Moor, so good luck to all of you. Incredible job that you’re doing.'

Adding: 'To mark the day, events will be going on up and down the country this weekend'
Wow thing: While Holly wasn't exactly dressed for getting in and out of a tank, she looked fantastic all the same
Before adding, 'Also thanks to the Norfolk Tank Museum for bringing us to work today! Thanks Nick, I don’t envy you backing it out…'.
After getting down from the tank, Holly smiled, 'I made it! Do you know it’s not easy getting out of that in a heel!'
Once the show started, Holly said, 'It is very odd sat here with the tank glaring at us! It kind of has a face…'
Phillip added, 'It looks like there’s been an invasion… and it is quite intimidating.'
Off they go: Holly and Phil appeared to be having a whale of a time on their quirky method of transport
Double trouble: The pair looked very glamorous as they stepped out into the sunshine
