Katherine Jenkins cut a stylish figure as she attended a swanky St David’s day bash at the Ivy Restaurant in Cardiff on Friday.
The Welsh Opera singer, 43, who was born in nearby Neath, stunned in an eye catching pink and black chevron gown for the occasion.
Katherine’s dress boasted a fitted bodice and voluminous princess skirt which she teamed with a chic cropped blazer.
The blonde beauty added extra height to her frame with pointed black heels and toted her essentials in a matching clutch.
St. David’s day is celebrated in Wales every March 1st honouring the patron saint and Welsh culture.

It comes after Katherine also celebrated the big day the previous evening with husband Andrew Levitas and their London friends.
She looked as elegant as ever in a £345 red strapless mini dress by Nadine Merabi as she departed Langan’s Brasserie in Mayfair, London.
Katherine elevated her height with a pair of black stilettos and carried a small matching handbag to complete her look.
Katherine walked hand-in-hand with Andrew, who looked smart in a three-piece black suit and tie.
The couple were joined by Alex Jones, Nicola Mendelsohn, Marisha Wallace, Melissa Odabash and Julien Macdonald.
The group honoured Wales by enjoying a meal and sipping on Katherine’s own brand of gin, Cygnet.
Sharing some photos to Instagram, she captioned: ‘It’s very important to me to always honour where I’m from so tonight was really special to spend the evening with our amazing Welsh friends celebrating the eve of St. David’s Day!’
Katherine launched her own ‘female- forward’ premium gin named Cygnet, last May.

The opera singer has turned her hand to a completely new business venture and is the first female founder of a celebrity gin, made just six miles down the road from where she grew up.
Celebrating the release of the spirit, Katherine threw a party at the Rosewood Hotel in London.
The two spirits – Cygnet Welsh Dry Gin and Cygnet 22 Gin – retail between £35 and £47.50, with Katherine’s husband Andrew on board and Eric Villency, who designed products such as Peloton and Rock Star Energy drinks.
Of her new business, Katherine said: ‘Cygnet combines the finest local botanicals with pure Welsh water and being surrounded by the nature and beauty of the valleys, a whole lot of ‘Hwyl!’ (an ecstatic feeling of inspiration unique to Wales).

‘I’ve also included my ‘secret ingredient’ in Cygnet 22, Manuka Honey, which I use to take care of my voice.
She added: ‘All of this results in an ultra-premium gin that is so smooth you can sip it on its own.’
As a female founder, Katherine added she is passionate about speaking woman to woman.
Tired of male-driven spirit products, she wanted to break the mould and create a ‘Best in Glass’ gin for the sisterhood of gin lovers.
