Kate Beckinsale dazzled on the red carpet at the London Critics’ Circle Film Awards.

The British beauty shrugged off the cold, arriving at the event in an elegant white dress with cape sleeves and a black belt. Her monochromatic look was finished off with strappy black heels and sparkling earrings.

Kate, who is up for two acting gongs at the awards for her movie Love & Friendship, wore her brunette locks in gentle waves over her shoulders.
