Call the Midwife actress Helen George looked super chic in a new photo shared on her Instagram Stories on Sunday as she dedicated the sweet post to someone special in her life.
Posting on her social media page, the star, who plays Nurse Trixie Franklin in the beloved BBC drama, could be seen sitting at a table in a restaurant smiling alongside her friend, Yyette, who Helen wanted to celebrate in honour of her loved one's birthday.
The 39-year-old wrote in the caption: "Happiest of birthdays my darling", before adding: "What a wonder you are" accompanied by a white love heart emoji.
Helen looked elegant and summery in a strappy dress adorned with crystals. She paired the outfit with a subtle and smart wristwatch. Helen's friend, meanwhile, wore a black sparkly dress with large statement earrings.
The actress never misses when it comes to her fashion. Last week, she rocked a figure-hugging silky mint green strappy dress which was emblazoned with white and dark green flowers. Her darker, raven, locks were styled in loose waves as they fall over her shoulders.
