TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp and her younger sister Sofie made for a glamorous pairing when they arrived together for the National TV Awards. And it would seem the elder sibling, who is currently taking a break from the small screen to spend time with her new baby Bay, can take all the plaudits for their stylish outfits, as she chose them both.

"I bought Sofie her dress from the Betty Jackson boutique in Chelsea on Monday night as an early Christmas present," she revealed. "She found her pink handbag in Accessorize and then, as we have the same size feet, I lent her my Gucci shoes for the night."

And the Location, Location, Location presenter obviously puts her loved ones first, as she waited until the last minute to pick out her own ensemble. "I actually went to Selfridges with my mother this afternoon," she evealed. "Everyone was panicking that I wouldn't get anything in time, but I managed to find this great dress from Coast and a little Diane von Furstenberg jacket to go with it."

Becoming a mum may have been part of the reason she left choosing her dress until the 11th hour, as these days she prefers to do her shopping in children's stores. "I just haven't felt like buying anything for myself since Bay was born," she confessed. "I only like buying things for him, as he fits into everything." And the 33-year-old obviously looking as youthful as ever as pop star Peter Andre apparently thought she and Sofie, who is seven years her junior, were twins.
