Holly teamed the look with indigo jeans and wore thick blue and purple socks under her military inspired boots. 

She donned a bright blue beanie hat from Scottish cashmere brand BRORA and shielded her eyes with brown sunglasses made from recycled plastic and rescued fishing nets by Coral Eyewear. 

The TV veteran appeared in high spirits as she walked along the river before heading into a wooded area.

She penned: ‘Topping up on Vit D in the white light… thanks @jakehumphrey for my beautiful @coraleyewear love them! … made from recycled plastic and rescued fishing nets keeping our oceans cleaner… great idea!’   

Holly has been embracing the lead-up to the festive season and on Thursday night was seen marking Guy Fawkes Night on November 5th, after many firework displays were cancelled as England plunged into a month-long lockdown.

Taking to Instagram to share a snap of her garden celebration, the presenter excitedly brandished a pair of sparklers as she enjoyed a festivities.

Wrapped up in a black padded coat, Holly beamed with excitement as she waved her sparklers around in the garden, with the caption: ‘Ooooooooooo…’

Earlier in the week Holly was left in stitches when she saw Emily Atack’s impersonation of her on This Morning on Tuesday.

The skit appears in The Inbetweeners actress’ new sketch show, The Emily Atack Show, and the moment – which sees “Holly” present a segment on underwear before passing gas – was teased on the magazine programme.

The preview came after Emily revealed she didn’t tell Holly about impersonating her and was ‘scared’ how the This Morning host would react when she sees the sketch.

Holly could not stop laughing as she watched the piece which saw Emily fart – a move she explained was because she couldn’t imagine Holly doing so.

She said that much like you couldn’t imagine the Queen passing gas, it was hard to imagine Holly doing the same, so wanted to add the funny addition.

The new Celebrity Juice star, who recently replaced Holly as team captain, poked fun at the presenter’s clean-cut image in the skit.

Emily, 30, insisted the gag is not ‘malicious’ and believed Holly would see the funny side as they both share a ‘cheeky’ sense of humour.
