Olivia Colman rocked her blonde short hair as she attended Burberry’s takeover at Harrods on Thursday to mark the department stores’ 175th anniversary.
The 50-year-old actress looked stunning in a green and white checked trench coat for the event held at the Brompton Road store.
Olivia, who dyed her hair blonde for the Wonka premiere late last year, paired the designer sweater with a green gingham dress.
The Crown star carried her stuff in a matching patterned handbag and sported a glamorous makeup palette.
Olivia elevated her body with a pair of beige leather boots and accessorized with a pair of chunky gold earrings.

The shop floor was transformed for the immersive brand experience, complete with new uniforms for the doormen designed by the British brand.
It comes after Olivia reflected on filming sex scenes with on-screen lover Michael Ward in Empire of Light – and spoke about the moment she discovered his mother is five years younger than her.
The actress and the Top Boy star, 25, discussed some “slightly embarrassing” moments during filming during a speech on The Graham Norton Show which aired on New Year’s Eve.
The 1917 Sam Mendes-directed romantic drama stars Olivia as movie theater manager Hilary, who develops a relationship with a ticket seller, Stephen, played by the much younger Michael.
Speaking about the intimate scenes, Olivia said: ‘There was a particular moment where I was straddling Michael in a compromising and slightly embarrassing situation and he said, ‘Today is my mum’s birthday.’
When he said she was 43, I was like, “Okay, stop talking!”
When asked if the role was written specifically for her, Olivia said: ‘Apparently so. But Sam is so nice he would say that anyway. He was watching The Crown at the time and thought of me.
‘We had a Zoom call during lockdown and I said ‘okay, yes’ before I even knew what it was. It’s an incredible honor for him to write something for me.’

‘Thank God it was a great part – can you imagine if it had been rubbish!’
Michael said later in the show about working with Olivia: “It was an amazing experience. It was incredible to share the same space. I learned so much about being a real person – everyone had a real sense of humanity.
“If Olivia had been rude, I might have thought that’s how I have to be to reach a certain level of success, but the fact that she’s so nice has shown me that I can be a good person and still can be successful.’
Empire Of Light is a love story ‘set around a beautiful old cinema on the south coast of England in the 1980s’.
Filming on the project began in Margate in early February. The seaside resort was transported back to the 1980s when builders transformed the area around the Dreamland amusement park.
