It was a rare night out for mother-of-two Lily Cooper as she made her return to the red carpet at the WilliamVintage pre-BAFTA private dinner on Friday.

However, perhaps the excitement at an evening out was too much for the singer, who was in a playful mood as she got ready in her hotel suite.

Clearly inspired by Victoria Beckham - who had earlier posted a Twitter photo of herself wearing a bag on her head - Lily also decided to lark around with a bag.

In a series of Twitter and Instagram photos uploaded by Lily and close pals Nick Grimshaw and Miquita Oliver, the singer posed up a storm in the quirky shots.

In a photo uploaded by former T4 presenter Miquita, Lily is seen standing in front of BBC Radio 1 breakfast host Nick, who is wearing a lampshade on his head.

In another shot, Lily is seen 'bursting' out of a shopping bag while Nick juggles lampshades in the background.

Referring to Marc Jacobs' Spring/Summer 2008 campaign, which features Victoria popping out of one of his brand's bags, Lily tweeted: 'marcjacobs #jurgenteller victoriabeckham watch your backs, me and @grimmers are coming for you aw13.'

Earlier that evening, she had tweeted her excitement about going out: 'Getting dolled up for @williamvintage #BAFTA dinner ce soir.'

Lily was one of a host of celebrities in attendance at the WilliamVintage bash at the St Pancras Renaissance Hotel.

It marked her first public event since giving birth to her second daughter Marnie Rose four weeks ago.

She also has a 15-month-old daughter Ethel with husband Sam Cooper, 34.

Also at the bash was BAFTA Rising Star nominee Andrea Riseborough, who wore a floor-length bronze dress.

Silent Witness star Emilia Fox looked rather different than usual with her glowing tan and pink satin dress.

Other guests included Bonnie Wright, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Chris O'Dowd and Dawn O'Porter.
