Cat Deeley returned to This Morning this week, and we've missed our weekly fashion inspiration. The TV presenter made a bright and bold comeback, stepping onto set in a butter yellow blazer and coordinating trousers. The star looked polished and put together for a spring day.

Butter yellow was one of the mainstays of last spring and summer, and Cat's smart two-piece has signalled a return of this gorgeous pastel hue. Pairing pretty with androgynous, thanks to the tailored fit, her collarless blazer and straight fit trousers, with front crease, created a figure-lengthening fit that highlighted Cat's long frame.

Get the look

Finishing off her outfit with a pair of barely there heeled sandals, Cat Deeley's muted but summery look was the perfect way to usher in the beautiful weather we're having right now. Her buttery yellow two-piece featured a collarless, V-neckline, offering a contemporary take on suiting for special occasionwear. The nipped-in waist and gentle flare on the jacket gave an almost peplum-like effect that highlighted the piece's femininity.

While we often spot Cat in wide-leg trousers and jeans, for Tuesday's This Morning show, the presenter opted for a slimmer fit pair of trousers, which balanced beautifully with her tailored blazer. Made to be worn together, there is also a slim-fit pencil skirt that can be paired with the jacket for added versatility, delivering multiple mix-and-match looks.

Even though Cat's jacket isn't your typical lapelled style, her gorgeous butter yellow number could still be easily worked into a jeans and a blazer outfit, working particularly well with lighter blue denim washes, helping to add a more polished feel to your true blues and giving your jacket in particular a whole new lease of life. It's all about maxing out your spring capsule wardrobe heroes and getting the most mileage out of those statement buys.
