The Northern former model, wore her blonde hair in a side-parting, letting her shiny locks fall in loose waves down her left shoulder.
Tess used a thick line of eyeliner on each eye to accentuate the length of her lashes and opted for a neutral lip colour that helped her skin glow.
With just a simple gold band on her wrist and matching dangling earrings, Daley finished off the metallic look with a pair of peep-toe heels that shined from under her black skirt.
