Helen Flanagan was pleased as punch with her lime green bodycon dress, that she snapped it twice

Kermit green is a difficult colour to pull off, unless you're Helen Flanagan.

The 23-year-old actress and model put on her zestiest dress for Easter celebrations on Saturday night as she dined with a friend at the ME Hotel in London.

Former Coronation Street actress Helen looked super slim in the tight fitting dress, although revealed to her fans that she had taken a break from her diet to indulge in some sweet Easter treats.

The former Coronation Street star seems to be keen to treat life as a catwalk since hiring the help of stylist Jodie Stringfellow, as she posted a snap of her looking dressed down casual.

Wearing acid wash high waisted jeans, a loose white long sleeved shirt which was tied at the waist to reveal Helen's slim figure, Helen accessorised her outfit with a floppy wide brimmed hat and Burberry green heels, carrying a beige Chanel quilted handbag.

Helen captioned the stylish shot with: 'Love the ME Hotel today's Easter look by the wonderful @jodiestrings with @burberry green heels and @taylormorris sunglasses #easterglam'

Helen could be upping style stakes as she recently revealed to OK! Magazine that because of her stint in I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here she is finding it hard to be taken seriously as an actress.

The pretty brunette said in an interview with OK!:

'I've got a few projects coming up. Reality TV…I trained as an actress but because I went in the jungle I think sometimes it's hard for people to take you seriously as an actress.'
