From the top of her beehive to the hem of her black studded minidress, she could pass for a woman half her age - and a pretty cool one at that.

Though the singer, 59, has an enviable figure and a peachy complexion, she obviously can't hold back every sign of ageing.

The Scottish singer announced in an interview earlier this year that she wanted to age more naturally.

Lulu was pictured as she took a break from filming a presenting slot at the iTunes festival at Camden Palace.
