Protective mother: Kate Beckinsale keeps a comforting arm around daughter Lily as the pair shop the Christmas sales in Beverly Hills yesterday


She's one of the sexiest actresses in the world, but undoubtedly Kate Beckinsale's most important role is being a mother.

The 37-year-old British star kept a protective arm around her 11-year-old daughter Lily Mo Sheen as the pair strolled the streets of Beverly Hills yesterday.

The pair were joined by Kate's husband, director Len Wiseman, for a spot of post holiday sales shopping.

The always-stylishly-dressed Kate looked chic but relaxed in black leggings, biker boots, a black leather jacket and a grey slouchy hat which she paired with sunglasses.

Fresh faced and without a scrap of make-up, the Peal Harbour star was sporting natural, wavy hair which complemented her casual style.

Lily, whose father is actor Michael Sheen, appears to be taking after her stylish mother in the fashion stakes and wore a trendy ensemble of black leggings and a bright red festive hoodie, teamed with black ballet pumps.


Keep warm: Kate and her husband Len Wiseman took Lily to Starbucks to pick up a hot drink


Kate kept Lily, who turns 12 next month, on a short lease and wrapped her arms round her daughter as the pair joined Len inside a Starbucks coffee shop.

The family picked up hot drinks and snacks inside the store before heading back to their car to return home.

Kate is set to be busy in the coming year, starring in Underworld 4: New Dawn.

She met Len when she starred in the first Underworld film, which he directed, while she was still in a relationship with Michael Sheen.

Rather than her husband, the new Underworld film will be directed by Mans Marlin and Bjorn Stein, and is due for release in January 2012.
