The Scottish star opted for a comfy display with her choice of footwear as she rocked a pair of box-fresh white trainers by Adidas.
Gail, who treated her Twitter followers to a snap from the event, displayed her naturally radiant complexion as she went make-up free.

The couple, who were introduced by radio DJ Sara Cox, were dubbed ‘Beauty and the Beast’ due to Keith’s wild hair and scary music videos.
In fact, The Prodigy’s Firestarter music video was deemed so scary, when it was released in 1997, that many TV channels wouldn’t show it until after the watershed.
Gail was very much regarded as a wholesome television presenter compared to Keith’s raver image and people were shocked when they started dating.

She later insisted Keith was very different from his public image, describing him as ‘lovely and gentle’ but admitted her mother was speechless when she met him.
Gail previously hinted that it was she who preferred wild nights out, whereas Keith loved nights in.
Back in 2008, she said: ‘He was lovely and gentle and oh I still am so fond of him.’
The Scottish presenter went onto marry Toploader guitarist Dan Hipgrave in August 2001 and gave birth to their daughter Honey on 3 September 2002.
Whereas Keith married singer Mayumi Kai in 2006 in front of pals, the late David Gest and Busted’s Matt Willis.

Keith was discovered unconscious at his property near Dunmow, Essex at around 8AM on March 4, after police were called over what they described as ‘concerns for his welfare’.
Paramedics attempted to resuscitate him but he was pronounced dead at the scene. Police have said they are not treating the death as suspicious.
Flint became one of the faces of 1990s rave when his energetic dance style and punk haircuts made him one of the chart’s most recognisable characters. His band were best known for their fast-paced songs including Firestarter, Breathe and Smack My B**** Up.
