Colour coordination: Sam Faiers enjoyed dinner with her boyfriend Joey Essex and friends last night as stepped out in an orange dress which matched her tan


It can be tricky business trying to create the perfect fake tan colour and there is a fine line between flaunting sunkissed skin and looking like you’ve been tangoed.

So when The Only Way Is Essex star Sam Faiers decided to wear a bright orange dress to dinner last night it appeared she had matched her outfit to her skin tone.

The boutique owner, 20, arrived with her boyfriend Joey Essex at Alex’s Restaurant in Brentwood and her deep tan was just as bright as her kaftan-style dress.


Sam teamed her outfit with a pretty patterned clutch and a pair of brown strappy wedges.

Meanwhile boyfriend and promoter Joey opted for a retro look of drainpipe stonewash jeans his favourite brown belt a long-sleeved white Abercrombie and Fitch T-shirt and a camal jacket.

The couple dined with Sam’s sister Billie and her boyfriend as well as a number of friends.

While on screen their affections have been limited to a few pecks on the lips Sam and Joey were seen canoodling together at the dinner table.

At one point Sam stroked his face and later he stroked her lip, perhaps adjusting her orange lip gloss as she hung her arm around the nape of his neck.

Helping hand: Joey adjusted Sam's lipgloss and the pair looked extremely close during dinner


A happy love life isn’t the only thing that Sam has to smile about at the moment she and Billie have found their boutique has been a hit with fans of the reality TV show.

When Brentwood boutique Minnies opened to the public earlier this month, hoards of young girls and their mothers queued patiently to catch of glimpse of the goods on offer at the store.

During their store launch, the sisters told the MailOnline that they’d love to dress Kate Middleton.

The sisters also named Gossip Girl Blake Liveley and fellow reality stars the Kardashian sisters as their ideal celebrity clients.

But their dream A-lister is Kate, and said: ‘She always looks lovely, but she’s always very smartly dressed. We’d love to see her in one of our dresses.’

While Billie opted for a navy blue silk knee-length dress during their store’s first day of business.

TOWIE's Sam and Billie launch their boutique Minnie's... but Jessica Wright steals the show in sexy knee socks

By Andrea Magrath


Sister Act: Sam and Billie Faiers are hosting the launch of their boutique Minnie's in Brentwood tonight


The stars of The Only Way Is Essex have had a one-stop shop to stock up on everything they need for a night at the Sugar Hut since Sam and Billie Faiers opened their Brentwood boutique this season.

And now the sisters have opened Minnie's boutique up to everyone else, and celebrated the public opening in (Essex) style with a party tonight.

The blonde beauties dressed up for their big launch, but even their spring frocks were overshadowed by co-star Jessica Wright's sexy schoolgirl knee socks.


The recently surgically-enhanced singer arrived for the party early, and ensured she was the centre of attention in a white dress with pussybow tie neck and a very short hemline.

Jessica drew attention away from her recent breast enlargement by wearing a pair of provocative socks with her towering nude heels.
Sam, 20, looked elegant in a cream and lace dress with her hair in a top bun.

Sister Billie, who joined Sam on the reality show this season, wore a billowing hot pink maxi dress.

The Faiers girls have often been filmed working in their Essex store during season two, Billie providing a shoulder for Sam to cry on over her love life as they take stock of their designer labels.

Minnie's was the scene of Sam's recent fall-out with Mark Wright when he criticised her romance with Joey Essex, and even played host to Lydia's pig Mr Darcy who christened the shop floor during the opening party.

The girls are stocking labels Armand Basi, Maggie + Me, Love Soni, D-Brand, Siren, Delicious Couture & London Rebel Footwear - all of which are worn by the cast on the show.

Fans of the series will be able to dress in the Essex girl style can shop at Minnie's from this Saturday.

Perhaps they will catch a glimpse of Sam's new boyfriend Joey Essex hanging around the Brentwood store. He and Sam appear to have stepped up their romance of late, and shared a tent while the gang went 'glam-ping' on last night's episode.

Get set for another Essex love triangle! Sam Faiers and Joey Essex share steamy pool kiss

By Andrea Magrath


Steamy: Sam Faiers and Joey Essex share a kiss in the pool in an upcoming episode of The Only Way Is Essex


With local lothario Mark Wright off the market, the ladies of Essex were bereft without a perma-tanned playboy to fight over.

Step up, Joey Essex - the super-quiffed, more orange version of Wright- who has quickly struck up romances with two of the former's exes since joining The Only Way Is Essex this season.

After he was shown trying his charm on Lucy Mecklenburgh in recent episodes, the real-life Ken doll will get hot and heavy in a pool with Sam Faiers in an episode this week.


In a sneak peek to be aired at the end of tonight's episode, the pair will share a steamy embrace in skimpy swimwear.

The club promoter lusted after Lucy, 19, in the first episode of season two, but she rejected his advances, wisely, after he admitted that he doesn't know who the prime minister is.

After the dejected 20-year-old witnessed Lucy leaving a night out with Kirk Norcross, he turned his eye to Sam, another former love interest of Mark's.

Love triangle: the perma-tanned playboy has been spotted on dates with Sam and Lucy Mecklenburgh in the past fortnight


The pair began flirting, much to Mark's chagrin, who said the glamour model was only showing interest in Joey to make him jealous.

Joey has since been spotted on dates with both Lucy and Sam, 20, in the past fortnight, cementing his place as the new local heartbreaker.

But Lucy may be surprised to know that while Joey sets his sights on her first on camera, his flirtation with Sam actually goes back to February.

History: Lucy may be surprised to know that Sam and Joey were actually first spotted together back in early February, and also enjoyed a flirtatious night out along with her sister Billie last month


The pair were spotted leaving a London's Revolution bar together in early February, weeks before filming commenced on the second season.

And late last month Sam and Joey were spied drinking and dancing the night away with her sister Billie, another new addition to the show, at Sugar Hut in Brentwood.

The following morning Billie hinted at a romance on her Twitter page, writing : 'Samantha Faiers and Joey Essex = Mr and Mrs Essex!' adding a 'wink'.
