Look who's had a Posh makeover: Tana Ramsay goes all LA with sleek new look

When Gordon Ramsay made his grand entrance at the GQ Men of the Year Awards, onlookers could have been forgiven for thinking the celebrity chef had Victoria Beckham on his arm.

But the Posh look-a-like was none other than the fiery Scot's wife of 12 years - although her dramatic makeover meant many guests failed to recognise her.

For Tana, 34, who is a cook in her own right, has replaced the tumbling tresses she was always known for with a sleek blonde look previously favoured by her new best friend.

And while the mother-of-four is often seen on her cookery book covers in more casual attire, she also took a page out of fashion victim Victoria's book for the glamorous event at the Royal Opera House in London, donning a stylish, short, one-shouldered glimmering gold dress and golden stilettos.

The striking similarity between Mrs Ramsay and Mrs Beckham comes as the Ramsays have been spending an increasing amount of time in the U.S., where Ramsay has opened restaurants in New York, Florida and most recently, Los Angeles.

The LA venture has allowed the husband-and-wife chefs to spend more time with their celebrity friends, Victoria and David, who are regular diners at the West Hollywood eatery.

Others in their LA loop include Desperate Housewives actress Eva Longoria and her husband, basketball player Tony Parker, as well as English actress Kate Beckinsale and her director husband Len Wiseman.

Tana spoke of her friendship with the Beckhams earlier this year, admitting to finding the former Spice Girl 'chic and beautiful'.

But when it came time to go home after Tuesday night's celebrations, Tana's style crown slipped slightly when she was spotted looking slightly tired.
