It was back to business for Beyonce today following Halloween festivities in New York last night.

The radiant 30-year-old was spotted arriving at her office this morning in a chic and stylish outfit which included an animal print scarf, red jacket and jeans.

The pregnant singer, who is due in February, topped of the look with an unusual pair of high-heeled boots.

She looked in high spirits after a fun night the previous evening, where she joined friends for Halloween fun.

The Run The World singer donned yellow and black stripes to become an adorable bumble bee.

Teaming her puffed-out gilet with some striking bee-striped heels, Beyonce's eye-catching outfit made her unmissable as she left the Darby restaurant in New York.

The star showed off her toned legs in some very brief black shorts, and completed her outfit with a cute antennae headband.

Beyonce avoided anything clingy to show her changing figure too clearly, having recently sparked questions due to her bump's marked absence from her latest music video, Party.

Not to be outdone, Hilary Duff, who is due to give birth to a baby boy in March, went undercover in a burglar's outfit alongside her husband, NHL star Mike Comrie, last night.

The pair matched their ensembles almost exactly, both wearing black and white striped tops, black trousers, black woolie beanies and painted-on black eye masks.

As a further touch, 24-year-old Hilary carried a brown bag with a large dollar sign drawn onto it.

She also sported black face paint on her nose and forehead in honour of the occasion.

Meanwhile Jessica Simpson has finally confirmed what everyone's been thinking - she is indeed pregnant.

The 31-year-old reality star has just made an official announcement on her website. She wrote a short message, telling her fans: 'It's true, I am going to be a mummy.'

The former singer, who is engaged to NBA star Eric Johnson, also comically dressed up in a mummy Halloween outfit in a photograph to accompany the announcement, while cradling her bump.

Jessica has been at the centre of swirling pregnancy rumours for weeks now - but until today has remained mum.

And mother of two Jennifer Garner plumped for a witches costume, putting on a purple and black hat cape over a black dress which showed off her blossoming baby bump.

Braided hair and oversized sunglasses completed the look as she headed to pick up daughters Seraphina and Violet from school in Los Angeles today.
