It may be something of a busman’s holiday, but Hollywood actress Sandra Bullock is clearly enjoying her time at the Venice International Film Festival.
The Miss Congeniality star, 49, looked effortlessly stylish in high-waisted red trousers and a monochrome sleeveless top as she navigated the city during its annual cinema gala, today.
Casually managing the Venetian summer heat, the Virginia-born star teamed her outfit with black stiletto shoes and over-sized sunglasses for a timeless, European aesthetic.

The performer has travelled to the festival with fellow actor George Clooney, with whom she co-stars in new sci-fi thriller, Gravity.
The film, directed by Alfonso Cuarón, opened the ceremony at the Palazzo del Cinema on Wednesday to hordes of screaming fans.
There, Sandra scored herself another fashion hit with an exquisite Alexander McQueen duchess silk-satin gown, which she wore with a diamante clutch bag, strappy sandals and diamond earrings.

Twenty-four hours earlier she had wowed onlookers with a figure-flattering, colour block number by Australian designer Alex Perry, making today’s ensemble a fashion hat-trick.
Glamour aside, the movie itself cuts a more sombre tone. It tells the tale of a medical engineer and an astronaut who work together to survive after an accident leaves them adrift in space.

It is already being touted as the perfect follow-up to Bullock’s Oscar-winning performance in The Blind Side.
Unfortunately, Clooney’s behaviour has been a little less award-worthy of late.
The eligible actor was recently scolded by a local lawyer for allegedly driving a water taxi without a license. Mario D'Elia has urged police to check if had had the required permit to drive a water taxi at a time when the city’s canals are hugely congested.

The move comes after the death of a German tourist who was crushed by a water bus, earlier this month.
Venice mayor Giorgio Orsoni has since threatened a huge clampdown on illegal activity by canal drivers, including poor steering and overtaking.
Arriving in Venice on Friday were Judi Dench, who kept cool in a white outfit and Jesse Eisenberg, who didn't need help to carry his bags to his hotel.
