PICTURE EXCLUSIVE: Worse for wear David Beckham gallantly holds car door open for model Poppy Delevingne as they party the night away together in Hollywood... on the eve of her absent husband's birthday 

Since touching down in Los Angeles recently, David Beckham appears to be making the most of all the sun-kissed Californian city has to offer.

In the early hours of Thursday morning, the retired footballer, 41, was seen partying at West Hollywood bar The Friend with British model Poppy Delevingne, 30.

And, as pictures exclusively obtained by MailOnline show, while the sportsman appeared to be a tad worse for wear, he remained the quintessential gentleman, holding a car door open for the beauty as they eventually  made their exit.

We like to party! David Beckham was seen partying with Poppy Delevingne at West Hollywood bar The Friend in the early hours of Thursday morning

Looking uncharacteristically unkempt in a crumpled khaki jacket with a red beanie, the Manchester United legend struggled to keep his eyes open as he left the bar.

Poppy, looking like she'd also enjoyed quite a memorable night, followed closely behind, wearing a denim jacket and toting a black Louis Vuitton handbag.

Also spotted at the hot-spot that night were Poppy's fellow model sister Cara Delevingne, as well as singer and former The Voice judge Rita Ora. 

Noticeably absent though was Poppy's husband James, despite it being his birthday on Thursday.

Eye eye! The retired footballer's eyes were barely open as he made his way out of the bar

Go handsfree in Poppy's Louis Vuitton bag

Poppy Delevingne can always be relied upon to provide us with some much needed sartorial inspiration. As always, she is the epitome of glamour, even in a simple denim jacket. But what really tops this look off is what’s hanging subtly from her shoulder.

Louis Vuitton’s Vivienne bag was AW13's ultimate ‘it’ bag. With its super cute and, most importantly, practical interior of pockets and pouches, it is versatile and will give any look a chic overhaul. One upon a time, an oversized LV logo that big would have put us off, but, contrasted with smooth black leather the gold lettering really tops this piece off.

Team with…well anything you want. With a pair of black skinnies and a structured blazer this bag would look chic and business like, but even with a floral dress it would still lift your look by miles.

Unfortunately, dream piece is now sold out. So we’ve rounded up the best simple black shoulder bags for your shopping pleasure.

While she wasn't with him on his big day Poppy made sure to send a loving message to James via Instagram after her wild night out with pal Becks.

'HaPpY bIrThDaY to you, my husband, my true blue, my forever boy. Your support & love is endless, & I can honestly say I am one lucky weasel to have you in my life,' she wrote alongside a black and white photo of her handsome husband on the beach.

'I am grateful for you, everyday & always. Have a magical one, & I wish I was there to kiss that face. I love you,' the model added.

What's that? Poppy had a box slipped into the back pocket of her jeans 

Poppy and James married in 2014 at Claridge's Hotel in London's Mayfair.

Poppy's grandfather is the former English Heritage chairman Sir Jocelyn Stevens, founder of the 1960s pirate radio station Radio Caroline.

Meanwhile her father Charles, a property-developer, had a grandfather who was a politician (Hamar, 1st Viscount Greenwood) and his aunt, Doris Delevingne, was a society beauty who was friends with Winston Churchill.

Her mother, Pandora, is one of the Duchess of York's best friends and her grandmother was a lady-in-waiting for Princess Margaret.  

Party people: Poppy's younger sister, model and actress Cara, and her singer pal Rita Ora were also  enjoying the star-studded night out

Meanwhile while many a mere mortal would likely spend the proceeding morning after such a night out wrapped under bed covers, David was back to working on his fitness just hours after partying with Poppy and her sister.

As the sun shone over the coastal city, David was spotted in the tony neighbourhood of Brentwood, where went for a workout session at the popular SoulCycle gym.

Bearing his heavily tattooed arms in a tight black T-shirt - which he teamed with black shorts and peach sneakers - he shielded his eyes behind a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses while a black cap sat atop his head.

David, whose singer-turned-designer wife, Victoria Beckham, is currently in London with the couple's four children, enjoyed a guys' night out on Wednesday.

He was joined by pal David Gardner courtside during a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game at downtown LA's Staples Center.

He looked scruffy during the game against the Denver Nuggets (who lost to the Lakers 120-116), wearing a burgundy beanie and bristly beard while he cheered on the team.

David seemed thrilled to spend a night out with the boys, as he was seen grinning and laughing throughout the game.

The 41-year-old hunk looked casually cool for the sporty excursion, wearing a slate coloured tee with his maroon knitted beanie hat.

He carried a matching sweater over his shoulders before ditching the extra layer beneath his chair.

Days earlier, David was spotted with his wife Victoria in France, where they soaked up the festvities surrounding Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week.
