The sexy little number, complete with cut-out detail and a heart shaped bodice, drew further attention to her sun-kissed curves while allowing her natural beauty to shine with minimal makeup.

Keeping her look understated, yet, cool, the Bride Wars actress toted her belongings in chic leather handbag while she shinned heels for a plain set of flip-flops.

And not to be outdone in the style stakes, the professional ballroom dancer cut a stylish figure in a simple white shirt and a dark pair of fitted jeans which was coupled with a trendy off-white cap.
