The Pretty Little Liars actress headed into to esNAIL LA to get herself a star manicure or as she calls it 'City of Stars from La La Land themed nails'.

Lucy's gel manicure saw a technician do black stars on a white background, which the actress made sure to show off on social media. 

For her nail session, Lucy wore an oversized nude coloured sweater with a pair of tight straight leg Parker Smith jeans.

The knit top was oversize so fell off one shoulder revealing her decolletage, which made the outfit sexy without flashing too much skin.
