Sophia Bush cuts a chic figure in Gucci sweater and high-waisted check trousers at star-studded think tank conference

She is the super stylish actress who shot to fame on teen drama, One Tree Hill, back in 2003.

And Sophia Bush oozed elegance as she attended the annual Milken Institute Global Conference at The Beverly Hilton Hotel, Los Angeles on Tuesday.

The John Tucker Must Die star, 36, showed off her sartorial prowess in a striking scarlet and emerald green Gucci jumper, emblazoned with the fashion house's signature double G logo.

Keeping the look sleek and stylish, she donned camel check trousers, with a high-waist that clung to her taut midriff.

The brunette beauty boosted her height with a pair of simple yet elegant white stilettos.

Her tresses were styled into a sleek updo with wavy strands framing her face.

Smoky shadow and berry lipstick accentuated her pretty features.

The star joined a host of celebrities including Gayle King, Alex Rodriguez, Gene Simmons and Ivanka Trump at the conference.

The Milken Institute is a non-profit independent economic think tank based in Santa Monica, California.    

The actress was enjoying a well-earned break from shooting her lead role in upcoming CBS spy drama series, Surveillance.

In the complex thriller, Sophia plays a charming NSA operative who finds her loyalties torn between protecting the government's secrets and her own.

The screen favourite will also appear alongside Patriot star Michael Dorman in the upcoming indie flick Hard Luck Love Song, which is due for release later this year.

Sophia shot to fame starring as Brooke Davis on teen drama One Tree Hill from 2003 to 2012.  

She recently spoke out about how the show's 'opportunistic' producers exploited her break-up from One Tree Hill co-star Chad Michael Murray, 37, following their split back in 2005.

The pair met when they played screen loves in the show in 2003 and soon developed a relationship off-camera.

The couple got engaged in 2004 and married in Santa Monica, California, in April 2005.

By September 2005, the union was all over and they separated after just four months of marriage, finalising their divorce in December 2006 after Sophia's request for an annulment on the grounds of fraud was denied.  

Speaking on Dax Shephard's Armchair Expert podcast in December 2018, Sophia said One Tree Hill producers were 'really deeply inappropriate' following the split.

'They ran TV ads about it. It was really ugly,' she explained.

'They made practice of taking advantage of people's personal lives and not just for me and for my ex - for other actors on the show who would share... deeply personal things that were happening in their lives and they would wind up in storylines.

'It wasn't OK. It was opportunistic and ugly. When you run a show, you're like a parent. You're supposed to protect your flock and it was the opposite of that.

'It was a very ugly situation on their part. I think they kind of lived for the drama.'
