Sarah's LBD highlighted her toned, tanned legs, and she exaggerated her height with a pair of black open-toe stilettos.

The look featured large shoulder pad frills that were dotted with rhinestones.

The 5ft3in Vampire Academy star had her brunette tresses parted down the middle and held back in a tight bun, which highlighted her jeweled globe earrings.

Sarah shared a snap from inside the venue where she met up with her friend, professional dancer Joy Denver Spears.

Sarah had added a pair of stylish clear frame glasses for the event. 

Though she made her name with her TV work, Sarah is also an accomplished singer who has made multiple Broadway appearances, including in productions of classics like Annie and Hair.

She's mostly stuck to singing pop songs and show tunes, but chances are the Scary Movie 5 actor is also a country music fan.

Sarah took to the stage during the event to help present with country/pop singer Jessie James Decker, who was dressed in a lovely pink mini dress.

Though she's usually bringing laughs on Modern Family, Sarah has dealt with plenty of health scares in real life.

She's been open about her battle with kidney dysplasia, a condition she was born with that required kidney transplants in 2012 and 2018.

Helping Sarah through her recovery process has been her boyfriend, Bachelorette alumnus Wells Adams.

The two were first attached in November of 2017.

The reality star recently revealed on the Your Favorite Thing pocast, which he co-hosts, that his parents still have not met Sarah's family.

'They both fall on opposite sides of the political spectrum and I’m just sure someone’s going to get into a fight about something,' he said, describing Sarah's parents as liberals and his own parents as conservatives.

He suggested the families might not meet until his wedding, though he hasn't asked Sarah to marry him yet.
