Courteney Cox, 54, looks chic in black and white as she heads to dinner at Craig's in West Hollywood

Courteney Cox, 54, was spotted Tuesday evening going to dinner at Craig's in West Hollywood.

The Friends actress looked sophisticated and chic in a white blazer over a white blouse, tucked into a pair of black jeans.

She completed the look with a pair of black six-inch stilettos and some gold aviator eyeglasses that matched her gold hoop earrings.

Cox wore her hair back and carried a black purse with a wide strap over her shoulder as she walked into the restaurant, smiling at the cameras outside.

Earlier Tuesday, Cox posted a pair of side-by-side photos to Instagram of the same purple cocktail dress 21 years apart.

In the first photo, Cox modeled the look in 1998 - and the other was a current snapshot of the same dress on her 14-year-old daughter Coco Arquette.

'I’m not one to hold onto things but this was a damn good purchase! 21 years later...,' wrote the Cougartown actress.

Cox wore the dress to the Hollywood premiere of the casino thriller Snake Eyes, an event she attended with Coco's father David Arquette.

David was the scene-stealer that night, wearing a shimmering top in screamingly bright scarlet with a matching hat and slacks.

Neither Cox nor David was in the film, which was directed by Brian De Palma of Carrie and Scarface fame and starred Nicolas Cage, Gary Sinise and Carla Gugino.

Cox told People of Coco last year: 'I want her to tell me everything, and she doesn’t want to tell me anything. Exactly the opposite of the childhood I had.'

The mother-of-one, who is no longer with Coco's father, shared: 'We bicker, let’s be honest, but we love each other. We laugh a lot, for sure.' 

David and Cox co-starred in all four Scream movies, the first of which bowed in 1996 and the most recent of which was released in 2011.

They married in 1999 in San Francisco and in 2004 welcomed Coco, whose godmother is Cox's Friends co-star Jennifer Aniston.

The couple went public with their separation in October 2010, a month after Scream 4 wrapped filming and half a year before it bowed in theaters.

Within the next two years, the divorce was finalized, and Cox has spent nearly the past half-decade engaged to Snow Patrol's Johnny McDaid.

'We're not married. I'm married in my heart,' Cox said in a People interview this past autumn, dismissing the legal title as 'a label.'
