Andrea rocked the stylish dress with silver chain sleeves, teaming the look with simple white pointed-toe heels.
Rocking a single sparkled drop earrings, Andrea rocked heavy black eyeliner in contrast to all her other make-up being completely natural, and had her blonde cropped her slicked back in a neat side part.
Andrea shocked her fans earlier in the day when she revealed her harrowing sexual harassment ordeal, disclosing that such behaviour happens to her every week.

Speaking to Five News, the star said: ‘Sexual inappropriacy in my industry? Absolutely. Almost every week.’
‘It makes it so just difficult sometimes to get out of bed because you have to feel like you bolster yourself. You know those bumpers in the two lanes when you go bowling? I go out there with two of them, metaphorically, every day.’
‘Until you’re, as a woman, in that situation, the pressure that you feel and that awkwardness and the inappropriate comments. The way that makes you feel, what it does to you, eventually it’s psychologically very damaging.’
Andrea made the shocking revelation in light of the Harvey Weinstein scandal that has surfaced over the past week, with over 30 Hollywood actresses alleging that the film boss sexually assaulted or harassed them.

The Armando Iannucci-directed picture will be released in UK cinemas this Friday.
Armando recently told The Guardian how easy it was to make the film historically accurate, but remaining comedic.
He said: ‘When we were researching it, we found out things like Vasily, Stalin’s son, really did lose the ice-hockey team in a plane crash. And because the comedy is the comedy of hysteria, you want to be true to what happened and how people responded.
‘So anything that was so-bizarre-and-yet-true was a candidate for going in. I thought about having “This is a true story…”, but then I thought, no, just watch it for what it is, and it would be great if you subsequently found out that the bulk of it was true.’
