She recently nabbed a role in the upcoming romantic comedy A Christmas Arrangement.
And Nicky Welan, 37, looked every inch the budding big screen starlet as she stepped out at the Kings & Queens art exhibition at Hills Penthouse in Hollywood on Thursday.
Clad in a tangerine-hued crop top that revealed a glimpse of her taut torso, the former Neighbours star certainly stole the spotlight as she posed against the media wall.

She completed her red carpet ensemble with a pair of silky black harem trousers that skimmed past her gym-honed gams and an array of gold statement jewelry.
The appearance comes days after Nicky announced that she’s set to star in the upcoming Jake Helgren-directed holiday romance A Christmas Arrangement.
She will play the role of Poppy Benson, a flower shop owner who enters a florist competition against her love interest Garrett Hurley, played by Mad Men’s Miles Fisher.

While Nicky’s career is advancing steadily, she has experienced heartbreak in her personal life.
She married former NFL star Rhodes in April last year but ended their marriage just a few months later.
‘I can confirm that I have left him,’ she told The Daily Telegraph in October, adding: ‘But other than that I am not willing to comment any further, because anything else I say is going to make things tricky.’

The announcement came as even more of a surprise given the couple had made a high profile visit to Australia just the month before the sad news.
Previously a picture of Kerry with his arm around his assistant Alton Craig emerged, forcing the sports star to publicly address speculation surrounding his sexuality.
‘Photos have been circulating of my former assistant and I that have caused some rumors regarding my sexuality, and I wanted to address the situation,’ he told TMZ.
‘I am not gay. The shots were taken during a past vacation in a casual environment with my entire business team.
‘I know a lot of people are recently talking about athletes struggling to come out to their fans right now, and I support them, as well as wish those individuals comfort.’
