She added inches to her height with nude court heels and toted her essentials in a metallic silver mini handbag. 

To complete her look, Andie let her grey curls cascade freely over her shoulders and opted for a naturally radiant makeup look.

It comes after Andie revealed how she stays in great shape as she stunned in a silk silver dress at Cannes Film Festival in France last week. 

‘I love to exercise, I go to yoga and I walk a lot,’ she noted as she went braless in the silky negligee. 

She continued: ‘Everyone talks about ageing arms and I can be hard on myself about my arms because they’re not perfect any more, but they’re actually not that bad.

‘I try to go without sleeves and not cover up too much. They’re not bad!’ 

The Hollywood star also insisted she won’t ‘cover up too much’, adding: ‘When you age, your skin changes, and the way your skin looks changes. 

‘I tell myself, in ten years time you’re going to say those arms were fabulous. Remember what you thought about your legs and all that time that you wasted?

‘So, for me now, I show my arms because I do work out a lot, and they look pretty good.’

The actress, who has previously modelled for brands like Calvin Klein, told the Daily Telegraph newspaper: ‘I think it’s important not to look in the mirror too much.

‘Your substance and your beauty comes from the inside, so I do my skincare and a little make-up before I leave the house, and then I don’t think about it. Just enjoy your life and let the beauty radiate from the inside.’

Andie now wishes she were more lenient on herself during her younger years.

When asked if she would do anything differently, the movie star explained: ‘I would tell my younger self not to worry about what people think. 

She added: ‘To trust myself and feel good about my body.’

Andie also admitted there was a part of her body she did not like: ‘Oh my God. My legs were so great and I didn’t like them because they were athletic,’ said the St Elmo’s Fire star.’

The star previously claimed that she feels ‘too old’ to conform to Hollywood’s beauty standards.

She has enjoyed a successful career in the movie business, but Andie feels female stars continue to face unhealthy pressures.

She told People: ‘I did a fitting and the dress was really tight around my waist. It looks so good, but I woke up and I just knew it was not the right thing for me to do.

‘I wanted to wear something that was comfortable. And, of course, immediately, I shamed myself for not being able to fit into this dress. But that’s Hollywood.’
