Burton, who played Peyton Sawyer on the series, opted to go with a black and red sparkling suit that consisted of pants that hugged her hips while flaring out from the knees down.
The matching top was left unbuttoned just enough to give a hint of her cleavage.
The 50-year-old Sterling, Virginia, native also went with platform heels and had her long locks pulled back off her face, with the exception of some strands she left falling over her left eye.
