She spent the weekend partying in the California desert, joining a lively crowd at the first installment of this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
By Thursday, however, Emma Roberts had traded the sun-soaked festival vibes of California for the bustling streets of New York City, stepping out in an effortlessly elegant royal blue ensemble.
The 26-year-old *Scream Queens* star, who happens to be the niece of Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts, turned heads in a chic two-piece outfit. Her look featured a short-sleeved sweater paired with a matching mini skirt, both adorned with eye-catching large decorative buttons.
Adding a pop of contrast to her outfit, Emma styled the look with bright yellow heels. Her makeup was kept light and fresh, featuring subtle mascara, eyeliner, and a bubblegum pink lipstick. She completed the look by wearing her auburn hair in a sleek wavy ponytail, exuding understated glamour.
To avoid any wardrobe mishaps, Emma kept a careful hand at the hem of her thigh-skimming skirt as she gracefully climbed into a waiting car. Despite her glamorous appearance in New York, her heart seemed to linger back in California. On social media, she shared a throwback photo from her Coachella adventures. The picture captured her in a chic black dress, playfully tilting her sunglasses as she gazed at the camera, captioned: "Miss you already #coachella."
Emma, who has been in an on-again, off-again relationship with actor Evan Peters, recently opened up about her future aspirations. Speaking to *Who What Wear* for their newly launched *Spring Issue*, she discussed her evolving career and personal growth.
The former child star revealed that after 17 years in Hollywood, she views acting not as the end goal but as a stepping stone to other creative pursuits.
"I'm so happy and grateful I still get to act and do movies and TV, but I'm realizing it's more important to have other interests and other things that make you happy," she explained. "I'm finding a sense of self not just in front of the camera."
Emma expressed a desire to explore other areas in the entertainment industry, such as writing or producing, while admitting she isn't quite ready to step into the director's chair. As she continues to grow and evolve, fans can expect to see Emma branching out beyond acting into new creative ventures.
