She may not have won the Critics Choice Award on Friday night, but Dakota Fanning looked happier than ever as she headed out for the night after the glitzy do.
The actress, 30, was all smiles and shared a giggle with Andrew Scott as the pair made their way to celebrity hotspot Chateau Marmont.
The Ripley co-stars couldn’t hold back their laughter as they were seen cracking up as they partied the night away together and held tightly onto each other’s hands.
Dakota looked glamorous as ever in a salmon pink satin dress after stunning on the red carpet on a mint green gown.
She swept a dark blazer over her shoulders to keep warm, which she styled with strappy heels and a small black bag.
The Perfect Couple actress left her blonde locks to flow freely over her shoulders and kept her make-up to a minimum.

Meanwhile, Irish actor Andrew cut a dapper figure in the same ensemble he had earlier stormed the red carpet in.
He looked suave in white trousers and a blush pink shirt, which he styled with a matching satin blazer and slip-on suit shoes.
Earlier in the night, Dakota had turned heads in a mint-coloured mermaid-style gown at the 2025 Critics Choice Awards in Los Angeles.
She was a vision as she walked the red carpet solo, accenting her ensemble with a chunky diamond necklace with a large pendant.
Dakota drew attention to her piercing blue eyes with the addition of sleek, dark eyeliner and mauve-coloured shadow.
Dakota was nominated for a Critics Choice Award in the Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television category for her turn in Ripley.
However, she ultimately missed out on the gong as Jessica Gunning was awarded the prize for her work as Martha in Netflix’s stalker drama Baby Reindeer.
Her co-star Andrew was also nominated for Best Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television, but it lost out to The Penguin’s Colin Farrell.

Dakota and Andrew were both nominated at the Critics Choice Awards for Ripley, but ultimately lost out on the prizes
Based on The Talented Mr Ripley by Patricia Highsmith, a crime classic that inspired an entire genre of psychological thrillers, Ripley was filmed in black and white as a highly stylised noir pastiche.
Irish actor Andrew Scott stepped into the polished brogues previously worn by Matt Damon in the eight-episode series, originally dramatised for the cinema by director Anthony Minghella in 1999.
Speaking with E! News on the red carpet, Dakota reminisced on last month’s Golden Globes, during which she sat with Timothée Chalamet and his girlfriend Kylie Jenner.
‘We had so much fun. It was such a beautiful night,’ she gushed to the outlet.
She added about attending with her younger sibling Elle and their grandmother: ‘Being there with my sister was so wonderful. Our grandmother was my date.
‘And it was just so fun to celebrate [my movie] Ripley and A Complete Unknown for my sister, and most importantly, our sisterhood.’
Other A-listers who were present at the Critics Choice Awards included Angelina Jolie, Zoe Saldaña, and Demi Moore.
The Critics Choice Awards, hosted by Chelsea Handler, took place at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica on Friday, February 7, after being delayed twice due to the LA fires.
