Jennifer Lopez was all smiles at the YES Scholars 25th Anniversary Gala in Los Angeles, marking the end of summer with a jaw-dropping fashion moment and a peek inside her new home following her divorce from Ben Affleck.
JLo turned heads in a plunging, pastel-hued floral gown by Roberto Cavalli. The fall look was semi-sheer and layered over high-waisted white underwear, embracing the new trend with confidence.

The singer shared glamorous photos while getting ready inside her newly purchased $18 million Hidden Hills mansion, offering fans a first glimpse of her luxurious bachelorette pad following her split from the actor.

Other attendees included Elizabeth Olsen, Ryan Seacrest, Don Johnson, Jason Bateman, Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos, and many more. “An amazing program that empowers high-achieving students from low-income communities,” Lopez wrote on Instagram about YES Scholars, tagging her glam squad and stylists.

We don’t have that many divas. I can count them on one hand. And then how many of them are great dancers, singers and Latin? I think there’s only one.”

He added, “Jennifer shot in a little under four weeks, and then she was done. It was crazy. In any typical musical, you shoot over 12 weeks… She’s doing one number every day, practically.”
