That
didn't stop the blonde star from making a striking impression as she
hit up the General Hospital: Celebrating 50 Years and Looking Forward
party on Friday.
Wearing a short-sleeved mini dress patterned with a hallucinatory blend of blue and red, Emme definitely stood out at the celebration which took place at The Paley Centre in Los Angeles.
A pair of neutral pointy heels complimented her outfit as well as her shapely legs.
Her long golden tresses were straight and parted to the side, allowed to cascade over one shoulder.
The 33-year-old North Carolina native was enjoying a double celebration that evening, the party itself and her new General Hospital gig.
Emme's first episode as Lulu Spencer Falconeri on the long-running ABC daytime soap opera aired on Wednesday.
'My first air date for GH is April 11th! #Lulu #GH,' Emme giddily tweeted on April 3.
The mother-of-two - who left her two sons, Jackson, three, and Levi, 17 months, at home with fiance Don Money - enjoyed mingling with the friendly crowd including her new co-star Tyler Christopher.
Cast member Teresa Castillo stood out in a colourful floral frock paired with pink heels.
The hemline stopped at just above the knees and the waist was accentuated by a black band.
Teresa proudly wore her long dark hair loose and wavy, and there were delicate bracelets and necklace to add polish to her Caribbean-inspired creation.
Meanwhile, English actress Finola Hughes chose a form-fitting dress in basic black to wear to the fete.
At 53, Finola looked stunning and slender, just as she did in 1983's Staying Alive opposite John Travolta.
Other party-goers included blonde Laura Wright, who added cheer in a green, ivory and blue loose knit top over a black mini skirt.
Laura slipped into a pair of sexy, strappy heels, which added just the right amount of glamour.
The star-studded party was also attended by Sean Blackmore, Jacklyn Zeman, Chad Duell, Marc Samuel and many others.
