 The Mad Men star's deep red attire clung to her figure in all the right places and featured a low-cut at the front.

The actress paired the gorgeous ensemble with a pair of vintage cat-eye sunglasses and dainty pair  of black satin heels.

As well as carrying her vintage lamp, which she had repaired at Fantasy Lighting on Melrose Ave, Christina had a large tan handbag flung over her shoulder.

Christina's attire perfectly complemented her creamy complexion and fiery red hair, and of course she completed the look with lashings of red lipstick.

The Hollywood bombshell recently discussed her love of all things vintage in a recent interview with Harper's Bazaar's YouTube show The Look.

She reveals that she has been seeking out thrift store finds since the age of about ten.

'I lived in Twin Falls, Idaho, and there weren't a lot of shops,' she said.

'I learned very early on to go to the Salvation Army and just little vintage stores, and create my own looks. Oftentimes tragic...'

'There were some very original looks that I put together. I had my goth phase, which was pretty... dramatic.'

Another source of knowledge and inspiration, has of course, been Mad Men.

She credits the show's costume designer, Janie Bryant, with steering her towards fitted silhouettes that flatter her curvy figure.

'I've learned a lot from being on Mad Men actually, as far as tailoring, silhouettes and things like that,' she continued. 'Janie Bryant, our costume designer, she's taught me a lot.

'I think I have a lot more pencil skirts. I used to like very sort of 1920s baggy, sort of floral lacy things that probably weren't the most flattering on me, but were just so gorgeous that I wore them anyway.'
