Jennifer Lopez continued her 55th birthday celebrations into the night on Wednesday in The Hamptons as she dined at Nick & Toni’s restaurant.
The Bronx-bred entertainer — who thanked fans for their birthday wishes — dazzled in a nude-toned, sheer, mesh wrap dress covered in silver floral accents.
The crystal beads streamed vertically down the frock, which had a thin, black tie cinching JLo’s trim waist.
The actress donned a champagne-colored strapless corset underneath and rounded out the ensemble with open-toe, black, platform heels.
Lopez was surrounded by friends but her husband Ben Affleck was missing from the celebratory scene as rumors continue to swirl that their two-year marriage is on the outs.

She was surrounded by beautiful flowers and was makeup-free in the two images.
The Selena sensation added a lengthy, thoughtful caption expressing gratitude for all the birthday love she received.
‘I’ve been seeing all of your birthday wishes, beautiful videos, and posts all last night and this morning from all over the world,’ the Hollywood fixture wrote.
It was added: ‘I have laughed, smiled, shed some tears, and when I saw the billboard in Times Square, I was completely overwhelmed. I really do have the best, most amazing fans in the world.
‘I could never express how moved I am or how incredibly blessed I feel to have all of you be a part of my life. Thank you sooooo very much.’
The sweet note went on to say: ‘It’s hard to believe we have spent all this time together. It’s funny as I sit here contemplating on the most extraordinary journey I still feel like the same girl starting out so full of energy and bravado, so ready to take on the whole world on the outside and yet so tender, fragile and sometimes frightened but always full of love on the inside.’

‘Besides my family and friends, you have always been there for me in the good times and in the tough times.
‘I can always count on you. And I want you to know that you can always count on me. Thank you for your caring, your understanding, your loyalty and most importantly your love.
‘Thank you, Thank you, Thank you… Always, Jennifer.’

Jennifer and husband Ben are reportedly drawing on the early days of their romance in an effort to get their marriage back on track, with the estranged pair penning love letters to one another in an attempt to rekindle their strained relationship.
Lopez and Affleck, 51, who reunited in 2021 after first splitting in 2004, have been living separately in recent months and have not been pictured together in weeks.
Despite source saying they were ready to ‘throw in the towel’ months ago, Lopez and Affleck are no longer on the verge of a split and are working to save their union by keeping their relationship out of the spotlight.
‘Jen and Ben agreed it is best to take some time apart so they can really figure out what it is that they want,’ an insider told DailyMail.com.
The insider added, ‘They were ready to throw in the towel. Divorce papers are done and ready to be filed. But they wanted to give it one last go before walking away from this and are going back to the beginning by writing each other letters. This is what made them fall in love in the first place.’
