Mae looked chic in a cap sleeved mint dress adorned with zebra stripes. She paired the eye-catching dress with a simple pair of black mules, adding a pop of color with a statement red lip. 

Her two toned tresses were down in soft waves as she triumphantly posed next to Jane’s cover. 

And the red-haired beauty shined both on an off the cover while debuting the upcoming issue at the Women of Influence party in Beverly Hills.  

Jane shined in a magenta set, pairing a blouse with elegant matching trousers. The wide-legged pants showed off her slender frame and she also played up her look with a red lip.

A celebration of female empowerment, Levy’s boyfriend Thomas McDonell was not present for the outing but he was the catalyst for she and Mae’s friendship. 

In a joint interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the ladies spoke about their origin story, Mae sharing they hit it off immediately after linking up at a ‘cool weird bar’ in LA.  

‘I came around the corner and Jane was sitting in this giant booth with a big-a** shrimp cocktail right in front of her face. It was just these big, blue, clear eyes probing into my soul the second that we met, and I was so jolted and scared but also excited,’ the Parenthood actress shared. 

Levy continued to sing her friend’s praises as well. ‘I was just so struck by how cool [she was] — and I hate to use the term down-to-earth, which is an unfortunate phrase that we use about people but she really is just such a real person. But beyond being a real person she’s the most incredibly charming and generous person to be around.’ 

Gushing: Jane hit it home with the ultimate compliment as she gushed over her friend: 'Everyone's dream best friend is you...and everyone is jealous of me because I get to be your best friend'

Their night continued afterwards with Succession star Nicholas Braun and the trio busted out their best Mariah Carey renditions at karaoke, further solidifying their friendship.  

Speaking to the publication the ladies proceeded to hype each other up, sharing that despite being in the same industry it’s all love and both have even recommended the other for roles.  

‘We’ve been known to both go into auditions and be like, “We are not right for this but my friend is actually the person for this.” We’ve both done that,’ said Mae. 

And Jane hit it home with the ultimate compliment as she gushed over her friend. ‘Everyone’s dream best friend is you…and everyone is jealous of me because I get to be your best friend, which makes me feel good,’ she said, as they shared a laugh.
