Jennifer Lopez brought her younger sister along with her for a Met Gala afterparty.

On Tuesday, Lopez's sister Lynda Lopez shared a photo of herself posing with the Shotgun Wedding actress, 53, as the two attended Baz Luhrmann and Stella McCartney's afterparty together following fashion's biggest night at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday.

51-year-old Lynda's photo shows her smiling for the camera while a blinking Jennifer poses close to her sister, showing off a clear Lopez familial resemblance.

"#Aboutlastnight Stayed up late wayyyy too many nights this week," Lynda, a journalist and author, wrote in a caption to her photo, adding: "#mamasnightout ❤️"

The sisters each wore matching black outfits to the afterparty; Jennifer wore a handmade Ralph Lauren midriff-baring halter gown and pink silk satin skirt to the Met Gala itself.
