Party like it's her birthday! Nina Dobrev celebrated her 27th birthday with an emoji-theme bash at Aventine in L.A. on Saturday, January 9.

The Vampire Diaries alum partied with her boyfriend, Austin Stowell, 31, and friends including Nick Jonas, Hailee Steinfeld, Adam DeVine, Chace Crawford, Derek Hough, Julianne Hough and Seth McFarlane. 

"They seem super happy together," an insider at the bash told Us Weekly of Dobrev and her hunky actor boyfriend. "They have a really great genuine connection."

Stowell and Dobrev began dating last July and made their first red carpet appearance together at the NYC premiere of his film Bridge of Spies.

"They kissed and held hands a few times but he gave her her space and took a step back to watch her enjoy her special night with her closest friends," the source added of the couple.
