The planet Venus has just passes the "inferior conjunction", when it goes between the Sun and the Earth. Venus now appears as a VERY bright object low in the eastern horizon just before sunrise. This is probably what you are seeing.
Venus will rise earlier and earlier for the next 2-3 months as it races ahead of Earth in its orbit; then it will start to rise later and later until it goes behind the Sun about 4 months from now.

What is that really bright star in the sky just after sunset?
That actually not a star but the planet Venus.You could also be referring to the planet Mercury. It can be seen just before Sunrise and just after Sunset. As mercury is nearest planet to the Sun, it is always seen very close to the Sun in the Sky. We can't see it in the morning because the is too bright and at night it is below the horizon. Hence, it is visible only for a few moments just before Sunrise and just after Sunset very near the horizon.
