Let's talk about beauty and style, shall we? For many celebrities, the red carpet is their moment to shine, to dazzle the world with their glamorous looks. But for Jennifer Garner, the real magic happens when she can kick off her heels and slip into something far more comfortable—like a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. In a candid chat with People magazine, covering their Most Beautiful issue for 2019, Jen opened up about her preference for casual comfort over high-fashion glamour.
“I try so hard to get out of those fancy outfits,” Jennifer admitted, referring to the designer gowns she dons for red carpet events. “But sometimes life just doesn’t give you a break. You're rushing from one thing to the next, and there's no time to shower and change into my real uniform, which is jeans, a cozy sweater, and sneakers.” It’s a sentiment many of us can relate to—sometimes, comfort trumps style every single time.
Her Kids Prefer Mom in a Sweater and Sneakers
Even when Jennifer does go all out for an event, her kids aren’t exactly impressed. When she gets home, they remind her of who she truly is to them—their mom. “They’ll look at me and say, ‘Can you wash your face? Can you put your hair in a ponytail and put your glasses and sweats on?’” Jen revealed. “And I see the compliment in that. They just want me to look like Mom.”

For Jennifer, being a mom is about more than just appearances. It’s about being the best possible version of herself for her family. And if that means trading in the glitz and glamour for something more practical, she’s all for it. Her kids’ preference for her casual style is a testament to their love and acceptance of her as their mom, not a Hollywood star.
Growing Up Without the Pressure of Beauty Standards
Jennifer Garner’s relationship with beauty and fashion has always been unique. Ever since she was a child, she wasn’t into the typical girly things like makeup and fancy clothes. “Looks weren’t a big deal in my family,” she recalled. “I don’t think my parents ever said, ‘You’re pretty,’ and so we just didn’t think about it.”
Instead of focusing on appearance, Jennifer developed a strong sense of self-worth that wasn’t tied to traditional beauty standards. She described her childhood style as “band geek-chic,” but she never felt insecure about her looks. In fact, she felt quite the opposite. “I was so not one of the pretty girls that I just bypassed insecurity and didn’t see myself as attractive at all. It was not part of my life,” she said. “I felt good about myself back then! That is the lucky trick.”
