Jennifer Garner: Mother Style we Love

We're always on the look out for moms that are just like us. Jennifer Garner is a mom whose style we absolutely love. She's casual chic (and practical) while running around town, and she looks great on the red carpet. We especially love how she accents her looks with classic jewelry and pieces that can easily be imitated.

Jennifer Garner on the red carpet

Jennifer Garner's day-to-day look is pretty basic. She generally opts for jeans and sweatshirts or t-shirts. She sometimes adds a necklace of interest or a small pair of tasteful earrings to pull the look together. Most of her choices are simple and understated, such as her miniature hoop earrings or small cut out pendant necklaces. Other past favorites have included a colored gemstone cross pendant and a medium length gold coin necklace. One thing's for sure - all of her choices are versatile enough to be worn with multiple outfits, and sensible enough for a mother of two.

When Jennifer Garner dresses up, she knows exactly how to kick her look into high gear. Her red carpet looks have made the pages of every major fashion magazine, and her jewelry certainly does not disappoint. Our favorite look was the one she recently wore to the Academy Awards. Her outfit of choice – a LBD, was taken to a whole different level when she piled on art deco bracelets and a vintage looking necklace. Another time, she upped the glam factor of her LBD with roped diamond strands that proved to add simple elegance. She prefers the style of this necklace, and wore something similar with the addition of a bejeweled cut out floral pendant.

Jennifer Garner doesn't shy away from colored jewelry either. For example, to compliment a plain satin black dress, Jennifer Garner choose colorful light blue tear drop earrings and a matching broach. The pieces were simple and her natural beauty really shone through. For another event, she donned garnet and canary double drop earrings with a LBD for a striking and unique look. Whatever she wears, Jennifer Garner tops our list!
