Jennifer Garner dresses up as a “13 Going on 30” character for Halloween

Jennifer Garner dresses up as a “13 Going on 30” character for Halloween

Jennifer Garner will always be thirty years old, flirtatious and prosperous.

And she has the outfit to prove it. 52-year-old Garner posted a video Instagram on Wednesday, when she herself reenacts the preparation scene from the cult 2004 romance comic “13 Going on 30.”

Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” played in the background, just like in the movie, as the star applied lip gloss, cream, powder and eyeliner. Dressed in a white silk robe, Garner gleefully zoomed in to reveal that the moisturizer was a retinol cream and slipped on her glasses to help her apply her eye makeup.

The “Family Switch” actress, who played the role of Jenna Rink in the film, then went to her closet, where she looked confused as she pulled a pair of Spanx out of a drawer.

It was time for a wardrobe change when Garner wore the same colorful dress that Jenna wore to the work party in the film.

But here Garner ditched the blue heels for a more comfortable alternative. The Golden Globe winner wore white socks, dark pink sneakers and a gray crossbody. Garner also wore the same butterfly necklace her character has in 13 Going on 30.

She then turned around in the bathroom before approving her look in the mirror and exited.

Happy 20th Halloween, Jenna Rink,” Garner captioned her post.

Fans flocked to the comments section to give their stamp of approval and share the revamped app.

Rounding out the sweet messages, one fan mused: “You clearly love this character. many! Why didn’t we get an extension?”

“Love it. Applying eyeliner to glasses is the best,” one user wrote, while another follower chimed in: “And you haven’t aged a day!”

“Please tell me you have Razzles in your purse. #theyreacandyandagum,” one user commented, referring to Jenna Rinks’ choice of candy in the film.

13 Going on 30, which also stars Mark Ruffalo, Judy Greer and Krista B. Allen, follows the unpopular Jenna after she makes a wish on her 13th birthday to be “30, flirty and prosperous “.

She then wakes up as her future 30-year-old self, living the life she thought she always wanted.

In April, Garner, Ruffalo, 56, and Greer, 49, celebrated the project’s 20th anniversary. Trinity published a recorded video chat on their Instagram accounts under the title “13 Going on Boomer.”

#13Continuing 30. Twenty years. We are three boomers who bravely make it because we want to thank you,” reads the caption. “To every person who loved this movie with us: thank you. We see you, we appreciate you, and we love you back. Forever thirty-year-old, flirtatious and prosperous!”
