The value behind Aniston’s look, is that she appears on-trend and chic without attempting to be on-trend or chic.

Beyond that, she looks put together in the most effortless of ways.
In this post, we break down Jennifer Aniston’s girl-next-door glam and put together a wardrobe inspired by her southern Californian style and charm.
How old is Jennifer Aniston?
Aniston shot into the spotlight with Friends in the 90s and she’s never been off our big and small screens since.
She’s now winning rave reviews for her performance in The Morning Show and, after turning 52 in February, she’s never looked better.
So, what does it take to achieve Jennifer Aniston style?
Simplicity and taste would be the two leading words to describe how to achieve the Jennifer Aniston look.
However, don’t let her appreciation for a simple approach to dressing fool you. Aniston is known for gettingeven her t-shirts tailored.
What she understands is that every piece must fit extremely well to be as flattering as possible.
Furthermore, if you look through numerous photos of her off-camera style, you’ll notice repeats of pieces combined in new ways.
She is definitely a fan of the capsule wardrobe.
Steal her look above with this similar top, bootcut pants and clutch.
Building on these two pillars of taste and simplicity, the keys to channeling Aniston’s sartorial choices are:
Working with a very neutral palette
Aniston does not shy away from all black, however, the bronzy take to her hair, golden accessories, and glowing makeup help to keep all black looks from becoming too overpowering.
Appreciating denim and khakis
Most of her off-screen, streetstyle consists of tailored jeans and khakis that fit incredibly well. She pairs them with everything from leather jackets to longline dusters.
Golden tones
Part of Aniston’s appeal is how she exudes southern Californian warmth. She opts for bronze and golden tones through her makeup, hair, and accessories.
Putting a hat on it
She loves panamas, fedoras, and wide brim hats. They are extremely flattering on her frame and are an accessory that brings the whole look together.
Keeping yourself healthy
Aniston has the type of body envied by almost every age group. She is a big advocate of staying healthy, and wearing pieces that flatter her body shape. This confidence shines through whether she has on a pair of jeans or a $10,000 evening gown.
Knowing what suits you
If you look at images of Jennifer over the years, you will see that she sticks to timeless basics and the same shapes that she knows will fit and flatter her. But, despite not being a slave to fashion trends, she manages to look very current.

The Jennifer Aniston wardrobe
You can see below that no matter whether looking at Jennifer Aniston’s casual style or her red carpet looks, she stills to a simple yet striking outfit. Let’s take a look…
Jennifer Aniston outfits: tops
Jennifer is a huge fan of keeping it simple when it comes to her tops.
She’s often seen in a white tee, which she tends to wear with jeans and a blazer, as well as investing in other classics such as white vests and button-down shirts.
Day-to-day, it’s very unusual to see her in anything other than a t-shirt, vest top or button down shirt, all in shades of black, white and gray.

Jennifer is the queen of the little black dress.
I’ve seen her in so many styles over the years, and she looks great in all of them. But she also loves to rock red, and white, on the red carpet.
She often goes sleeveless to show off her toned arms and wears more dresses than skirts, but when she does choose a skirt, she usually opts for a classic pencil style.
I’ve also frequently spotted Jen wearing leather, to add some subtle sex appeal to an otherwise classic outfit.

Jennifer Aniston talks about style and confidence
I love the thoughts and advice from Jennifer below. What do you think about what she has to say?
1. She wears the same clothes multiple times
“I almost resent the whole fashion thing. Good God – never wearing the same thing twice and all those things. It’s a pain in the ass.”
2. On body confidence
“When I was young, I took a lot for granted and would beat myself up over things that were unnecessary. Now, it’s like whatever state I’m in, whatever shape my body’s in, I think you just have to really appreciate that this is what’s beautiful. This is you!”
3. On feeling sexy
“I feel sexy in my jeans and wearing my boyfriend’s T-shirt.”
4. On aging
“You know I’ve got wrinkles on my forehead and smile lines, but what’s wrong with that? I love to smile.”
5. On inner confidence
Feeling good comes from within. Loving who you are and being kind to yourself are the keys to confidence.
