Jennifer Garner proved that even dressing up in the kitchen can be chic.

The “13 Going on 30” actress shared a new video on Instagram Reels, where she made a healthy treat with a Valentine’s Day spin. Garner repurposed a rubber Pop It tool to hold rows of blueberries and chocolate chips in the video, covering them in her own Once Upon a Farm smoothies before placing them in the freezer. For the occasion, she wore versatile blue jeans with a short-sleeved cream sweater. The comfortable and classic pairing was complete with a gold chain bracelet and diamond ring.

Shoe-wise, the “Love, Simon” actress gave her outfit a sporty twist with Brooks Running sneakers. Garner’s $150 Glycerin 19 style featured black mesh uppers, complete with pale pink rubber soles and metallic pink details. The pair also featured cushioned interiors and soles for added comfort, making them ideal for a casual day at home.
