Who could forget the other Bennifer? In 2005, Jennifer Garner married Ben Affleck and gave birth to their first child. The couple would eventually call it quits in 2018, but this shot of a radiantly pregnant Garner, gazing up at her husband in her sophisticated updo, is still so beautiful.Mathew Imaging/FilmMagic/Getty Images
By 2007, Jennifer Garner was experimenting with a sexier spin on her classic look, opting for a choppier, artfully mussed hairstyle, a new smoky eye, and a very of-the-moment nude lip at the MTV Movie Awards — not to mention her illuminating new highlights. Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic/Getty Images
A decade after her industry debut, Jennifer Garner entered the 2010s as a full-fledged A-list movie star — and her upgraded new look proves it. Immaculate skin, chiseled cheeks, and a subtle, warm-toned smoky eye at the 2010 Golden Globes cemented her celebrity.Steve Granitz/WireImage/Getty Images
