Jennifer Garner Just Went Cozy Bronde in Time for the Holidays

Need a way to brighten up the gloomy days of fall and winter? According to Jennifer Garner, warming up your hair color can do the trick.

On November 13, Garner debuted a new shade at the International Medical Corps Annual Awards in Beverly Hills. While we’re used to the actor’s signature soft chestnut brown, especially at her roots, her new look is a few steps warmer all over. It even appears to bring in some subtle red undertones (although it’s possible we’re projecting nostalgia for her iconic Alias wig).

Along with the new base color, Garner added subtle caramel highlights and medium-length face-framing layers. Last night’s look, styled with soft glossy waves, also made a strong case for the return of the side part.
