Jennifer Garnerrecently took part in the popular "Felt Pretty" social media trend — with her own hilarious twist.
Jennifer shared a video of herself onInstagramon Sunday, Dec. 28. The video begins with a clip of the actress, 53, looking glam in a sleeveless black dress, sparkling earrings, full makeup and an immaculate blowout.
At first, the clip appears to be a fairly routine example of the "Felt Pretty" trend, in which social media users share photos of themselves during moments when they feel confident or beautiful.
However, Garner hilariously subverted expectations, writing, "Felt pretty but then I opened my friend's camera role."
The video then plays a montage of photos of the actress in a variety of goofy, laid-back poses, including napping on a couch, pouring chips into her mouth and a retro high school throwback photo.

Asked if it's difficult to let her children make their own decisions, Garner admitted it's "so hard."
"I mean, my parents did too, and I'm so amazed by that. I have a hard time not saying, 'This is what I see you as,' and 'I think you should,' " she said. "I really have to sit on my hands."
