While I was obsessively refreshing Taylor Swift's Insta page for wedding photos casually viewing Instagram, I was quite surprised at the latest post from Friends star Jennifer Aniston. Sure, she's relatively new to IG so every post is a treat. But in this case, she gave us a rare glimpse of her boyfriend, Jim Curtis.
Last night, Aniston, 57, shared a "summer dumper" (her words, definitely not mine) featuring pics of recent memories, celeb friends and her beloved dogs. And while I was happy to see so many familiar faces—like Billy Crudup and Naomi Watts—it was the first shot of her beau that truly caught my eye.
In the image, Aniston, in sunnies and a black top, is taking a selfie through the front seat of a car. On the other side stands Curtis, 50, smiling and wearing a casual tee and jeans. The best part? Aniston's body language, which says a lot.
First of all, there's her choice of pose. She's pursing her lips in a kiss, showing off a fun and playful side (surely a sign that she's enjoying her day with her boyfriend). And then there's the casualness of it all. She seems super relaxed, at ease in her surroundings (another sign that she and Curtis are comfortable being themselves around one another).
Aniston's laid-back energy and body language continues throughout the carousel. She looks to be right at home with her friend in the second slide. And in the third image where Crudup and Watts pop up, we get another glimpse of her chill vibes, showing off relaxed shoulders and a subtle, comfy smile.
Each image in the "dumper" paints her life not as a glammed up, overly-produced Hollywood one. Rather, she simply seems to be enjoying herself and living her best life (some famous friends in tow).
This latest post isn't the first we've seen of Curtis on her IG though…
Back in November, Aniston shared a black-and-white pic where she has her arms wrapped around Curtis. The caption read, “Happy birthday my love [red heart emoji] Cherished.”
This November post marked the first time the Morning Show actress officially acknowledged her boyfriend online, though they had been spotted with one another IRL on previous occasions.
Also late last year, in an Elle interview, Aniston briefly mentioned Curtis, revealing he’s a hypnotist and transformational coach.

She said at the time, “Hypnotism is one of the many things that he does. He’s quite extraordinary, and helps many, many people.”
She added, “He’s very special, very normal, and very kind, and wants to help people heal, move through their trauma and stagnation into clarity. It’s a beautiful thing to commit your life to.”
Guess I now have to keep refreshing Taylor and Jennifer's IG pages…
Jennifer Aniston and Friends Show Off Stunning Summer Styles
These days, when people say something is basic, they don’t always mean it in a flattering way. But when it comes to wardrobe staples, basic is anything but boring. Just look at the ways Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Garner, and Joanna Gaines have been wearing them.
All three stars recently wore mix-and-match pieces that are the foundation of any great capsule wardrobe. Aniston paired vintage-wash jeans with a fitted black tank for a sleek, casual look, and Garner dressed up light-wash jeans with a luxe-looking, short-sleeve polo shirt. As for Gaines, she went monochromatic in black jeans and a loose-fitting tank.
If you’re also now inspired to upgrade your own staples, keep scrolling for lookalike Quince clothing pieces starting at $16.
Jennifer Aniston’s Minimalist Masterclass
Aniston’s minimalist tank top and jeans combo is a go-to for her, and we can see why. To recreate her effortless ensemble, we found this Quince tank top with a modest scoop neck, fitted silhouette, and thick straps. It’s made of breathable cotton that’s lightweight enough for summer but can also be layered in the fall and winter. Team it with this pair of jeans, which has a vintage-inspired wash similar to the actress’s. The wide-leg style makes them a comfortable choice whether you’re running errands or heading to lunch.
Jennifer Garner’s Polished Polo
If your style favors classic silhouettes, Jennifer Garner’s sunset look belongs in your closet. Her timeless polo shirt looks nearly identical to this Quince one, which is made of soft, luxe cashmere. It has ribbed, fitted arms, a mid-sized collar, and an adjustable button-front neckline. Shoppers say it’s “lightweight enough for warm weather,” with one noting they “didn’t feel hot at all” wearing it on a 90-degree day. When it comes to her jeans, this lightwash pair is a great option with its subtle heathering at the hips and traditional five-pocket design. The barrel silhouette isn’t overwhelming, and reviewers call them “comfortable in all the right places.”
Joanna Gaines’ Black Basics
Basics are timeless, but that doesn’t mean they can’t also feel modern. Gaines’ monochromatic look proves that. Like this Quince top, her tank has a breezier fit with a subtle curve along the arms, and yes, while it looks good on its own, it’s also great for styling under linen button downs in summer and cardigans come fall. Our personal favorite piece of her look, though, is the sleek, flared jeans. Achieve the same style with Quince’s Luna pair, which mirrors Gaines’ silhouette and has built-in stretch for comfortable, all-day wear and a just-right mid-rise fit.
