Jennifer Garner was busy helping President Joe Biden and the White House get into the Christmas spirit as she hosted the annual festive show.

The 49-year-old actress looked every inch ready for Christmas as she sparkled in an emerald dress by Oscar De La Renta, paired with black 4-inch heels from Roger Vivier, complete with a sparkly detail to match.

Jennifer Garner shared a post to Instagram which showed her wearing the outfit, as she credited the team around her for their styling skills.

She described the experience of hosting the annual White House show as “an absolute honor” in a post that tagged First Lady Jill Biden as well as her stylists.

The caption read: “Hosting “In Performance at the White House: Spirit of the Season” for @pbs— alongside my friend, @flotus— was an absolute honor. Filled with holiday favorites from our most beloved artists, tonight’s special will add meaning to your holiday season, I promise. ✨?♥️ #WhiteHouseConcertPBS (Tonight! 12/21, 8/7C!).”

Genevieve Herr, who was credited with Jennifer’s make-up look, also shared a photo on her own Instagram, which showed the actress standing alongside Jill Biden.

She wore a stunning red coat over her outfit, and the two women stood next to a large Christmas tree.

“In Performance at the White House: Spirit of the Season” was filmed at the White House and featured performances from acclaimed artists including Camilla Cabello, Andrea Bocelli, Norah Jones, and the Jonas Brothers.

It is the first Christmas that President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill Biden, have celebrated in the White House after the 46th President was sworn into office at the beginning of this year.

Jennifer Garner, who told fans she hoped the performances would add “meaning” to their holiday season, shares three children with actor Ben Affleck.

The 49-year-old Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice star appeared on Howard Stern’s radio show last week and came under criticism when he suggested his previous alcohol problem was a result of being married to Jennifer Garner.

Jennifer Lopez‘s boyfriend stated: “I’d probably still be drinking. It’s part of why I started drinking … because I was trapped.”

When he faced backlash for the comment, instead of apologizing, he explained: “It said that I had blamed my ex-wife for my alcoholism, that I was trapped in this marriage — just made me out to be the worst, most insensitive, stupid, awful guy. I don’t believe that — it’s the exact opposite of who I am, what I believe, and I would never want my kids to ever say a bad word about their mom.”

Fans of the actress were quick to jump to her defense on social media and pointed out that Garner had taken Affleck to rehab in 2018 after they divorced.

Observers say that Jennifer Garner’s stunning look at the White House shows that she is doing just fine.
