Jennifer Lopez lit up the Brentwood Country Mart during a festive outing that looked straight out of a holiday romantic comedy. The multi-talented superstar was spotted flashing her iconic smile while wrapping up some last-minute Christmas shopping. Accompanied by her assistant and a dashing bodyguard, JLo exuded effortless charm as she browsed for holiday treasures in one of Los Angeles’ most beloved shopping spots.
The “On the Floor” singer epitomized casual glamour in a chic yet cozy ensemble. She wore a stylish oversized tweed coat layered over a classic white crop top, wide-leg denim, and pristine white sneakers. Her outfit struck the perfect balance between comfortable and sophisticated. J.Lo completed the look with oversized sunglasses and a sleek black handbag.
Jennifer’s ever-watchful and undeniably handsome bodyguard added to the scene’s cinematic appeal. Sporting a tailored black blazer and jeans, he carried a festive shopping bag marked with “Peace, Love, Books” as he kept pace beside her.

Another source told the DailyMail that Lopez is not looking to date. “She is focused on her work and wants 2025 to be the year she gets back to being herself. She isn’t actively looking to date right now and is still processing losing Ben again,” the insider added.
