13 Going On 30: My Jenna Rink Halloween Costume

October 4, 2021

Happy October! I think this may be my favorite month of the year. There’s a slight chill in the air here in Virginia that’s making me excited to don my sweaters and boots, go apple-picking, and see the fall foliage. I’m also excited about Halloween this year! I think it’s going to be the first time I have trick-or-treaters.

In the spirit of Halloween, I’m sharing my costume for this year. Inspired by my favorite chick flick, 13 Going on 30, I dressed up as Jenna Rink in the scene where she wakes up as a 30-year-old and wanders into the street in her chemise and coat. The best part? I found the exact same vintage Nanette Lepore coat that Jennifer Garner wears in the movie!

My Jenna Rink Halloween Costume, Inspired by 13 Going on 30

Jacket: Vintage Nanette Lepore | Nightgown/Dress: WACOAL Lace Affair Chemise (Similar options: 1, 2, 3,) | Purse: ASOS 90s Silver Shoulder Bag | Shoes: Dolce Vita Noles Silver Leather High Heel Sandals

While there are so many iconic looks in 13 Going on 30, the one that has always spoken to me the most is the chemise and coat outfit. I knew I wanted to recreate that look in particular for my Jenna Rink Halloween costume.

After lots of digging, I found the exact coat on Wardrobe, a platform that allows you to rent luxury dresses, bags, and shoes. It’s similar to Rent the Runway in concept, except that you are borrowing pieces from an individual’s closet rather than a company’s inventory. I rented the Jenna Rink coat from Court and Kelly’s collection and found the price to be extremely reasonable, especially with the introductory discount code Wardrobe offers. You can get $25 off your first Wardrobe rental when you use my code: 9LC7.

If you want to create your own Jenna Rink Halloween costume, or simply own one of the iconic pieces, another great place to look is @cinemaspells. They find and sell the exact clothes that have been featured in TV shows and movies. In fact, they listed the Nanette Lepore coat in size 6 just last week!

Dressed as Jenna Rink from 13 Going on 30, I couldn’t resist recreating my favorite scene from the movie…
