Always one to look stylish, Lopez looked chic in a white blouse with a plunging neckline and ruffled detailing, tucked into high-waisted denim jeans cinched with a brown leather belt. She layered the look with a brown blazer and platform heels.

An empty nest soon 

As Lopez's twins, who share with Marc Anthony, continue to grow up, she will soon be an empty nester. In the October 6 episode of Live With Kelly and Mark, she revealed that they are already visiting colleges. “It’s crazy. We're visiting a college today,” she said. “It's happening. They're leaving. They're going.”

For Lopez, seeing her children grow up is a bittersweet moment. “I'm happy because I remember how exciting that time of my life was when I was like, ‘Oh, I'm figuring out what I want to do with my life,’” she explained. “It’s an exciting adventure, and I want that for them. But I also think, ‘Oh, I’m gonna be by myself.’”

Despite the looming empty-nest years, JLo has made it clear that she wants Max and Emme to always feel at home. “Since they were born, I was like, whatever this is, whatever we create, the three of us together, it's going to be something that they always are like, ‘When I go home, it feels good. It smells like home, it tastes like home.’ All of it,” the 56-year-old said. “I always concentrated on that with them, and I feel like we've created that.”

As for what the future holds for the twins, they've lived a relatively private life when it comes to their interests. But in September, JLo did reveal that one of them is doing musical theater. “I have a musical theatre kid right now and so I’m living my best life," she said. “They go away for camp for musical theatre, and they do all the shows. And I get to go see them, and it’s fantastic.”

While she did not reveal who it was, she and Emme attended Broadway musicals earlier this year. Plus, Emme famously joined her on stage at the Super Bowl in 2020. So we may one day soon see Emme following in her parents' musical footsteps.
