Jennifer Aniston celebrated her 56th birthday on Thursday and it wasn't just her fans sending the actress well wishes on her special day.
Jennifer's Friends co-star and real-life bestie Courteney Cox took to Instagram to pay tribute to the fellow actress and also shared an epic throwback photo.

The corset-style top, which featured an asymmetrical floaty hem, was paired with black waist-sculpting pants, open-toed heels, and small gold hoop earrings. Her brunette shoulder-length hair with honey-toned highlights.
Best friend love
Jennifer beamed alongside 38-year-old Courteney who looked angelic in a pair of slim-fit white pants and a sparkly top. Both actresses looked glowing with sunkissed skin and luminous makeup looks.

Jennifer's noughties style
The Marley & Me actress was nothing short of a noughties style icon. She kicked off the decade in style at the 7th Annual Vanity Fair Oscar Party in March 2000, donning a plunging slinky gown and sparkly choker alongside her then-fiance Brad Pitt.
