Angelina Jolie credits “good clothes” as the secret to her slim-down look

After giving birth to twins on July 12, Angelina Jolie dropped out of sight so completely, reports swirled that she was depressed, fighting with Brad Pitt and struggling to lose her baby weight. When she finally stepped out on the red carpet at the NYC premiere of her movie Changeling on Oct. 4 — slim and radiant in a black Versace sheath — she promptly put all those rumors to rest. In fact, Angelina took some time to speak to Life & Style about life with six kids and how she got her body back.

Asked about her amazing slim-down, she joked that “good clothes” were the secret. Of course, a dress can only do so much. “I spend a lot of time running after the kids,” Angie told Life & Style. “That certainly helps. And I’m breast-feeding, which also helps. I have an exercise routine, but I mostly just run around after the kids!”

And although raising 3-month-old Vivienne and Knox may be a challenge, Angie, 33, and Brad, 44, have help — from their four older kids. “The twins are wonderful,” Angelina tells Life & Style. “They have a really special bond. The other kids are really fascinated by them — I think they feel older now that there are new babies around. They try to help, but they’re all still quite young, so they can only do so much.” Still, it’s cute watching them try. “The other kids fawn over the twins,” Brad tells Life & Style. “It’s great.”

And while life is certainly chaotic right now, it’s not overwhelming them. Angelina and Brad offered a peek at how they manage to balance their careers and children while still finding room for romance. “When you have your priorities set, you just make the time,” Angie tells Life & Style. Finding alone time when they’re at home can be more of a challenge. “Even if we lock our door, the children come knocking,” Angelina has said. “We often try to have a bath together at the end of the night and sit and talk, but they hear the water and want to jump in.” They’re not complaining, though, or stopping. “We’re going to have more kids,” Angie has also said, “one way or another.”
