Love It or Hate It? Jessica Alba Amplifies the Glamour

Wed, 09/10/2008 - 6:00am by bellasugar

Looks like motherhood is treating Jessica Alba very well. Although we've seen Jessica wear dramatic makeup before, this is the first time in a while that she's looked so Sophia Loren-style glamorous. Guess when you have a front-row seat to the Narciso Rodriguez show and are next to other famous ladies, you go all-out. Do you like this change of pace for Jessica, or do you prefer her more low-key looks instead?

It's pretty, but something is just off for me. You can tell she is new mommy and needed a bit more under eye concealer Smiling

love the look..look the makeup..too bad she is a mega b*tch. She has a stare that could make your skin peel its so b*tchy...trust me..from personal experience all the pretty make up hides an ugly beast!

I really hope that those who are calling her bad names actually have real life experiences with her to back them up, because otherwise you're all being cruel. I think she looks lovely here and I'm so glad she's done with the blonde look for the time being. It never flattered her skin as well as her dark hair does. The eye make-up is a bit heavy, but overall she looks great. Smiling

She looks lovely here, despite her surly demeanor. I would say it's more J. Lo than Sophia Loren. Sophia Loren is in a league of her own.

jadeangel25 - yes personal expereince. She was staying in my buliding while in Vancouver shooting a movie. My building is very friendly people say hi in the hallways and its a nice place to live...very nicely decorated downtown Vancouver.

Ran into her while I was getting out of the elevator and I said Hi (and not in a freaky way...just a normal hi) as she was coming in...gave me the once over, then decided I was too hot, not hot enough, whatever it is that made me scum and gave me the look that translated to "Please you are not seriously talking to me and expecting me to say hi back"...and walked by me without looking at me or talking to me. Hm..how dare un famous people talk to her...made me feel like I was something dirty to be scraped off her boot.

Lather Rinse Repeat for many people's expereinces in the building running into her...or just happen to cross her poor path. Same goes for my friend who worked at BCBG downtown. She is very demanding...b*tchy and horribly insecure.

I need to know how to look this way immediately.

as such a naturally beautiful woman, she definitely does not need all of this makeup. i think it actually makes her less pretty. there's way too much concealer under her eyes, which, i guess, is understandable since she just had a baby.

I don't think she looks Sophia Lauren glamorous, she looks great, but she has looked better, she looks a little of, like if she hadn't slept enough, maybe it's having a baby I dunno, but she really looks like she could use some rest.

She looks WAY better with less makeup. I think her heavy use of the eyeliner makes her eyes look smaller, which is surely not what she's going for here?

I like her look here. The dark hair is so much more natural and flattering. This is a semi-smile here like she knows people are going to b*tch if she doesn't attempt one.

Reese Witherspoon threw together a bohemian chic ensemble for an afternoon of shopping in LA. She casually paired an ikat miniskirt with a plain white tank and beige cardigan, while her gladiator sandals tied in nicely with her beaded necklace and cross-body Marni purse.
