One thing I love about Alicia Keys: She's always taking risks with her style, something that too few stars seem to do these days. Her latest look centers on a jeweled hair accessory called a tikka. They're traditionally worn for special events in India, and if you like the Bollywood look, these tikkas aren't too expensive. Do you like this style choice, or could you do without it?

I like the lashes, but the shadow is way too metallic for me. I always think that about her eye makeup...it's 80s-frosty.

Her earrings looke like dead mice with jewellery on.

ahah tiggy, so true. is she...about to fall asleep? she probably should have chosen an eyeshadow look that opened up her eyes more

Don't like the earrings or the thing coming down from her head. The make up is great though!
5
Too much silver !
6
Her makeup is great, but she has too much other stuff going on with her looks..the earring, the tikkas, the silver on her dress.
7
too much going on! if she wanted to do the head-thingy she should have skipped the earrings or vice versa ... way too much gray.
8
She looks like she slept late and just threw her hair up, put on some giant earrings, and put on way too much eyeshadow.

I hate saying it, but sometimes lifting looks from a different cultures can look costume-y unless you are really subtle about it. I mean, if I wore a traditional African headdress or jewelry (I'm the whitest girl ever) I might get some strange looks too. But in the end, I think that horrid eyeshadow is probably what really kills it, not the multi-cultural sampling.

good concept, but executed it looks like bird droppings on her forehead.
11
She looks like she escaped from somewhere and should be re-admitted ASAP.
12
I don't know how I feel about the tikka, but her face looks really pretty 
Less is more.

Yuk, do not like the forehead....

I don't like the tikka or the earings, but her makeup looks great. I have to give her credit though because she is always changing her look and is never boring!
17
i hate the earrings.. the tikka is unique, i like that however, i hate the frosty
eyeshadow and i think she could use a bit more eyeliner on the bottom.. not TOO much, just a little to define her eyes more
Whoa. I hadn't seen the look up close prior to this pic. You know how they say you should get dressed and then stand in front of the mirror and remove one thing before you leave the house?
In this case, Ms. Keys should have left her ultra swanky hotel room without those earrings! I agree with tiggy, they do look like dead mice!
The dress was amazing, she should have toned it down a bit. The tikka, isn't my taste per se, but I think it's a cute addition.

I love tikkas, but hers is kinda crooked! 
I love the tikka look, but she would have looked better if her hair was parted straight down the middle and slicked down a bit. She really didn't put much effort into her hair 
It's too... silver.
22
okay she looks ridiculous
23
Dont like the whole look even the dress!
24
The earings look horrid
25
is it just me, or does it not even look straight/centered on her forehead? Or is it supposed to look like that?
26
I hate everything about this - the tikka is just wierd, the earrings are distracting, the eyeshadow is too blegh, and she looks sleepy - what happened?! she usually looks gorgeous, but the hair is blah, the makeup is awful, and the dress was ugly...
