Yay or Nay: Jessica Biel Wears a Feather Peplum?

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday August 20, 201280 comments


Jessica Biel is proof that while you can take the girl out of the wholesome family tv show, you can never take the wholesome family tv show out of the girl. No matter what Ms. Biel wears, no matter what edgy haircut she has going on, all I can picture when I look at her is Mary from Seventh Heaven. 

Which brings us to this week's Yay or Nay. Before we get into deep discussion about Jessica's outfit this week, I need to say that I actually love the whole she-bang she has going on here, I just don't love it on her. Maybe you'll agree with me; here's Jessica's look at the London premiere of Total Recall: 

 
 
Let's start at the top: her hair and makeup. Blunt bangs, long locks and natural ombre? Um, can you say gorge? Her makeup is simple, nothing crazy but sleek and sophisticated. Like, like, like. 

Moving on to the outfit. A feather peplum? I've fallen in love and I don't care who knows it. Lace, sheer, embellished goodness? Give me some of that with some extra on top! And the coral shoes to give a pop of colour? Sheer, genius. 

Now, all together on her? I have to say, it falls a bit flat. I want to see Diane Kruger in this outfit. Or maybe Carrie Mulligan. But Jessica Biel? She's a pretty face but she's got no spunk. You need to be confident and edgy to pull this outfit off. Jessica's just not delivering it for me. 


What do you think of this outfit chicks? Is it way over the top? Was I unfair to Ms. Biel? Is it really just the dress and not her? Leave a comment below by August 26th and you could win a prize! ]

Nay, I don't think it looks good on her at all.

YAY. I'm not a big fan of the dress, but she does pull it off. The shoes are a nice pop of colour too.

Nay. It does remind me of a chicken that had run in with a coyote!

I'm going with Nay just because I think there are too many textures happening at once with the feathers, the lace, partly sheer top, collar and cuffs, and bead work.

I would say Yay! She looks great.
1. Firstly, Jess is wearing a terrific white dress which suits her.
2. Secondly, I absolutely love those high-heels. The fact is they are bright and do not match the style of the dress. Somehow, everuthing looks perfect.
3. Last but not least, the hairstyle and the make-up turn Biel into a lady!
Ideal! Modest and gorgeous!

Yay. If you can't be a bit daring when you are rich and hot, when can you? Go Jessica :)

I think she looks great! I like the hairstyle, but I'm not sure I like the blunt bangs on her. It might grow on me.
