PRINCESS ALBA’S COMEBACK

Posted Aug 21 2008 @ 06:55 PM

A spectacularly dressed Jessica Alba made a stunning entrance on the red carpet of the 2008 ALMA Awards, officially unveiling her post-pregnancy body. In a sweeping pink satin dress by Narciso Rodriguez (staying true to the Latin American theme of the night), I have to say she’s absolutely glowing, wouldn’t you agree? To achieve the pink princess look, try CoutureCandy’s more affordable versions like Betsey Johnson’s Tiered Dress in Blush or Ziji’s Queen of Hearts Dress in Gold and Pink. To complement such a dynamic dress, keep the accessories simple just like Jess did, starting with shimmering teardrop earrings (like Kuo Ting’s Frosted Teardrop Earrings in Sterling Silver) and a set of silver bangles (like Amrita Singh’s 11 Piece Bangle Set in Silver). Though the wind wasn’t very kind to her up-do, Jess laughed her way through the mass of photogs and made her way onstage to present an award later in the evening. Since becoming a mommy, Jess has increased her political involvement, appearing in a YouTube vid for Obama and making bold statements about her beliefs to the press. This fall, Alba will take it one step further, appearing in PSA ads with the tagline “Only you can silence yourself,” featuring the actress crying with her mouth stitched shut. A little grotesque, but the message is clear: get out and vote, people!
