Still, I like that she is taking risks. She played it very, very safe on the red carpet for a long time. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-911147 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:11:27 +0000 RoseandJoan 911147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I am so sorry for the ridiculously late reply to this thread.<br /><br />I'm happy to see that others felt the outfit slightly missed the mark. My initial reaction was that the bottom half needed more length to balance the top. I couldn't help feeling she had forgotten her pants. Slightly longer shorts would have looked much better to my eye.<br /><br />But as others have mentioned the fit of the top seems off also, perhaps this was an off the peg no time for alterations affair?<br /><br />With regards to the age appropriate question, I do think a slightly (couple of inches) longer short and better fit of the top would have made the outfit more appropriate for her age, figure and standing.<br /><br />Anyhow, I think Jennifer looks as fresh as a daisy in a way which my see through blue skin envies and I do love that she has taken a risk with her style choices. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910477 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 20:54:05 +0000 annagybe 910477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ We're not the only ones talking about it <a href="http://jezebel.com/check-out-jennifer-anistons-swishy-pony-and-formal-sho-474831362" rel="nofollow">http://jezebel.com/check-out-j.....-474831362</a> For the record I like formal shorts. But yeah something is lacking here. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910475 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 20:51:35 +0000 Diana 910475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think of Jen Aniston as having a younger, girl-next-door, more casual style anyway so in theory she could pull the formal shorts things off.&nbsp; Unfortunately as others have mentioned, the fit is just not working.&nbsp; <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910390 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 18:35:11 +0000 rachylou 910390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Is that really the same outfit? I can't imagine Dior letting Jennifer Aniston leave their premises looking like that. The top doesn't fit! Why has the bodice developed wings? What is with that Home Econ 101 hem? And the baby diaper-pants shorts?<br /><br />No no no. <br /><br />I think the shorts are OK for California. We don't do formal. They *are* dressy shorts. Which I understand is an oxymoron, dressy shorts.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910356 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 17:55:31 +0000 DonnaF 910356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The shorts give off a bike shorts vibe to me and are too short for the height of her heels.&nbsp; They seem to make her highs look heavier than the probably are. &nbsp;If they were fingertip length and wider at the hem, I think it might look quite a bit better.&nbsp; With that top I would prefer a skirt.&nbsp; Finally, black is not a good color on Aniston.&nbsp; <br /><br />I think shorts could work for a formal outfit as long as they are at least fingertip length which would also be *my* minimum length *rule* for skirts/dresses.&nbsp; Shorter than that is not elegant to my eye and would be more appropriate for a casual or sporty outfit.<br /><br />As to age appropriateness?&nbsp; I think it depends on the legs.&nbsp; I would not like to see this look on elephant thighs!&nbsp; This particular look, however, just looks *off* to my eye and would look off on anyone IMHO.&nbsp; <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910242 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 16:08:52 +0000 ironkurtin 910242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I agree this is not Jennifer's most flattering look, but I don't think it's the shorts.<br /><br />As for age-appropriate, if you have great legs, go for it.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910207 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 15:51:43 +0000 Dana 910207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see this outfit totally working for someone like Rhianna. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910203 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 15:47:27 +0000 Dana 910203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jennifer Anniston IMO gives off an air of arrogance by not pitting more effort into her look for events like this one. I don't have that big of a problem with the top. (I really think its the camera angle doing her injustice.) But the short drag the look down. It might be a cute look with a tuxedo jacket and more interesting shoes. And if you're going to wear shorts to a red carpet event, I think a dressier hairstyle is called for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910199 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 15:43:13 +0000 jenanded 910199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Since we have spoken of age appropriate over the last few weeks on YLF forum, while I think she is a lovely pretty woman, she screams of the need for validation to me (all those magazine covers maybe bias me) but then to wear shorts that don't look that great on her to a formal event just reinforces that to me. She is a beautiful woman, show that confidence please! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910168 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 14:47:26 +0000 Anonymous 910168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The lines of this outfit are very severe and don't seem to work with Jennifer's soft curves. IMO it would look much better on a rectangle or IT body type. In all fairness, the photo seems to have been taken at a downward angle, which is seldom flattering on anyone.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910123 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 13:44:30 +0000 siniestra 910123@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ sorry no help here...i always believed sometimes ...she is so laid back and casual that dress with 0 polished and not very age apropiate ...she stuck with the girl next door vibe .. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910117 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 13:34:58 +0000 annaj 910117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jen can do so much better! Black is NOT her colour, and although I have no objections to this as a red carpet outfit, it doesn't work for her. Pass! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910102 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 13:17:16 +0000 Janet 910102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't care for it. The proportions seem odd, for one. I'm not keen on most strapless looks, and this one is no exception. I think the shorts look awkward with this top, and the top is unflattering, IMO. It looks like someone cut the top and sleeves off of a jacket and left some half-lapels there. </p> <p>She is lovely as always, and her legs give me envy. I do think the shorts are not the culprit here, it's the top. If it were a beautiful white silk blouse or something similar on top, she'd look 1000x better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910098 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 13:14:41 +0000 Vildy 910098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ She doesn't usually look chunky to me but here she does. And it gives off the vibe of a romper.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910094 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 13:09:40 +0000 lyn67 910094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <b></b>Totally wrong. But for me it's not the shorts per se. I think Jen's&nbsp; shorts here are almost like some short leggings,&nbsp;or even like some underwear(boyleg knickers), so it's more about not balacing out the top's weight (and level of&nbsp;formality) or so. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910077 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 12:40:07 +0000 Deborah 910077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't find this flattering at all:(. The proportions are a little strange but not in a good way. I have seen some very cool and edgy outfits with silk shorts and "harem" shorts and I think they can work for a formal occasion and are age appropriate, but I really think Jen missed the mark here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910071 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 12:38:26 +0000 Tanya 910071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hmm, I really like the idea of the outfit, &nbsp;and the shorts do not bother me at all. &nbsp;However I&nbsp;believe&nbsp;that something is quite wrong with the fit of her top. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910068 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 12:36:55 +0000 Jaime 910068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Frankly she looks like she is in the early stages of pregnancy to me. I don't think the outfit is inappropriate for her on the red carpet, but I would not suggest most women of any age try it at home. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910056 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 12:27:04 +0000 Mia 910056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yikes, I do not think that is her best look </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910051 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 12:17:41 +0000 Agnes 910051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I normally really like JA's out fits and look. Love her casual california balzer and jeans vibe,&nbsp;but this out looks very odd. It makes her look very pear shaped which she isn't. &nbsp;I think she generally looks great in shorts, and I don't find them age inappropriate its just that the proportions are too odd. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/analyse-this-look--jennifer-aniston#post-910039 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 11:40:13 +0000 RoseandJoan 910039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I happened upon this outfit of Jennifer Aniston this morning. She is attending the premier of Call me Crazy which is a series of short films focussing on mental illness.<br /><br />Jennifer looks the picture of radiance and good health but I would love your opinions on the outift by Christian Dior;<br />Do you think shorts work in a formal outfit?<br />How do you find the proportions?<br />Is the look age appropriate?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=jennifer+aniston+call+me+crazy+premiere&amp;rlz=1T4ADFA_enGB379GB379&amp;source=lnms&amp;tbm=isch&amp;sa=X&amp;ei=doduUdzkG6iO0AXU2YHIAg&amp;ved=0CAoQ_AUoAQ&amp;biw=1280&amp;bih=582#imgrc=_" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.co.uk/search.....79&#038;so</a><br /><br />I have my opionions but do not wish to skew the discussion so will chime back later.<br /><br />Therefore over to you and TIA<br />
