Jessica Alba opted to wear a strapless ocean blue dress by Jason Wu to the Met festivities. The jewel-encrusted top looks good enough to eat, and so do the hot pink clutch and emerald earrings. However, what's up with the black tights? Do tell . . .

no no no.
1The tights and dress fail for me, but the clutch? Love. The earrings? ADORE.
2wow these posts are coming in fast! there's a lot of bright colors going on here ... not crazy about the matchy lipstick and clutch, or the black tights. or the braid.
3Why does she have to wear tights with everything now?!
4Ack, you're right, Fab -- the tights kill it.
5I dont like it. She is usually so pretty.
6ugh, those tights! Also not a fan of the green earrings with the rest of the ensemble
7I love almost anything in blues and greens--I wish she didn't wear the black tights to drown out the summery sea colors.
8the tights and shoes kill it or else there would be some serious potential.
9Hate the tights. She should have run to the nearest bathroom and throw them away.
10Ever since she's entered mommyhood, she's seemed to totally go for a mom look. tights...with that dress? COME ONNN! not a fan of the shoes either. hair's kinda typical but not a focus point in her look. sigh, alba a-la pre-baby was prime.
11I think she looks great... tights and all. I don't think she normally wants to reveal too much skin, so she wears tights or leggings..
12BORING! It simply looks common. Girls wear that dress to night clubs that exact same way.... well maybe not the exact dress
This is the Costume Gala, and i wish she would have been more innovative.
13Wtf is she wearing???
14Not even my girl-crush on J. Alb can make me like this.
15the tights make the look too casual
16I like that she's not trying TOO hard.. I read somewhere that she hates her legs.. have you ever seen her wear short dress with out tights?
17Hate. For a movie premiere? Love it. However for such a stunning event in fashion? WAY too simple.
18Eww, Jessia Alba! You are at a gala, not some bar.
19nop hate it - BORING but love the earrings
20the dress is not what i thought she'd wear....
21& off with the tights!!!
I love that dress!
22The pic on the left made me think of Frida Kahlo...
23And as everyone else has said, that would look infinitely better without those stupid tights. But I love all the bright colors!
I think she was trying to be different with the tights, and personally, i think she achieved it.
24Please, have more respect for the event and wear something really suitable for the occasion, not a short dress. Anyway, voted no because I cant stand her anyway
25Yeah this looks like she's going to a friend's cocktail party...
26Bahaha! Ew. Nice lipstick lol!?
27ujum!? for some reason i think I've already seeing this!!!
28by the way i didnt like it!
29Those shoes and tights are horrible with the dress. She lost her mind wearing all that.
30The tights ruin it! She wears them with everything since she was pregnant! Maybe she got cellulite on her legs, and she's trying to hide it. LOL.
But I do like the dress. Not with the clutch or earings. And those shoes are not anything special.
31I hate Jason Wu. She looks hideous.
32Umm is she going to the Jr Prom or the costume institute gala? I get she tried to be diffrent by going shorter, but this isn't working it looks like she picked this up at edressme.com and the tights at target and had some great hair and makeup done :|
33i love it!
34Exactly what I was thinking, bastylefilegirl. Very Homecoming Queen.
35WTF??
36She's ALWAYS wearing black tights. Bleh. Earrings are gorg though.
37i agree, the dress is beautiful, and the earrings are fabulous. but the tights have GOT to go...
38A+ for the dress.
D- for effort.
It's the frigging Met Gala!
39It is a little high school prom-ish, but I love that she didn't match her earrings to the dress.
40I like the blue dress with the tights but the green earrings eww! but i love the clutch!
41It's all pretty...wrong.
42Boo! I hate everything
43Makeup yes the dress no!
44the style of the dress just doesn't do her justice - i'm not the biggest fan of this look.
45I'd love it minus the tights...they completely ruin the look.
46This dress is so cute, her hair & makeup look great. But WHY the tights ?!
47Does she know where she is? If you go to the Met's Costume Institute Gala, you show up to impress however risky it may be. She literally did nothing. That's how you dress to a cellphone launch.
48Too boring for the event! I mean for this kind of gala you have to tear it up! The tights also mess it up period.
49Hmmmm..blue dress, raspberry lip color, and green earrings..a little too much for me. I like the opaque tights with it however.
