Why must girls go and ruin a perfectly pretty outfit with leggings? Case in point: Jessica Alba at the Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer photocall in Madrid. Let's start from the top and work our way down shall we?
Her hair looks romantic; her face is flawless; arms are toned; color block mini dress is unique...and then all of a sudden, HALT! Leggings?
I would have ditched the leggings and let my stems breathe. Although her platforms are very Ashley Olsen, they don't quite go with the ensemble. Instead, I would have worn a pair of feminine peep-toe Mary Janes.
How would YOU Wear it?

I don't mind the leggings, but I do think the shoes could be something else. But, I'm not hating the overall look here.
1I'd rock that dress with some brown reefs or rainbows for day - I love that mix between classy/high-end and comfy. For night, I'd do a pretty brown peep-toe kitten heel, or a peep-toe low-heeled mule. BTW that BARELY looks like Jessica Alba!
2The dress and leggings are okay, but not with those shoes.
3The shoes are too heavy for it. Their too high fashion for such a casual look.
4those shoes are sex kitten and make me wanna tackle her rawr. but umm...yeah i don't care about this look. snooze!

5I like it just fine. The leggings are a younger look, so its a nice change because it always seems that she is trying to look older and sophisticated. And I think it helps balance out the chunky shoes where as if she didn't have the leggings on the shoes would look completely wrong for the outfit. Not saying I like the shoes, but the leggings just help them fit with the dress better.
6THE LEGGINGS AND THE SHOES RUINED THE CUTE DRESS!!
7Her shoes ruined everything.
8The shoes are terrible, it's too chunky. It does nothing for the legs. Thin straps, or strapless shoe would have looked better. I wouldn't wear the dress period, brown is not my color!
9Nah, i would not wear it.
10leggings and shoes killed the look. By day I would maybe keep the leggins and wear some flipflops, but by night all she needed was a decent pair of heels. Those shoes just ruin the outfit.
11I don't think the leggings are of the right color....maybe something on the brown tones--that complement one color on the top. The shoes has to go too
12I'm done with leggings.
13the leggings definitely kill it, although they're not as bad as the shoes. simply black heels minus leggings would have looked great, too much kills it...but i still love her. really like the dress.
14I am not a big fan of the leggings under the dress. I've only seen a couple of times when an adult (celeb or otherwise) has worn that combo and looked good. Otherwise, I think it's a look best left to those under 13 years of age. I love this dress and the shoes - just not together. I do like that she didn't do accessory overload with such a busy dress and shoes.
15i wold take the legginfgs and shoes off- they distract from the dress. Then i would put on two or three stacks of clear braclets and wear gold heels.( like mary janes)
16Some really cute brown shoes, maybe peep toes like Sophia Bush's at the Mandy Moore release party. But yeah... no leggings and no gladiator shoes.
17I don't like leggings that much, and only sometimes they work with outfits. And that's not the case here, they don't look so great.
18I like leggings for casual, daytime looks. For me, the problem with this outfit is the dress. I don't like it. And I agree that the shoes are wrong.
19I understood,that I don't like leggins))) But I just love those shose by Versace!! I wanna them!

20i like the leggings ... i'm wearing them right now!
21i dont like the shoes what so ever
22I love the look but not the colours, i would have kept the dress the same but the leggings brown and changed the shoes to brown peep toes like Sugarls sweeter 01 suggested
23there is a catch in wearing mini dress. You will end up always thinking are you showing your underpants or something else... tights help to make the dress less provocative and to make you feel that you can move and sit any way you want, without showing your intimate parts...
24I like the leggings but I'll opt for a neutral peep-toe wedge and add on some gold bangles...
25im kinda over leggings but I like the outfit as is. Id just add some bangles
26Without the leggings,and with some simple brown or black Louboutins!!
27Leggins are okay..would be better without them though. Shoes are hideous!
28the shoes are a little too much. how do celebs wear shoes like that all the time without their feet looking hideous and deformed?
29The shoes ruined it!!!
30I have NEVER and WILL NEVER wear leggings. Period. There is no excuse to wear them, ABSOLUTELY NONE. They look terribly with almost everything and turn most women into sausages. They're hideous, IMHO.
Then again, I don't like Ms. Alba either. I'm all about being really happy to be from whatever culture you're from and Jessica has had a lot of statements where she not only denies having a latin heritage, but where she says that she HATES being considered a latina actress.
Yuck, inside and out!

31I think it works EXCEPT for the leggings. I like the shoes with this dress.
32wtf was she thinking?? the whole outfit looks horrid!!
33Lose the leggings (a trend that I just can't get with) and the shoes. Add some flat gladiator gold/bronze sandals or a nice peep toe pump in a bronze color and some nice bracelets.
34when leggings first came back into style, i hate them. now that i've gotten used to them - i love them!
however, i think most of the time they make an outfit look more youthful, so they work here for me.
35PS: if i was a celeb, i would wear leggings under everything - simply to steer clear of the pap's obsession with crotch shots (unless i had an adorable hubby like Becks covering me up!!!)
36I saw this on Pop and thought oh that would be perfect for a Fab 'How Would You Wear It?'!
37I'd keep the leggings, add a t-shirt and a pair of sneaks and go to the gym.
38I don't like those shoes.
39why does she seem she's always trying to look "cool" these days... she should just stick to her elegant styles, she looks more put together that way
i i had this dress, i would just loose the tights and maybe add some
accessories with the same style as the shoes so it ties the outfir together...
40I actually really like this outfit just the way it is.
41The shoes don't do it for me.
42I'd toss the leggings, lose the platform shoes, and slip on some peep-toe Christian Louboutins.
43Everything is ok minus the shoes.
44What's wrong with the leggings? Let's just ditch the shoes for those YSL platform peep-toe Mary Janes. Same idea but less S&M. I think she looks fabulous otherwise.
45although leggings are the epitome of trendiness, trends are indeed a definate part of jess's style. i think yes, she could have ditched them, but she still looks fabulous just the same
46with/without leggings its a beautiful outfit.
