Angelina Jolie wears a jewel tone in Berlin, and the angels wept

angelina_jolie_salt_04_wenn2965199

I’ve been mean and harsh about Angelina’s style throughout her entire world-wide Salt promotion. In my defense, her clothing has been particularly crappy. In Angelina’s defense, I’m sure she has other priorities, and she looks like she’s actually putting some (but not a lot of) effort into her style. In the past few days, she’s worn two God-awful dresses back-to-back – the glittery, neutral-toned potato sack (tied with ribbon) in London, and then the ill-fitting glittery white cocktail dress last night in Paris. Today it’s Berlin, and we’re finally getting a jewel tone!

Her dress seems to be a very pretty navy-purple (it’s changing colors in different light, whatever). Somewhere between an amethyst and a sapphire. Bless her heart. My complaint, because I’m such a bitch even though I love her? I think Demi Moore wore this dress months ago. That’s not the worst move Angelina could be making, honestly. She and Demi have similar coloring, and in theory, Demi’s style would work well on Angelina. So… applause? Eh. Even though the color is awesome, I still think Angelina doesn’t look all that hot here. Maybe it’s jet-lag?

By the way, in case you want more Angelina dirt – the National Enquirer is running a story about her mental problems (“Angelina’s Psycho Trauma”) and Star Magazine’s cover story this week is all about Angelina is “bored with Brad” because “he’s no fun in bed anymore.” Damn, Angie! Sometimes a girl just has to get out the handcuffs herself.

    Nice color, but it’s still ugly as fuck.

  2. Moreaces says:

    She looks very nice, the color looks good on her,,At any rate, I loved Salt.

  3. Heaven-bound says:

    Agree with Huzzah

    It fits better, and the color is nice, but it looks like a budget dress. Fug dress.

  4. denise says:

    Better. But still not her best. I don’t like that hair on her and the makeup is too plain.

  5. kelbear says:

    Ugh she used to have nice sexy hair.

  6. mila says:

    The dress is so so but it’s not a problem Old school Angie looked good in almost everything because of her sexy, confident attitude. Nowadays, she seems…shy?unsure?lacking in self confidence? I don’t know but I got the feeling that she’s not comfortable on the red carpet, not in a way she used to be.Also, the hairstyle doesn’t help.

  7. Claudia says:

    Beautiful.

  8. K-MAC says:

    she needs to go back to the glittery sack….

  9. LOVE ANGELINA says:

    Simply F*cking stunning. Awwwww she looks absolutely darling. I think jewel tones are the way to go for Angie. Its a cute simple dress for the press conference. I really really like it.

  10. aenflex says:

    Much, much better!

  11. sharylmj says:

    I really like the color.. the dress fits nice, but it’s kind of boring.. and she looks totally bored. She must be ready to go home.. It would get really old after awhile to answer the same questions over and over.. that must be one of the down sides to being a movie star.

  12. Katalina76 says:

    She just seems to be dressing very matronly lately. We get it, you’re a mom. That doesn’t mean you have to dress like a Grandma!

  13. EllenP says:

    Seems like she’s gained a few pounds–good for her! I think she looks great.

  14. Jen D says:

    I’m pretty sure she’s wearing my bridesmaid dress I wore to my best friend’s wedding a few years back. I don’t care, though – she’s wearing colour!!!!!

  15. Julie says:

    Not that I believe the article, but if it were to be true. Let me just say this, Brad has far more hot left than she does. Almost hands down, no matter who it is when these woman start messing with their faces to the extent she has, it always seems to look worse in the end…..maybe not right away, but in the end IMHO. If they did a little tweak, say the nose, and left their face alone, it would be fine, but it’s the cheeks, the botox, the lifts, the ears, etc. And way too skinny….it ages her and doesn’t do anything for her looks. Anyway, if she tires with Brad, I think he could do far better now. He was attracted to the hot, but her hot is gone.

  16. Cheyenne says:

    Nothing is inevitable but death and taxes and another bullshit Angelina story in the tabloids every Wednesday.

  17. mfisher33 says:

    How big are her feet – does anyone know? they always look very large, but her legs are so thin – perhaps that is why they look so big…

  18. denise says:

    Is it just me, or have they both sucked the hot out of each other?

  19. Ellen Smith says:

    The hair is a mess, and she needs accessories.

  20. Cruisin Through says:

    She looks the best here that she has in all of them. The dress fits her, unlike the others.

  21. Cheyenne says:

    @denise: Very likely. Off the top of my head, I can’t think of anybody who is still hot after six kids. Actually, I don’t know anyone who still cares about being hot after six kids.

  22. Eileen says:

    Love that color on her but I wish she’d put her hair up and wear dressier shoes. This looks sorta PTA-ish IMO but you can’t deny she’s still gorgeous!

  23. danielle says:

    She needs to eat a damn hamburger and take a nap! She’s been looking rough.

  24. lucy2 says:

    I like the color, a nice change for her. The dress itself is OK, seems a bit casual compared to the others she’s worn in other cities, but at least it fits better and is more flattering.

  25. AnnaSwen says:

    I’m sure all the skinny actresses in the world would be much better off if only they ate all those damn hamburgers and sandwiches the snarky special people on the internet offered them.

  26. LOVE ANGELINA says:

    Brad and Angelina’s priorities are different now. They have 6 kids to raise. They can only care so much about the superficial BS like looking good for so long. If they started doing things to improve their looks you all will bitch and moan they are taking botox or got something done. Angelina and Brad look fu*king normal. Well Brad does, Angelina is the most stunning woman I have ever seen and haven’t encountered another woman like her. I hear Angie is 10x more beautiful person and I believe that. Anywho I think to many people have to many unrealistic expectations of people who, yes are people who are very successful and rich, but still human.

  27. guesty says:

    every dress has been awful & her hair (which is usually gorgeous) has been fug as well.

  28. coup de grazia says:

    i was getting ready to say that’s a MUTED jewel tone, doesnt count!, but it was just the pic, it is actually a proper cobalt blue as you can tell in the last pic. and it’s shapely too!

    now, we just need to work on hiding those nude pumps from her when she’s not looking! 🙂

    and yeah, she could use some extra pounds, but i suspect it’s just that she’s a naturally very thin woman who occasionally chases after 6 kids.

  29. Ron says:

    This dress is very ordinary. Looks like something you could pick up at Ross. Nice color though. She needs a new stylist, they are phoning it in.

  30. Praise St. Angie! says:

    now THAT’S a color she should wear.

    but I agree, the dress itself is kind of fug. the ruffle ruins it. I know ruffles and flaps (the glittery sack dress) like that make you look larger than you are…”larger” women are advised to avoid ruffles and such.

    so maybe she’s wearing dresses with flaps, ruffles and undefined waistlines to avoid the “she’s so skinny!” comments?…

    definitely like her hair better down, but she does look tired. not surprising.

  31. Cath says:

    I think I’ve seen this dress before…in Ann Taylor…in 2002.

  32. denise says:

    Anywho I think to many people have to many unrealistic expectations of people.

    @Love Ang
    And you don’t have these ‘expectations’ of Angie?

  33. gretchen says:

    i know people like angelina in regard to her carelessness in dressing. they truly do not care what they put on to a certain extent, they are uber confident with themselves and like her wear old favorites ALL the time. it does not change how people they are in contact with view them at all because there is way more to them than their wardrobe…i’m not a super ‘huge’ angelina fan (though i liked her in Gia, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, the changeling and a mighty heart very much, so this comes from just an observer.

  34. kim says:

    Star magazine is funny Didn’t they just say a couple of weeks ago that Brad told AJ he didn’t love her anymore.

  35. di butler says:

    I see she took the internets up on their advice and called personal sylist Suri Cruise……Yay?

  36. K.at says:

    @ Denise: hahahaha-that is exactly what I was thinking!

    What is going on with her hair? It looks like she needs a good wash-it just looks dirty and unkempt. And while I acknowledge that Angelina is gorgeous, her body has absolutely no definition-she’s hot from the neck up-from the neck down, she always looks like she is just going to fall over without a moment’s notice

  37. snowball says:

    I’m wading in and letting it rip. This is technical, not personal (and I do mean it, this is strictly related to this particular outfit):

    Her hair is sincerely fried. The color is awful, without the added fullness of the extensions she had during the filming of “The Tourist,” the bangs are lifeless and, well, ’80s. She needs to go darker and cover up the fried yellow bits.

    The pale lipstick is bad, bad. It looks like my tube of Chapstick. I know it’s neutral, but she could use a nice lip stain. She looks so exhausted, her skin is almost waxen and the lips are making it worse. They’re the facial equivalent of those damnable beige pumps.

    Her cheeks look weird, but maybe it’s the lack of color in them and that they look sweaty. And the hair around them.

    It wouldn’t kill the woman to put on a bracelet or watch or something either once in a while, would it? I know she’s not big into jewelry, but she always looks like she could use..something.

  38. Kitten says:

    She’s insanely gorgeous to me. The face! BUT I agree the haircolor and bangs aren’t the best on her. I’ve seen the supposed “pre-surgery ” pictures and in my opinion, I don’t think she’s had work done.

  39. KatHug says:

    I like how Angie usually looks so gorgeous with very little make-up on, but homegirl needs to throw on some powder!! She just looks too shiny!

  40. Disco says:

    She does look tired…and the ruffle is not a good idea. SHE MUST BE PREGNANT!!

    I’m actually just kidding, but you know there will be all new baby stories in 3,2,1…

  41. Kiska says:

    She doesn’t look healthy to me. She needs to back off a bit and go take a holiday, eat, sleep, and play with her kids.

  42. ashleighlauren says:

    So pretty. Admittedly, I’m a little biased as the top half of the dress looks remarkably like the shirt I’m wearing right now.

    Not going to lie, still not loving the nude pumps. I know, Oprah said to wear them. It’s just…Angelina Jolie is gorgeous. She can be daring with her shoe choices. Or, wear a metallic. It’s practically a neutral. Just step away from the beige.

  43. Fluffy Kitten Tail says:

    Her shoes are fugly, that is for sure.

  44. Catherine says:

    Very nice color on her. She looks lovely.

  45. Javagirl1 says:

    I hate to defend this woman, but I don’t get how some people act like she’s a pile of skin and bones. She does not look unhealthy to me. Yeah she’s slim but she’s certainly no Tori Spelling! It must be hard for celebrities to always be neither too fat or too thin to avoid speculation. Weight can fluctuate in a lot of people!

  46. GatsbyGal says:

    I like that she looks plainer than usual. She’s not on the red carpet, she doesn’t have to be super fancy. Sometimes a woman just wants to be comfortable.

  47. Oi says:

    love the headline, Kaiser. Tell us how you really feel, lol.

  48. Toe says:

    Jen and John are On Again. How he won her back!! What??? when did this happen?

  49. Majosha says:

    “I hear Angie is 10x more beautiful person and I believe that.”

    @Love Angelina: For the sake of AJ’s personal safety, I hope she never crosses paths with you in person. You’d be shoving people aside and knocking over strollers to get to that woman … and then the REAL terror would start. She’d need therapy to get over that kind of trauma.

  50. Really says:

    Nude peep toes once again? Agree with coup de grazia, hide them when she isn’t looking.

  51. pity party patrol says:

    1. She gave birth only twice
    2. She has loads of money
    3. She has loads of help
    4. She has loads of free time (she makes one movie per year)
    5. She supposedly is with man of her dreams

    Yet she looks like crap and unhappy…

  52. Sans says:

    Jen and John never happened. It’s Star magazine.
    Anyway she looks pretty and like she’s going to brunch. If you don’t see that she has hips you’re blind. If you didn’t see her toned thighs in that black slit dress and Vanity Fair, you’re blind. I love her hair. Her arms seem to be getting bigger too.

  53. Bubbles says:

    In her defense, she doesn’t have extra time to pick out a perfect dress for each event in every city. She’s got 6 kids to drag around the world. Though the dresses aren’t as nice as we’d all expect, at least she’s trying other colors besides vampy black.

    I must admit I do like the subtle beige shoes, mostly because they don’t attract much attention from her dewey face. Did she get a facial from Madam Tussauds?

  54. autotron says:

    THANK YOU PPP, its amazing how everyone loses sight of these facts and acts like she is some normal woman with six kids in a small house with a partner who doesnt have loads of free time himself…yes, THAT would wear a person out (and normal people do it all the time without saintly praise or hired help)…Also she doesnt HAVE to drag those kids every where she goes. A lot of people are SUPER busy and have many kids, HELLLOOOOOO, give yourself some credit already and stop putting her on such a pedestal, it makes you look like you dont love yourself!!!!

  55. kim says:

    3 premieres in 3 days in 3 cities,dozens of interviews being asked the same questions. I think it was great that the BBC guy asked about the catastrophe occuring in Pakistan.Brad and Angie visited there after earthquake and donated money to refugees and she donated money to flood relief fund through UNHCR. Salt has made $187 million worlwide in a little over 3 weeks and is opening in Europe this week. The Tourist with JD opens in Dec.Way to go Angie.Although I don’t like black dress at Berlin premiere(smile)

  56. skibunny says:

    Majosha: that was damn funny!!!

    As for this latest look…..other than the color,this dress does nothing for her.

  57. Jeri says:

    Lately she’s been wearing dresses with weird material flaps like she wants to camouflage her body. A simple style with no flaps would be nice on her. The color is good for her & it’s better than always black.

  58. original kate says:

    no like the shiny face.

  59. Cinderella says:

    Love that color on her. Love any color on her. I agree she should go back to a darker hair color. Her skin looks nice. She’s probably operating on no sleep, yet she looks damn good, I think.

  60. OC lady says:

    @AnnaSwen: That was really funny!

    She looks tired and like she could care less. I do wish she would do the vamp thing again, but she seems to be going for the maternal look lately. Oh well . . . as long as she’s not wearing mom jeans.

  61. sparkledog says:

    Um, I’d give my left arm to look like that…are you kidding??

  62. Camille says:

    Gorgeous from head to toe. I love the colour and I think its a nice dress. Nothing to complain about here unless you are overly nitpicky and just want to throw some more hate out there.

  63. Holly says:

    She looks much better here than she has the entire promotional trip. Bravo for wearing some color! And this dress doesn’t make her look so emaciated. I agree with some people that the fabric looks like a cheap knit, but I still think the cut and color look much better on her.

  64. Kimi says:

    Stunning

  65. margo says:

    She is so sexy, yet so not feminine, it is such a weird combo to me

  66. albeli says:

    Not awesome, but one of the most flattering things she’s worn lately. At least it’s not a sack.

  67. Pia says:

    Can a bitch get some blush, please? She’s ridiculously colorless.

  68. Stephy2485 says:

    Color is gorgeous although I would have liked for it to be brighter (more jewel less tone, haha)

    That hair though…it has GOT to change!

  69. DD says:

    hate the dress and the look. And quite frankly that star headline should read that I’m bored with Angie… but I’m not a celebrity. She used to be so exciting to watch. Okay I understand she’s a mother… hmmm… but she was still hot/interesting when she was a mother to just Maddox… damn you Brad.

  70. poolhouse says:

    She looks nothing like a “moviestar”. It would be so easy for her if she hired a better stylist.

  71. sally says:

    Why is she curling her bangs like it’s 1992?

  72. Tricia- says:

    100% preggers. Count it bitches.

  73. sandy says:

    this lady can not look bad, someone said she looks like crap? are you blind? are we looking at the same picture? she has good days and bad days, but never crap, her worst days are better than our best days.

  74. Sara says:

    I think she could do way better. Demi Moore is a lot older but she choses younger clothes. Angie always goes for old and boring. I mean black pants and pencil skirts are what we always see her wearing in candids. I wish she’d wear jeans or something more interesting than trench coats in different shades of neutral.

  75. JY says:

    don’t like the hair but she looks really beautiful

  76. shorty40 says:

    Huzzah: LMAO!!! I agree, not only the dress, but just HER in general. Ugh.

  77. Sakyiwaah says:

    her face is really ethereal-looking in the jewel tone dress. Plus, the Star mag cover has such a lovely Brangelina shot. now i see why people get mad! they’re both really gorgeous in it.

  78. Mistral says:

    She’s so pretty here. Love her hair and her eye and lip makeup.
