'12
Call me crazy, but I don’t have a total hate-on for this look. What can I say? It’s August, it’s an event in Las Vegas, and if you’re ever going to wear a crop top, booty shorts, reptile heels and a Birkin, it might as well be in Las Vegas in the middle of August. Do I wish Jennifer would stop with the crop tops and the whole “Look at my abs!” thing? Sure. But she’s still going to do it, shade or no shade. As for the booty shorts… I’m sure we’ll debate this. The debate will be “Are these really booty shorts, or are they short shorts and you’re dumb for calling them booty shorts?” My verdict is still “Booty shorts, especially considering J.Lo’s booty.” Once again, there’s a time and a place. Studio 54 in 1978? Sure. Wear booty shorts. Las Vegas in August 2012? Sure, wear booty shorts. I really think J.Lo might be wearing me down. Also: I really love her crystal drop-earrings. This isn’t the best outfit overall, but I give her props for a great execution on a weird outfit.
I also had a moment (a wonderful moment) when I thought Casper wasn’t on this red carpet (it’s a carpet for Jennifer’s “World Tour celebration” and she made a “special appearance” at the Wet Republic Pool Party at the MGM Grand). But that moment passed when I saw that Casper also got photographed at the event, just not WITH Jennifer. She walked the carpet alone, and he was off doing his own thing. So… they’re still together, despite all of the rumors and speculation to the contrary. Just this week, OK! Mag claimed that Jennifer’s family had done a “Casper intervention” and convinced her to “take some space” away from Casper.
Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart are about to go through a cooling-down period following an intervention by Jennifer’s family, an insider tells OK!.
Says the insider: “Jen’s family is very protective of her, and they’re really concerned that she’s moving way too fast with Casper. It’s not that they have anything against Casper personally, but they’re concerned about the age gap [J.Lo is 43; Casper is 25], and are worried that Jen maybe getting in over her head.
“They just focused on the fact that Jennifer has a long history of moving too quickly when it comes to her relationships — which she can’t deny.”
Although Jennifer has been aware of her family’s concersn, she was shocked when her mom, a sister and others sat her down to have a talk.”
“It wasn’t an attack on Jennifer or even Casper — it was more like her family stepping in and trying to talk sense into her,” says the insider.
“They know her history. She always goes from one serious relationship to the next, and they really want her to take her time with Casper.”
At first, says the insider, Jennifer was upset and defended her relationship with Casper tooth and nail. But she eventually admitted that she has a history of moving too quickly, and agreed to put a little space between Casper and herself.
Wishful thinking. While I think we’ll have a better idea of where J.Lo and Casper are as a couple after her tour, my guess is still that Casper is going to be around for a while longer. I do think Jennifer is wondering why he hasn’t proposed to her yet. I mean, they’ll have been together a year come November. It’s past time! J.Lo must always be in a state of engagement, marriage or divorce. There is no “dating” or “keeping things casual and low-key.”
Also – I don’t mind tattoos on a dude (or a lady), but there’s something about Casper’s ink that grosses me out. It’s not even that it looks low-quality – some of tattoos actually look kind of expensive and well-done. But the overall effect is just kind of gross… to me.

Agree about the shoes. I thought for sure she would be wearing wedges… surprised at the shoe choice.
Ok, you asked for it! Imma call you crazy for not having a hate-on for this look.

Ive seen pictures but its hard to say if they are actually of him. Hes wearing a hat and sunglases so its hard to tell. Apparently he is having fun before he gets deployed next month.
As for JLo, she need to learn that she is a 43 year old mother of two. Once you get past your thirties, going to these kinds of things is a sign of desperation.

Super cute but the birkin and the shoes don’t go… She should be wearing flats with that outfit!! But permanently get rid of that gawdy accessory she has following her everywhere!!

Cute outfit, needs different shoes. Like the bag, ditch the dude. The outfit might look cuter on someone not so booty endowed. Definitely not booty shorts.

I despise all tatoos and I especially despise them on women.
Meanwhile, she looks, as usual, stupid.

Jennifer looks totally lovely. Who cares about the age she is. People get too hung up and need to mind their own business on age appropriate clothing…Granny left the building in her old clothes a long time ago. It’s the 21st century. People can wear what they want at whatever age.
I don’t believe the nonsense about a family intervention. Jennifer is a grown woman. She can date whoever she wants.

Casper will propose to Jlo when he’s instructed to do so. Until then, “sit boy, sit”.

Yes, it is a “cute” outfit. The question is does JLo want to look cute? Apparently.

It looks like a outfit for a 5 year old little girl and the shoes are hideous! and Caspers still a douche! lol!

I live in Vegas. Its hot. This look is dated and dumb. The heat does not give her an excuse. And when you think about clothes that she could get and then look at this!?! Is it a leftover flyGirls costume??
one or the other was always a good rule anyway. Never short shorts and short top together. Oh Jlo you have a cute shape – please dress a little better.

Anyone else notice how sun-damaged the skin is on her thighs? It’s especially prevalent in the 3rd photo from the top. Maybe she needs to start using more Hawaiian Tropic on her legs (its on the backdrop behind her… couldn’t resist) =P her arms seem fine…

Cheap, tacky and vulgar.
And don’t even get me started on Caspar – he looks like the kind of dude you see hanging around shopping malls on a Saturday night trying to score weed.
J.Lo, we get it, you’re hot for a 43 year-old mother but for the love of God, get over the “Chola” look!

She reeks off desperation.Not that she doesn’t good look for her age but it’s time to grow up and act your age.Stop trying to keep up with her boy toy.
He’s the poster boy for douche bag.He makes the guys form the jersey shore look humble.I can tell there’s already trouble in paradise.I see him jumping ship as soon as the tour is over and he stops getting $$$

Yes jaded cheap tacky vulgar there really is nothing fashionable or stylish about this overrated lipsyncher; And don’t get me started on the disposable drivel that is her “music.” She is totally wrapped up in her world, and Casper looks like a character from WHere Is Waldo. No matter, i’m sitting here drinking coffee listening to Esperanza Spalding no that is a cool lady and a great musician – everything JHO lacks.
Good point hanna – where are her kids? I guess there are just nice props when you have a product to shill.
BTW, compare the first three pics of JHO to her appearance in those Loreal tv ads – wow, the magic of makeup and photography.

I just don’t get why gorgeous adult women try to dress like little girls. That is the opposite of exuding confidence.

Uh-oh, Casper looks pissed that he wasn’t allowed to swagger on with Jennifer, so he can pretend like everyone is excited to see HIM.

3 inches here would have greatly improved this outfit. 1 inch on the top and 2 on the shorts. A pair of solid but brightly colored shorts and a different pair of sunglasses and she would have looked soooo much better. Him…not so much. It’s like he tried too hard but still is off the mark…

I’ll give her a pass because it’s a pool party. She’s really creeping up on cougar, though. The Birkin looks ridiculous, though.

Good Lord, I could never date a man who dressed like that. I would be mortified to be seen in public with him. Maybe when I was 20 and too young to know better, but in my 40′s? Hell no!

Looks like something I’d dress my daughter in…when she was a TODDLER.
And her family wasn’t “concerned” six months ago, when she threw everything into fifth gear with The Mooch?

She is too old, and too rich for that outfit. While she looks good(being rich having very good surgeons do that), it is a look for a 20 something woman. Not a 45 yr old with lots of money.
And the pretend boy toy is just absurd.

She could have been his mother..pregnant at 16. The money these stars spend to keep looking younger would feed a whole starving nation. I just hope that she doesn’t have a meltdown like Demi Moore did when her young man leaves her for something a little more younger.

Casper will never leave voluntarily until he’s got another SugarMama or Daddy in sight (longshot) or until he’s stashed enough $$$ to buy a young & dumb toy for himself.
I agree with earlier posts that if JLo wanted to be engaged, it’d happen instantly. “She Who Must Be Obeyed.”
The neck tat is the worst. The rest can hide under most clothing except wife-beater T-shirts.

She is too old for this look, crop top and booty shorts. She is over 40. Yes she has a great figure. But. It Screams I am Desperate! There are ways to be SEXY when you are over 35 but it does not equate to dressing like you are in your teens/20′s and you can’t deal with your age. Let it GO, JLO.

1. It’s hideous regardless how old she is
2. she looks like the thinner version of me… using the tan to hide the cellulite but with the back a lot less tan than the front.
full disclosure – I totally did that last June…. the tan front/semi tan back *blush*

Sorry, I’ve never liked her big legs and butt, so in shorts, this is even more emphasized. She also has more cellulite now, so should stay away from shorty looks because her thighs are so large at the top….not my fave person anyway, so I’m happy not to see her at all in the posts, but could not help but comment here.
