Eva Mendes in a breezy, oversized shirtdress in LA: cute or unflattering?

I was so surprised that so many people wanted to talk about Eva Mendes and her beautiful, giant puppy earlier this week. I wrote that post thinking no one would care. So… you probably won’t care about this one, right? Too bad! I like talking about Eva Mendes. She stepped out again yesterday for a spot of shopping. She was seen all around West Hollywood, running errands and going into a vintage clothing store. Fortunately, she did not bring her unleashed, giant dog with her.

We can debate whether or not Eva Mendes actually likes to be pap’d on a nearly daily basis, or whether the paparazzi just find her and follow her around all day – I suspect it’s both. She enjoys it, she enjoys her newfound “celebrity” as Ryan Gosling’s girlfriend, and she puts on little fashion shows on a daily basis, encouraging us to talk about her. I think she also gets followed by the paparazzi against her will too.

So, what of her fashion? Eva Mendes tends to dress “pregnant” right? I’ve made the mistake of doing Bump Watch on her before, but it’s not entirely my fault – she likes loose-fitting, phantom-bump-creating clothes. This dress is another Classic Mendes – the kind of dress only a woman with a superior figure (like Eva) could even come close to pulling off. She doesn’t look pregnant from the profile… but I’m not completely ruling out an “unplanned pregnancy” in the future. Even if Ryan Gosling believes in marriage before babies.

    Really nice leggs

    • Happy21 says:

      She has great legs! She bothers me so much I don’t ever bother to look at her photos but today I did and yes, super-nice legs!

      • Ranunculus says:

        I don’t get it, her legs are a bit stumpy, her neck is too short, which make her look bulky, and her facial expression is like of some crazy chick who will go nuts on you. (Are her and Taylor Swift related?) She looks like she recently had some fillers on her lips – maybe for TIFF. I like the dress though and I do commend her on making bold colour choices.

  2. Ari says:

    I really hate when toes hang over sandals. Just get a pair that fit?

  3. Astrid says:

    Not a fan of her style.

  4. Me says:

    Dress is wayyy better than those shoes…icky.

  5. paola says:

    She really has the worst taste in shoes. In every picture she has the most horrible shoes she can pick out of an expensive bunch.

  6. Turtle Dove says:

    the clothes she wears don’t seem to suit her as a person. It’s like she’s always wearing a costume.

    I get the def. feeling that she’s trying to be an easy, breezy, pixie type like Michelle (Rachel?), who is more Ryan’s type, but she’s failing because the clothes don’t suit her.

  7. kaligula says:

    The cut is fine, kind of nice, but not fantastic. The pattern however is very wack. I agree with @paola about the shoes. What a missed opportunity. Some cool shoes could have saved this getup. In spite of all this however, she still looks ravishingly gorgeous….

  8. stinky says:

    why do we keep having to see her here all the time? just because of her BOYFRIEND??

  9. Bailey says:

    I’m sorry…my eyes just keep gravitating towards those God-awful shoes.

  10. littlestar says:

    I don’t know what it is, but every time I see pictures of her I think she is very harsh looking. That harshness makes her less beautiful to me. And I agree with everyone else, awful shoes that don’t even fit her!

    • Izzy says:

      ^THIS. I can’t ever think of her as looking good because her constant, constipated mega-b!tch-face just ruins even the effect of a great outfit on her. Honestly, WHY is she so miserable all the time?

  11. lori says:

    I think she needs to try a more structured look. i don’t care for the moo`moo’s she seems to like to wear. But maybe that’s weather? Is it really hot right now in LA? I get how it doesn’t take much for her to over-sex an outfit, but I think she’s going too far the other direction.

  12. Lindsey says:

    Actually really love this whole outfit…except the shoes.

  13. k says:

    I like the pattern but not the cut of the dress.

  14. RHONYC says:

    i’m completely obsessed with blue dresses this summer, so…cute.

    plus, i. need. those. shades. 😉

  15. Mimi says:

    Love the bag and that is it. Oh, I mean, I love her purse and that is it. 😉

  16. jess says:

    Im just glad she’s in shoes other than those gold slip on sandals. I detest them!

  17. Angie says:

    Love her dress! She is gorg, I don’t understand the hate!

  18. INeedANap says:

    Maybe she just likes looser clothing. If I was an actress and was semi-contractually obligated to appear in films, premieres, and promotional events in tight fitting clothing over three layers of Spanx, you bet your heinie I would be wearing easy-breezy clothing on my off hours!

  19. vanessa says:

    Her clothes do not suit her. They distract from how pretty she is. Too many prints!

  20. kennedy says:

    She has the worst shoe collection of any B minus/C list celebrity I have ever seen. Even Ashley Greene, the ultimate C-lister, has managed to up her shoe game.

  21. anya says:

    I can’t hate on Eva- she’s so pretty!

    • anna says:

      I bet she’s played that card her whole life. Every time she does something bad, it’s ok because she’s pretty? It’s ok she abuses her dog, because she’s so pretty? Sorry but that isn’t right. She’s supposedly not a very nice person. Looks are not everything.

    • yolo says:

      she doesn’t want to be called pretty or sexy…she wants to be “cute”…lol..

  22. ladybert62 says:

    Awful dress – awful hair – awful shoes.

  23. taxi says:

    Looks like beach clothing to me which is pretty common around town in WestHol & LA in the summer. Agree the shoes are bad. With flat sandals & no big clunky necklace it would be fine.

  24. andrea says:

    ewwww, the hair!! and her madonna- arms….

  25. yolo says:

    *sigh* I guess I should applaud her for not following the typical HW fashion trends buuuuut, I can’t. I hate her style and even more shocking is that she actually claims she has a stylist. Those grandma shoes have GOT to go. At least get the right damn size so your big toed foot is begging for mercy as it hangs off the edge. And we all know what she can do with those fugggglyyy glasses she can’t seem to live without.. I just can’t get on board with her.

  26. Ranunculus says:

    She was filmed today backing her car in full traffic in LA. Looked very scary. She is truly whacked out of her mind.
