Jessica Alba has a subtle yet gorgeous style. She enjoys glamorous looks on the red carpet and less pretentious street clothes in her everyday life. Try these tips to get Jessica Alba's style.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Workout routine
  • Velour tracksuit
  • Hat
  • Sunglasses
  • Boot cut jeans
  • Slouchy or structured purse
  • Hoop earrings
  • Natural makeup
  • Dark lipstick
  • Form-fitting dress
  • Makeup
  1. Step 1

    Focus on your body. Jessica works out regularly and eats healthily to keep her body firm.

  2. Step 2

    Collect some activewear items for an everyday look. Jessica Alba is often seen running around town in velour tracksuits, such as the ones made by Juicy Couture. She also wears trucker hats or pageboy caps to protect her head from too much sun and sunglasses to avoid eye contact with paparazzi.

  3. Step 3

    Get jeans to flatter your frame. Jessica tends to wear boot cut jeans with a dark wash or with slight wear on the thighs. She has often been spotted in True Religion Sammy jeans on the street and dark vintage True Religion Joey jeans on and off the red carpet.

  4. Step 4

    Know the power of accessories. Jessica Alba is always seen on the street with a medium-sized slouchy bag like the Botkier Stirrup bag. Sometimes she will trade her bag for something more structured like a Yves Saint Laurent Muse bag. All of her bags are in neutral colors like brown and blue, which go with everything and show off her lovely tan.

  5. Step 5

    Buy a dress that's either floor length or just below the knee if you want to mimic Jessica. She tends to wear dresses that highlight her chest while keeping everything tucked away. She chooses longer dresses that cascade behind her, while keeping her shorter dresses closer to her shape.

Tips & Warnings
  • Keep your hair and accessories simple if you want to mimic Jessica Alba. She tends to keep her hair straight and add blond highlights. Whether she is on or off the red carpet, Jessica never overloads herself with jewelry, giving her clothes center stage. If you do want to accessorize, get simple hoops or one sparkly bangle.
  • Add makeup to your new look to make it more authentic. Jessica usually wears a little base makeup to cover any imperfections, and minimal makeup on her eyes and lips. However, she usually chooses a darker lip color for the red carpet.
  • Don't try to imitate every part of Jessica's look. She chooses clothes that flatter her curvy body, and they may not all work for you if you have a different body type. Use her choices as a guide to make your style that much better.
