Reese Witherspoon in all-black, with her ring: classic or just boring?

fp_6574979_api_witherspoonrudd_germany_11_22

These are photos of Reese Witherspoon and Paul Rudd in Berlin yesterday. They were promoting How Do You Know?, that film that bombed stateside. Gotta sell, sell, sell in Europe. And since Reese is putting on her strained happy face (seriously, that smile looks painful in some of these photos), Reese also decided to openly flash her new engagement ring from her fiancé Jim Toth. Jim has great taste in jewelry. Look at how beautiful this ring is:

Simple. Elegant. Big, but not gaudy. Classic setting, solitary diamond. Not only is this just a really gorgeous and classic ring, but it also suits Reese’s style and personality. Sigh… Jim wins. Reese wins too. By the way, her dress is Giambattista Valli. I’m surprised it’s an actual designer outfit – it looks so simple. I figured it was from, like, Banana Republic. Reese seems like she would shop at Banana Republic, doesn’t she?

    Yeah, no airs for Reese. She looks great and I love the ring! Bet she will be preggers soon, too.

  2. Ally says:

    Not when your costar shows up in a wool v-neck and quasi-cords. She looks positively swanky next to the Rudd.

  3. Anne de Vries says:

    I’ve never thought her smiles looked genuine, she has this kind of ‘cheeeese!’ expression for the cameras. They do look extra strained here. On that fourth photo it’s more like just showing her teeth..

  4. trillian says:

    I just don’t get this thing for those oversized rocks on engagement rings. It looks like it was bought in a toy store as an accessory for a princess costume.

  5. lin234 says:

    I like her outfit: simple and well cut. Yea, I could see her as a BR gal.

    I think it says a lot more than she can be wearing all black without showing cleavage or bare legs to promote a movie. She’s Reese Witherspoon. She doesn’t need to TRY unlike starlets.

  6. Vee says:

    She looks beautiful. The dress is simple and classic, the ring is as well.

  7. bagladey says:

    I like Reese but this outfit is boring as hell.

  8. LindyLou says:

    I think the dress is boring. Love that ring!

  9. carrie says:

    classic but if her legs were nude,it would be better

  10. Eleonor says:

    That ring is beautiful!

  11. emine says:

    i want a ring like that

  12. serena says:

    She really seems tired as hell.

  13. Leticia says:

    The dress is not flattering to her figure. But she does look classic and appropriate.

  14. Zombie Nurse says:

    That is a rock and a half. Damn.

  15. Isabel says:

    Adorable, love love love.

  16. Sumodo1 says:

    The wedding band to go beneath it, eventually, must be quite wide, judging by the thin shank on the engagement ring. If this looks nice, it will probably look unbelievable with the wedding band. The jeweler is probably the one with the good taste, not Toth.

  17. gloaming says:

    Stunning. Love the necklace too.

  18. P.J. says:

    The ring looks slightly too big and should be sized to fit properly on her finger. Pretty design, but such a big and clunky stone doesn’t seem practical for everyday wear, especially for a mother of young children. Guess she’ll have to reserve it for the red carpet and nights out.

  19. leuce7 says:

    What on earth does she do to get her hair so shiny and silky? It’s practically glowing.

  20. escapee says:

    It looks like a safe, easy and fairly comfortable outfit to throw on and look presentable in when you are dog tired from travelling. I agree, her smile looks forced, but she did show up, looked appropriate and performed.

  21. Stephie says:

    Paul Rudd’s smile looks more strained than hers. She looks great. Beautiful ring too.

  22. Oi says:

    Didn’t realize Paul was a shrimp.
    Great ring too.

  23. Arianna says:

    oh my god i love paul rudd ahhhh!
    reese is gonna have some major laugh lines as she gets older! that smile is strained.
    but i still love her and that ring is gorgeous
    I think maybe i would like the dress better without the black tights. I never like black dresses with black, opaque tights.

  24. sam says:

    Absolutely classic and classy.

  25. REALIST says:

    Classic, but boring. It’s Berlin, why not mix things up a little?
    The ring is nice-no surprises there.

  26. kristin says:

    Love her. The outfit is not exciting, but pretty, and she probably wanted to showcase the ring. That said, she looks lovely.

  27. dholmas says:

    The ring is beautiful but not practical for everyday because of the setting. I agree with others who have posted about the black stockings. Nude would have been nicer.

  28. the original bellaluna says:

    I like her. I’ve heard she’s anal (read: professional when it comes to her work) but I still like her.
    Her ring is NOT obnoxious, doesn’t blind, and works for her. Sounds like her fiance knows her well. No J-Lo here!

  29. Rachael says:

    My dream ring. Stunning.

  30. marge says:

    her forehead doesn’t move much, uh?

    lovely ring, but the dress is boring… adn those sleeves are OK for 10 yo, not grown woman… I find tehm really fugly

  31. Genevieve says:

    She looks genuinely happy, and the ring is very classy! Preggers by the end of the year for sure. Maybe twins?…

  32. Genevieve says:

    On the fashion side of things, she’s wearing tights because it’s WINTER. There was probably snow outside, hence the covered legs and booties. Practical, but not her best fashion moment by any means…

  33. Katie says:

    She’s so boring. Pretty girl though

  34. TeeTee says:

    I love it, its totally Reese.

  35. Camille says:

    Love her, love her dress, love her ring. She looks great.

  36. lucy2 says:

    Nice ring. Dress isn’t very exciting, but her style seems to be more classic and subtle. I prefer that to trashy any day!
    I like both her and Paul a lot, but had no interest in seeing their movie, which really, really bombed.

  37. not a reese fan says:

    I don’t dislike her, but I’m not a huge fan either. She seems like a normal, common-sense kind of girl.

    Having said that, I actually really liked the movie. I’d recommend it to my friends. I think it just suffered from bad box office timing.

    In the movie, she plays an athlete who gets a bit of bad news. Paul Rudd plays a down on his luck guy too. I think the movie was about how to change yourself as a person when life throws you a curve ball.

    I’d totally pay to watch it again (rare words from me!)

  38. Hakura says:

    Eh. Her outfit fits her very well, but it was incredibly boring with it all being black. Almost like it was intentional to showcase the huge rock on her hand.
