Jennifer Aniston in beige Valentino in Mexico City: lovely or oatmeal-y?

aniston1

I’m sorry we only have this one image of Jennifer Aniston in Mexico yesterday, but I did try to crop our one photo a few different ways, so HUZZAH. She was promoting her eponymous perfume (“Aniston by Jennifer Aniston”) at the St. Regis Hotel in Mexico City. The dress is Valentino, and while I normally don’t care for everything being the same beige-y color (hair, skin, dress, shoes), something about the tones Aniston picked out really work. She doesn’t look washed out, she looks tan, blonder and healthy. However, the print ad for the perfume still cracks me up: Aniston looking “Butlered” – like she’s just been nailed by some nameless dude and then left at the beach with no clothes. Why would you pick this image for your perfume?!?

While she hawked her perfume, Aniston also did some press for some of the other stuff she has going on:

Looking bronzed and beautiful, Jennifer Aniston is displaying her signature fragrance at a photocall in Mexico City.

Aniston spoke a little to the press, noting that she has some non-rom-com movie projects in her future, including The Goree Girls, based on the true story of an all-female country-western band that formed at a Texas prison in the 1940s. Aniston says the band was “sort of the Dixie Chicks of their time.”

She also mentioned another project, tentatively called Counterclockwise, that will focus on the studies of Ellen Langer, a renowned Harvard psychology professor.

[From USA Today]

She’s been talking about that Goree Girls movie for, like, six years. I wonder why it never happens? I’m not asking that as cut on her, either. It seems like Aniston would be able to get that thing financed, and at one point, Gerard Butler was totally attached to do the film with Aniston. Why hasn’t it happened?

In other Aniston news, In Touch Weekly has a sympathetic Team Aniston piece about how she’s selling her Beverly Hills home because she wants to move to New York. That was reported weeks ago, so whatever. But they have new quotes! According to Aniston’s friends, “Jen wants to shake up her life… she has vowed that 2011 will be the year she makes all the changes she can, to give herself the best chance at happiness… she wants to live somewhere less fake. And she wants to settle down with someone normal. She’s looking for peace of mind.” Eh.

UPDATE: Okay, we got some additional photos. Question: is the top of Valentino dress diaphanous? I think I’m seeing Aniston nipple in one of these photos.

    Eh. Too foo-foo.

  2. brin says:

    Well at least she’s not in black again….she looks beautiful!
    I agree about “Goree Girls”…she hasn’t spoken about it for a while so I thought it wasn’t happening.

  3. The_Porscha says:

    She looks pretty radiant in these pics, good for her.

    I wish a Goree girls movie would get made. I don’t know how I feel about Aniston in it – I don’t think she would do it well, personally – but this film has been stalled multiple times and I love the story. Bummer.

  4. jemshoes says:

    This dress is absolutely stunning! Beautiful! And very complimentary to JA and her style.

  5. annaloo. says:

    Normally I don’t pay much attention to Aniston but she does look pretty fab here.

  6. EllenP.Moran says:

    Big Changes, blah, blah, blah. Set In Her Ways, same old, same old…..what year is it?

  7. sauvage says:

    Lovely!

  8. Kaye1 says:

    She looks really pretty here. Love the dress.

  9. Sherri says:

    she looks radiant! – lovely!!

  10. truthSF says:

    Is it just me…or is that perfume bottle shaped like a tooth?

    This girl already has an unfortunate face, and bugging her eyes out does not help at all.

  11. Roma says:

    Love the dress but obsessed with the shoes. I don’t think those are from Valentino’s spring/summer line so she went with another designer… but I want.

  12. Jezi says:

    Beautiful, she looks great. However, I prefer her hair darker when it’s short like that. If she had kept it long and blond then it would’ve looked better. I don’t like the blond blunt look.

  13. Addie says:

    Her hair is great and makes her seem more mature than before which is a good thing.

    Hey, we all need to get older sometime.
    Baby steps for Jen, but steps non the less.

    Oh and the dress is lovely and oatmealy all at the same time…real nice

  14. Anne says:

    Her Goree Girls film has not been able to secure any financing for all the years she has been talking about it. I really don’t understand why she doesn’t put some of her own money into this project and produce this film through her own production company. But so far none of her announced production company projects have been made. So many films are now indies and she could go that route if she really wants to make this film. That is what many actors are doing these days. Maybe she is just too much risk adverse to do so.

    The dress is a nice soft color. I don’t like the print ad at all, don’t think it is very effective. Wonder why she is selling in Mexico before having an event in the US in CA or NYC at like Macy’s. Or has she, I don’t keep up with her.

  15. Vanessa says:

    She is such a beautiful woman and seems like a really lovely, sweet person. Love her! She does look radiant in those pictures.

  16. spinner says:

    She looks gorgeous. Love the dress & shoes. She looks like she gained a bit of weight & she is wearing it well.

  17. Praise St. Angie! says:

    not my taste but she’s working it. she definitely looks quite gorgeous here, but I think I’d still like her hair better if she went a bit darker.

  18. Cel says:

    The dress is fab, but the 3 colours hair is awful.

  19. Hakura says:

    Even *I* think this looks great on her, even with the khaki-neutral coloring… The sparkles help. I was trying to figure out what was ‘striped’ on her legs xD I assume it’s a light’s reflection…

    Gosh, she has long toes..

  20. Miss Beca says:

    She looks nice, but everything she does just bores me to tears. Anything that was interesting about this woman ended 10 years ago.

  21. Gwen says:

    I think she looks good 🙂

  22. mln76 says:

    On Goree Girls she’s been talking about that movie for 3 or 4 years now. I think if it does happen it may have to be on television. I personally do think it’d be a risk for the studios and alot of people including bigger names have had problems with financing in this economy. Jen hasn’t been in a successful drama since The Good Girl(which was a low budget independent movie) and she’s never been able to finance a movie just by signing on (there aren’t many in Hollywood who can do that).

  23. Ruby Red Lips says:

    I really don’t get the love for JA, I think people loved her character Rachel in Friends and believe that JA is this person…she’s so obv not.

    She looks boring, bland and overrated!

  24. lucy2 says:

    Love the dress, saw several photos of it and it looked pretty.

  25. bagladey says:

    This is a very different look for JA and she looks great. Love the dress and shoes.

  26. tracking says:

    Ah, she gets it right. Lovely, sexy, and feminine without being too frilly.

  27. Quest says:

    I like the dress on her…she looks great… didn’t know she had those long toes though.

  28. Isa says:

    I love the dress, even if it is biege. I would totally wear it.

    My first thought was that she has gained some weight, in the picture of her giving the crazy eyes. Do you think she did it to disguise fillers? Or is her face just fuller b/c she gained weight.

    Which came first the chicken or the egg? haha.

    I really have a hard time believing she would let herself gain weight for no reason. I feel like she would up her exercise and restrict her calories at the first sight of the scale creeping up.

  29. anonymous says:

    Jennifer Aniston’s face looks bloated as hell. Beautiful? Paid fans as usual. I wouldn’t be surprsed if she isn’t the next star to have a public melt down,her obsession with doing everything and anything for attention is not normal,she is becoming strange.

  30. margaret says:

    who knows how people really are, but she seems nice to me. I think she’s pretty and I love the face she is making at the young dude getting an autograph.

  31. silken_floss says:

    She’s fabulous and always will be to me

  32. Leah says:

    she’s really beautiful

  33. Roxanne75 says:

    She;s so pretty. I could only hope to look that good in my forties.

  34. bros says:

    ugly bridesmaid looking dress, too young for her.

  35. serena says:

    I could see it too. LOL.

  36. someone says:

    Love the dress, she looks beautiful, I have always thought she was gorgeous…

  37. flotus says:

    She looks absolutely gorgeous! The dress and shoes are fabulous, and her skin is perfection. Love the hair, Jen. Keep doing what you are doing!

    Paid? No one is giving me a red cent, “Anonymous”!

  38. MeriJaan says:

    She looks amazing. First time I’ve ever said that…

  39. Jezi says:

    @anonymous WTF??? What a weird comment.

  40. original kate says:

    i like the hair cut but i would love to see her go a few shades darker and maybe wear some wine colored lipstick. she’s always so caramel.

  41. tori says:

    I think she looks gorgeous, confident and age appropriate. And, I’m not a fan of her performances. Let’s give credit where it is due!

  42. Turquoise Blue says:

    This is maybe the best I’ve ever seen her look (and I think she always looks pretty good)! Her hair is fresh looking and her skin is really glowing. Sure, she’s not the most adventurous person fashion-wise, tends to stick to the black and beige, but she consistently looks great on the red carpet – you never see her have a huge faux pas like certain celebs.

    I noticed the nipple thing too. Jen seems to go braless a lot of the time. Lainey has some amusing commentary on how she uses the nipples for attention.

  43. Sapphire says:

    She has gorgeous skin and makes the dress look beautiful.

  44. anonymous says:

    Bloated face! This weeks Ok magazine shows her face with so many changes it ain’t funny. Her insatiable appitite for attention is sickening. All the georgeous comments and compliments only proves my point, that is exactly what JA craves. she finds all kind of ways and means to get it. JA at 42+ is a modern-day, Baby Jane, like the character in the movie with Joan Crawford and Betty Davis in the end Baby Jane went mad.

  45. keepitreal says:

    She looks like she smells really bad. I don’t see what other people see, beautiful???? She’s weird looking.

  46. Catherine says:

    She looks fabulous. Her skin, her hair, her body is in great shape. What’s not to like about a lovely woman? The beige suits her.

  47. Nanea says:

    Kaiser, I also see nipples.

    While I don’t mind the color, I usually don’t like Valentino as a designer.

  48. someone says:

    anonymous..keepitreal???? I think the two of you should make an appointment to your local eye doctor, you cannot possibly think she is that ugly, or smelly looking???? wierd looking??? tell me why please… hilarious!!!

  49. Lucky Charm says:

    The length of the dress is age-appropriate for once. There, I said my nice thing so now I’ll be quiet…

  50. malina says:

    A NIPPLE! That always adds some flavour ;)!

  51. guesty says:

    Not exactly a nip slip…but sorta. Hate her hair this length & the dress is oatmeal-y.

  52. Megan says:

    God I HATE HER

  53. Cheyenne says:

    It’s oatmealy but it’s pretty. Nice to see her finally dressing her age.

  54. DiannSteph says:

    Quote: “However, the print ad for the perfume still cracks me up: Aniston looking “Butlered” – like she’s just been nailed by some nameless dude and then left at the beach with no clothes. ”

    LMAO!!

    I love her shoes and the length of her new hair cut. I like that she can move her forehead, unlike Kidman and others.

  55. Cheyenne says:

    @DiannSteph: That is really the most unfortunately evocative advertisement I’ve ever come across: “Look at me! I’m all alone, washed up and on the rocks!” And the poor thing looks so forlorn. What in the world were the promo guys thinking of?

  56. AudreyFarber says:

    BORING…….. snore……..

  57. olivia says:

    she totally looks pregnant

  58. Fire says:

    I think she looks great. LOVE the term “Butlered” Kaiser. You are totally obsessed with that guy!

  59. Granger says:

    I think she looks beautiful, and I’ve never been a fan.

    Can anyone really imagine Aniston as an incarcerated country singer? She just isn’t a good enough actress to pull that off. So I’m not surprised Goree Girls hasn’t found financing yet.

  60. Granger says:

    And I just HAVE to cattily add that it’s no wonder she looks awesome… She doesn’t have kids (and therefore never suffers from chronically interrupted sleep!), she never has to clean her own house, she basically works part-time for huge sums of money, and she has millions in the bank. Sigh. If only life was that easy for all of us!

  61. Jayna says:

    Beautiful. I’ve always loved her simple sense of style. She knows herself and stays true to that in all of her looks.

  62. Lisa Turtle says:

    I want to ban all of Hollywood from these nude glittery dresses. NO MORE. The trend has been worn to death.

  63. Newbie says:

    I hope it gets financed. I think she’s capable of doing something good/different if she’d just TRY. Even after all the rom-coms, I’m still hoping for something good for her.

  64. HRH says:

    I think she looks amazing.

  65. Chicoulina says:

    She aged 10 years with this new haircut.I prefer her with the old golden locks.Not crazy about the dress.Her face is glowing though..

  66. Vesper says:

    Am I the only one who thinks Jen looks awful in every way?

    It isn’t just her face that looks puffy, she looks bigger everywhere, especially her arms. Even her skin looks different, not long ago she had a nice radiance. Also, despise her hair. She needs some wave and lots of low lights to take away from the harshness of her face, some layers would help too. As for the dress, I like it, but not on her. She definitely needs some lipstick or eye makeup to give her some colour.

  67. snoots says:

    @ olivia

    I was thinking the same thing. And if that happened she would become the Patron Saint of Single Mothers & she would be on every tabloid cover for years.

  68. Ruffian9 says:

    Actually, I think it’s gorgeous. And I usually find her really dull.

  69. Solveig says:

    She looks great and I would kill for a dress like that.
    Her next step is going to Jamaica to create and promote a brand of joint called “Anistoned”.

  70. Moreaces says:

    I dont like her for many reasons,, but she looks great in these pics

  71. John Wayne Lives says:

    Oh wow look at JenA looking predictable.
    And I agree that she’s looking a bit.. what is it?….bloated, rough, maybe something in the face? She usually looks good, (you know with nothing to do all day, everyday except focus on me, myself, and I) but something is diff. Maybe its all the drinking.
    She’s always struck me as the kind of person who pretends to like life more than she actually does.
    But I think the whole look is pretty.

  72. Isa says:

    I want to know how she can worship the sun like she does and not have any sun spots all over her chest? How does she manage to not look like a piece of leather?

  73. Crash2GO2 says:

    @Isa, I was wondering the same damn thing actually. I’ve tried Retin-A on my chest a time or two – I think if I stuck with it, the spots would fade. Maybe she just has a really awesome skin care regimen. You know – one that requires oodles of time and endless cash.

  74. ordinarygirl86 says:

    I like this dress on her. She’s covered and dressed age appropriate which is something she sometimes doesn’t do. She’s not crotch flashing us, showing too much cleavage. She looks very elegant actually

  75. Smiley says:

    She looks a bit meaty in these pics and hair is way too blond but the dress is nice.

  76. KatScorp says:

    Huzzah?! *snicker* TBBT fan in da hizzy 🙂

  77. Vanessa says:

    @Olivia. That was my first thought. I think she is going to surprise us 😉 She is very body conscious and I doubt she would let herself gain weight if not for a good reason…

  78. Andie says:

    She looks great..if I look like that at 42 I will be very pleased. She has put a little weight on..look at the way the dress is cut. Maybe she is trying to hide a little bump.

  79. Susan says:

    Meh.

    I like the top of the dress, but it’s kind of bridesmaidy. This dress would be better as a full length gown.

    I think the cut of the top the dress with a pair of perfectly tailored slacks would look better. And the color is too close to her skin tone. She looks washed out in sort of spray tan way.

  80. gypsy says:

    @megan: same here

    @anonymous: i couldn’t agree more, and who the hell wears a see through dress with NO BRA to greet a bunch of kids???u can clearly see everything she has in the “E” pics. isn’t she a little old to be going braless?? oh, that’s right, she has said that she has great nipples…she used to go braless on “friends” in t-shirts

    @vesper: no, i see it too!

  81. Rachael says:

    She looks great. We can all hope to look like that at 41. Jesus.

    and I have the fragrance. It’s amazing. She has great taste. I get compliments when I wear it.

  82. Rachael says:

    and btw, it’s sexy to get nailed on the beach and left with no clothes. I hope that happens soon.

  83. Isa says:

    Retin A! I need some of that for my spots on my face from acne.
    Gonna have to wait until the baby comes though.
    I wish she would talk about her skin care in an interview, now that would be interesting!

  84. Shaz says:

    beautiful – d@mn if she’s not looking better every year – I love the new hairdo/color

  85. Jammin says:

    Keepitreal, I get that impression too. Maybe its her personality to me that makes me think it. Shes a real manipulative bitch.

    Isa, its called tanning beds.

    Rachael, I’m sure she gets nailed on the beach, since nailing men is all she does. Shes a doorknob.

    As for pregnancy, stop being nuts you guys. She’d rather die than have a child. The day Aniston lets herself get pregnant, is the day George Bush becomes a member of Al Quaeda.

  86. gypsy says:

    im gonna post this again, it got eaten the first time around…www.fadedyouthblog.com/123670/jennifer-aniston-the-puma

    “america’s sweetheart” little miss innocent aniston…GQ Magazine, totally nude with two men

  88. Cheyenne says:

    olivia: she totally looks pregnant
    =======================================
    LOL really? Any ideas on who the father is?
    She doesn’t look pregnant, she looks bloated. Most likely PMS’ing.

    Rachael: it’s sexy to get nailed on the beach and left with no clothes. I hope that happens soon.
    ========================================

    Sounds like you’ve been having way too many wet dreams.

  89. Cheyenne says:

    Now gypsy, she was not totally naked… she was wearing a necktie. 😆

  90. DiMi says:

    I don’t even like this lady – both she and AJ, whom I used to like, annoy me – but even I acknowledge that JA always looks fantastic. Let’s not pretend that she doesn’t. She does, and her body is killer.

  91. julie says:

    she is pretty but it’s an ordinary kind of prettiness…too many like her around…

  92. Crash2GO2 says:

    @Jammin: You get sunspots from tanning beds too.

  93. Cheyenne says:

    @Crash: You get melanoma from tanning beds too. Those things are lethal. Worse than spending a day in the sun.

  94. gypsy says:

    @Cheyenne: oh yeah, the necktie, and how strategically placed! lol

    @ordinarygirl86: she’s nipple flashing us, the whole top of the dress is diaphanous…just saying

  95. Stephanie says:

    I think she totally nails it: makeup, hair, dress, shoes. Beautiful!!!

  96. julia says:

    So nice !

  97. Magsy says:

    I’ve never seen her roots before. Don’t like the new color/do.
