Lovely colour and shoes! She looks great

Too similar to things she's worn before.

Loving her face in these shots. Great makeup/ hair/ lighting whatever it is

Yes, finally she wears something that is vibrant and showcases her youth... not that i think it's necessary to wear tiny dresses and show your skin but i've felt like Carey's choices lately have been sort of weighing her down a bit.....all interesting choices but a lot of them seem very heavy and subdued... it's really nice to see her with that little belt around her waist and the lively colour.. she looks gorgeous !

She looks cute there. I'd prefer if they chose one of her looking at the camera though.

She is a beautiful girl but she does this funny facial expression, this kind of nervous smirk, that makes her look quite unhappy and disinterested most of the time....she looks so pretty on the cover but i wish they'd chosen another take where she had a bit more energy in her face....she looks a bit depressed and unsure to me..

Ha, they put her in a J. Mendel dress. You can kind of tell by looking at these pictures that it's not her style.

 

[sethii]

Well that's who she is I guess...not a blonde clone like the one next to her. Someone who is an actress rather than ~a star~

 

[IAmLordZen]

I found her editorial for February Vogue really unflattering. She looked older for her age there. But she's someone oozing with talent so it sort of evens it out.

 

[StarsInHerEyes]

I like her hair and makeup at the Directors Guild Awards, but her dress looks like its waaaay too big for her, as all of her Red Carpet looks lately do.

She looks like such a sweetheart in VF. Definitely buying this issue.

The Trouble Girls
Lone Scherfig with Carey Mulligan

One film together: An Education (2009).

Jenny is 16, going on 17. But unlike Liesl, the milquetoast maiden in The Sound of Music, Jenny is one of those wry, dauntingly eloquent sixth-form English girls who seem to have emerged from the womb jaded by life. It’s this projected worldliness, as much as Jenny’s gamine prettiness, that attracts the attention of David (Peter Sarsgaard), an older suitor of sketchy background and considerable charm. Mulligan, 21 at the time of An Education’s filming, gets Jenny just right: one minute she’s a seen-it-all old pro who issues a cutting appraisal of her teacher; the next she’s a moony naïf who’s surrendered her senses to romance. Scherfig, the movie’s Danish director, has come a long way from the austere Dogme 95 principles of her breakthrough film, Italian for Beginners (2000). It’s Britain just before the Beatles, and she positively nails it: the bright, costumey colors of David’s louche café world and the pale, flecked wallpaper that imprisons Jenny’s dowdy parents.

I think the problem is she looks like a little girl but she is a woman. So she is dressing in older fashioned styles (that could be her taste, I don't know) to look her age, rather than dressing in a more youthful way which could prove a risk of her looking too young and childish.

Her complexion/makeup at the latest event are just That colour looks good on her, but at first I thought they were more pics of her in the Lanvin dress.

She reminds me of Audrey Hepburn in the VF pic with her looking to the side.

Carey has been nominated for an oscar!!

 

[dajrekshn]

yep! congrats!

 

[lakomka]

Wonderful for her to be nominated

 

[sethii]

OMG So happy for her! Let's hope for something bright and lovely on the big night

 

[LolaSvelt]

Congratulations. Carey or Gabourey should win, not Meryl or Sandra.

Love her outfit in the last picture. Do you think that was her own outfit? I'm sure she's worn those trousers in candids!
