Jessica Alba Pants, Jacket Are Exploding With Color: Chic Or Shriek? (PHOTOS, POLL)

After bumming us out with a disappointingly neutral (albeit lovely) dress at the Golden Globes, Jessica Alba decided to kick her color palette up a notch on Tuesday.

The star stepped out in New York City wearing multicolored floral pants, an orange top, a jade ombre jacket and a pair of matching jade sandals with white cuffs around the ankles.

Oh, and a large black leather bag. But who could notice with the wild garden party going on?

It's definitely a bold choice, but we're generally inclined to forgive Jess the occasional sartorial misstep, given how flawless her off-duty style usually is. (When she's getting styled by magazines, well, that's a whole other story.)

Check out Jessica's ensemble below -- how do you feel about the springy look?

Jessica's red carpet Globes dress did not bum me out, and this outfit is fun. Why not? She can pull it off and she clearly enjoys clothing.

By the time this story made the pages. Jessica had already moved on to next wardrobe. When you are as famous and as popular as she is. An outfit only gets one chance. So move on guys.

They would be ridonkulous if you owned them because you would have to wear them over and over. She has moved on to something else that I would like to see her in.

I love the look, it's the shoes. If they could just be one color? Just remember you young folks "what goes around comes back around"!

She is an adorable girl and can wear pretty much anything she wants. Although her outfit is vibrant, there is nothing obscene or tacky about it. When you have looks and a figure like her, you can wear whatever you want!

The floral prints are back, but this girl doesn't warrant all this coverage, she's cute like a young girl, not like a woman. Sorry

If your a guy you must be gay. She is fine. If your a woman, you wish you looked that good.

I repeat she looks like a child trying to be a woman. Ask a real man and he'll tell you the same thing.
