Jennifer Lopez Responds to Criticism with Bold New Casual Look, Saying ‘It’s Still Too Much!

Jennifer Lopez is taking a break from her usual glam and stepping out in a more casual look. On February 2, The Daily Mail reported the 55-year-old singer and actress was spotted with her daughter, Emme Muñiz, shopping at a vintage store in Downtown Los Angeles. The mother-daughter duo spent quality time together, dressed down for the outing.

Lopez, known for her eye-catching Instagram posts and glamorous red carpet appearances, kept it simple in a natural-toned sweater paired with baggy jeans, brown Ugg boots, and shades. Her hair was styled in a messy updo secured with a clamp. Emme sported a similar casual look with baggy black jeans, a gray-and-black oversized sweater, and grey sneakers.

However, Lopez’s laid-back outfit drew mixed reactions. Some critics expressed surprise at her more understated appearance, with one person commenting, “Didn’t recognize her with clothes on,” referring to her usual attention-grabbing red carpet looks. Others criticized the outfit as too casual, even calling it “homeless chic,” and claiming she didn’t pull off the casual look well. Some felt the outfit made her appear her age, with one commenter saying, “Looking her age and she’s nothing special at all without the filters and 18 inches of makeup.”

On the other hand, there were those who appreciated her toned-down style, with one person writing, “Looks so much better like that, comfy.”

Just days earlier, Lopez had been making headlines for her appearance at the Sundance Festival, where she wore a black sheer floral lace dress with a bedazzled spiderweb design, a nod to the movie “Kiss of the Spider Woman” she was promoting. While some fans thought the dress was too provocative, others criticized her for trying to get attention or trying to attract a man, particularly after her recent divorce from Ben Affleck.

Lopez finalized her divorce from Affleck in January after just two years of marriage, though they’ve kept a cordial relationship since their split. They’ve been spotted together on multiple occasions, including working on projects such as “Kiss of the Spider Woman” and “Unstoppable,” which Affleck produced. Lopez also serves as co-producer for “Kiss of the Spider Woman.”

Despite recent speculations about her love life, Lopez is currently single, while Affleck has been spending time with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner. According to sources, the two have been growing closer, leaning on each other more than ever since their 2015 divorce. Affleck and Garner share three children, while Lopez and Affleck did not have children together.
