Alexa Vega is all grown up, and she knows it. The actress, who became known as Carmen Cortez in the Spy Kids film series, took to the red carpet as a full-grown statuesque beauty to promote her latest film, Machete Kills, in which she plays a character named KillJoy.

The 25-year-old beauty showed off her new engagement ring alongside fiancé Carlos Peña, who put a ring on it only almost a year after the two began dating.

The actress was previously married to movie producer Sean Covel, who finalized their divorce around the same time Vega and Peña started dating. Two engagements, a wedding, and a divorce — that’s quite a feat for a 25-year-old.

She pinned her loose curls to one side of her face, completing a rather familiar thigh-high slit look — Angelina Jolie, is that you? Hmm, maybe if Alexa stuck out her leg a bit more.

We love the ingenious idea behind this mesh insert dress, but we can’t help but think that it was created for those with lengthier torsos (we’re looking at you, celebrity supermodels).
Shorter people may have difficulty with the construction; a little nudge at the fabric may result in an unsightly wrinkled belly area. It’s a pretty dress, although it’s not for everyone. Check out this Roberto Cavalli mesh creation:
