I think her skin is a very light tan in general. I don't think she's that dark either. I've seen her in Black Christmas and Ivanhoe and she looks closer to the two photos you've linked than how she did in Romeo and Juliet. But she never really struck me as super pale, even when she plays Juliet.
As for her ethnicity, I think she has some Italian and Argentinian heritage and that she's also Latina, so she's definitely not Anglo.
