Jessica Alba wowed to never wear mini-shorts

The US beauty Jessica Alba says she will never wear "booty shorts" although she admits she feels more "adventurous" with her style since.

The actress has made the top 100 of various lists - including the 100 Hottest Women of All-Time by Men's Health magazine - over the years and despite her stunning figure, Jessica is "confident" she will never be seen wearing the itsy-bitsy item of clothing.

She told InStyle magazine: "I probably won't ever wear booty shorts. I feel pretty confident about that. And I don't like oversize shoulder pads, but I do appreciate a strong shoulder profile, like the ones [designer] Isabel Marant is doing."

Jessica, 31, believes any piece of clothing can look good on a person - as long as a tailor is available to alter the item to fit correctly.

Listing various retailers, Jessica advised: "Whether you shop at H&M, Topshop, Target, Forever 21, or buy high-end, if the piece doesn't fit, it will be halfway there. So get your jackets nipped in at the waist and your pants hemmed at the perfect place. If you get your clothing tailored, you can look like a million bucks."

She also believes her style has become "more adventurous" since becoming a mother to daughters Honor, four, and 16-month-old Haven with husband Cash Warren and she now loves to wear bright patterns and prints.

Jessica continued: "In the past, I was into my uniform of leggings and a sweater. Now I'm willing to try bold prints, bright colours and different cuts. I feel confident about my ankles and feet - I'm not afraid to show them off with open-toe sandals. But there has to be a strap across the toes to look good."
