Jessica Alba doesn't dress sexily to please her husband. The actress - who is married to Cash Warren, with whom she has two daughters Honor, four, and nine-month-old Haven - has never chosen her outfits to get the attention of guys and only chooses garments that make her feel good. Jessica, 31, said: "There are some women who dress for men. I dress for myself. It took me some time to get here. Being a mom and feeling grown-up have helped. Now if I'm going to wear something short, it has to have a high neck or a little sci-fi toughness to it, an edge.

Alba got her big break at the tender age of 19 as the star of James Cameron's futuristic sci-fi thriller, playing a genetically enhanced freelance operative trying to figure out who she is and how she came to be. Even though Dark Angel gave Alba a career, it also wasn't quite the empowering experience you'd have thought.
