APPEARING at the Global Green USA pre-Oscar party, Jessica Alba wears a to-die-for Viktor & Rolf design accessorised with a snakeskin clutch, leather bow belt, Casadei patent gladiators and hardcore Joomi Lim metal bracelets. We love that she gave her lace-inset dress an edge with the tough accessories, including those dangerously studded bangles.

The Tinseltown beauty, who has made her name starring in films such as Honey, Sin City and Fantastic Four, recently revealed she feels contented knowing she has her own earnings.

“Making lots of money has made me happy – no one else has helped me, I’ve done this all by myself,” she told OK! magazine.

Jessica, who is mum to 21-month-old daughter Honor with husband Cash Warren, said paying her own way is a family affair.

“My dad’s also turned his real estate business around and my brother acts, models and does mortgages, so we’ve all come up in the world,” she added.
