It seems Eva Longoria may have been taking tips on casual dressing from her close friend Victoria Beckham.

The Desperate Housewives star managed to make a simple pair of jeans look high fashion with the help of a few Posh tricks.

She teamed the denim with super high heels, carefully colour matched to her long pink wrap cardigan and vest top. With the addition of an Hermes handbag she was ready to go.

Eva wore the outfit to the opening of the new Gap 1969 jeans shop in West Hollywood.

And perhaps unsurprisingly, her clothes came from the chain's upcoming collection.

Also at the star-studded launch were Gap fans Sarah Michelle Gellar, Debra Messing and Kate Beckinsale.

Eva recently looked into her family history on U.S. TV show Faces of America.

On it she learnt about the life of her fifth great grandfather, Pedro Longoria, who lived in northern Mexico - a Spanish colony at that time.

In 1749, Pedro took part in a mission led by the intrepid Spanish explorer Jose de Escandon.

De Escandon was under orders to push the Spanish frontier north and had advertised for people to go with him, promising they would be rewarded with free land.

Pedro Longoria was eventually given 4,500 acres of land by the King of Spain. His land was just north of Rio Grande, in what is today known as Texas.
