Not even Eva Longoria is immune to wardrobe malfunctions.

The perfectly groomed actress suffered an embarrassing episode when she was  caught  wearing a pair of shoes with the price tag still - on U.S television.

Eva was left red-faced when she was alerted to the sticker on the sole of her shoes
during a segment of 'The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson'.

The Desperate Housewife, 32, removed them immediately though, as the audience was shocked to learn they cost a hefty $695.

But the mishap will surely not effect think-skinned Eva, who revealed she had a tough time breaking into Hollywood.

She said: 'When I went to LA I knew nobody. I had no money, no car and no job. I just literally went with a suitcase and I was not one bit scared.

'I felt someone was watching over me. I really think it was God saying: 'This is your path. This is where you have to be.'

'I felt no fear. I was like "wow this is where I belong".'

Eva readily admits she was always hungry for stardom, citing 'ambition' as her favourite word.

The Texan born former beauty pageant contestant has said: 'I love that word. When people say, "describe yourself in three words", I'd say "ambition", "charisma" and... a "little crazy".'

After landing bit parts - and the occasional modelling job - she eventually scored the role on the soap The Young And The Restless before finding international fame on Desperate Housewives.

The newly discovered shoot is are in stark contrast to the new glamourous - albeit airbrushed - promotional images released this week ahead of hit series' fifth season.

Eva is gearing up for yet another transformation - her character gets a mumsy makeover in the upcoming episodes, which picks up in the year 2013.
