Becki Newton refuses to take fashion seriously.

The 'Ugly Betty' star - who plays clothes-obsessed receptionist Amanda in the hit US show - says she likes to have fun with her look and wouldn't want her life ruled by having the latest trends.

She said: "I read fashion magazines all the time. It's fun, but I don't take it very seriously. I find if you take hair, make-up and clothes too seriously, you'll become like Amanda - and that's a cautionary tale!"

However, Becki admits she enjoys being given free clothes and accessories by designers.

She told Britain's Look magazine: "As an actress, one of the perks is having access to ridiculously expensive clothing and prancing around on the red carpet. Who wouldn't want to have fun with that?

"I've managed to get some beautiful bags. I have a great collection and so does my mother. My favourite is a purple one by Gucci, which I take everywhere!"
