Unlike pal Vicoria Beckham, Eva Longoria likes to travel in comfort rather than style.

Whilst Posh is known for stepping off flights immaculately made up and dressed to impress in a killer outfit, the Desperate Housewives star looked refreshingly ordinary in a velvet tracksuit and with her face stripped of make-up as she landed in Washington DC.

In fact, with a bit of extra-padding she could be in character as the future dowdy incarnation of her DH character Gabriella Solis.

But thanks to the magic of make-up and styling, Eva was red-carpet ready for Capitol File's White House Correspondents' Dinner After Party a few hours later.
