Eva Mendes has revealed that she is not a fan of showing off her cleavage.

The actress, who has been dating filmmaker George Gargurevich since 2002, said she avoids wearing anything that reveals too much of her breasts.

"I don't wear short things. As for cleavage, I'll bring the girls out at certain times but I don't parade them too often. I like to keep them for special occasions!" she is quoted as saying.

Mendes added that she prefers to focus on her shoes, commenting: "I absolutely love shoes. I can never have too many pairs. I especially love ones with huge stiletto heels - but it's always a circus act when I walk in them. I am all over the place."

The Hitch star recently remarked that she enjoys her status as a sex symbol.
