Jessica Alba and her familyJessica Alba's kids are teaching her a thing or two about fashion.
The actress, 43, and her Honest Renovations costar Lizzy Mathis appeared on an episode of The Talk and were asked by Amanda Kloots if their kids know how much of a badass their moms are. Alba is mom to daughters Honor, 16, and Haven, 13, as well as son Hayes, 6, whom she shares with husband Cash Warren.
“I think it’s easier to get them to be into you when they’re younger. But I have two teenagers. And they’re like, ‘Oh my gosh, that looks like such a mom thing to wear.’ Or, ‘That’s such a mom answer,' " Alba says, imitating her daughters.

"And I’m like, what are we talking about? I’m trying to spit you game right now. And they’re like, ‘Nobody talks like that anymore.’ And I’m like, what?!"
Alba's costar Mathis shares that Alba's daughters are pretty good at teaching them slang, though.
“They do. And they tell us…remember, they were like, ‘No more tight jeans. You need to wear the wider-leg jeans.’ And it took us a minute,” Alba says.
“The other day we were at the house and her daughter was going out, Honor, her oldest," Mathis continues. "And she was like going out, trying on her clothes. I’m like, ‘No, we can’t wear that! We can’t wear that either.’”
“I was like, ‘Honor. Underwear is not outerwear. It’s still underwear,’ ” Alba remembers. “It goes underneath.”
Earlier this month, Alba shared a series of photos on her Instagram from her night out with her teen daughters as they went to Sabrina Carpenter's Los Angeles concert. In one video, Alba could be seen getting ready for the concert with Haven, using a makeup brush to block the camera and pulling it away to showcase their outfits at the venue.
Alba also included shots of herself and her daughters with a friend, as well as videos and photos of Carpenter during the show.
"A short n’ sweet #GNO @sabrinacarpenter 🪩👯♀️💗," she wrote in her caption.
