The Surprising Billionaire: 8 Interesting Facts About the Creator of Spanx

Emily Co — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 00:15:07 PST

Spanx is a word that most women are familiar with. It's a type of shapewear that helps to smooth away lumps and bumps and also leaves no trace of a panty line. The creator of this product, Sara Blakely, has been inducted to this year's Forbes billionaires list, which was released yesterday. Spanx, an international undergarment company, is worth an estimated $1 billion. Here are a couple of interesting facts about her from a Forbes feature:

She learned how to write her own patent from reading a Barnes and Noble book and she saved $3,000 in legal costs.
She worked at Disney World for three months and spent eight-hour days buckling customers into a ride.
She's the youngest self-made female billionaire in the world.
She has never spent money on advertising.
She owns 100 percent of the company.
She went from just having $5,000 in savings when she was 29 to owning a billion-dollar company at the age of 41 today.
She has her eccentric moments, and her husband describes her as "50 percent Lucille Ball, 50 percent Einstein." Some of her goofiest moments include wearing a boot on one foot and a Christian Louboutin heel on the other in Bloomingdale's, and wearing stretchable candy necklaces and bracelets (bought from a nearby candy store) to the Screen Actors Guild Awards because she left her jewelry at the hotel.
She witnessed a car run over her best friend when she was only 16, and facing mortality at such a young age has driven her. "I think that when you witness death at age 16, there's a sense of urgency about life," Blakely says. "The thought of my mortality - I think about it a lot. I find it motivating. It can be any time that your number's up."

Celeb Style: Alessandra Ambrosio's Off-Duty Cool

Hannah Weil — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 10:18:01 PST

With the kind of effortless off-duty style that first makes you think, "She's pregnant?!" and then, "I want what she's wearing," Victoria's Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio caught our attention making her way around NYC. It's a perfect play on easy pieces and relaxed silhouettes, but the result is far from sloppy. Instead, luxe additions like a covetable Céline tote and a pair of classic riding boots lend polish to a slouchy Joie sweater and dressed-down leggings. A pair of Chanel shades and an essential cool-girl layer - the leather jacket - finish the look. Love the casual-cool vibe? Shop our editors' picks to channel Alessandra's dressed-down edge.
