Model Kate Upton likes to look alluring and sexy, but she says she is aware of where to draw the line so that she does not come across as "cheap and cheesy".

"It's just part of my personality, and maybe some things I took too far, but I like being sexy," Upton told the US Vogue magazine, adding that she "definitely has limits".

"There's a line between becoming, you know, a little cheap and cheesy versus being sexy. And I try to be very careful of that line," she added, reports contactmusic.com.

She has recently been appointed the new face of cosmetics company Bobbi Brown. She will star in their ads from July.
