I was never really that great at sewing, but I had a good idea of what I wanted things to look like.

It’s very strange that people would consider me a fashion muse but it’s also flattering. I try to just be myself, and wear what’s comfortable and makes me feel good.

I went to school for a short period of time to study fashion. I wanted to become a stylist or a designer. I made clothes when I was a teenager that I used to sell online. My label name was “Baby Jesus” – so incredibly stupid, but whatever, I was 17!

That, to me, is what I feel like is the future. If I have a daughter, if you have a daughter, becoming that ideal where it’s not about your gender; it’s about us being human, being in this together.

Becoming Daughter Together
My favorite record of all time is Fleetwood Mac’s Tusk. It’s made up of a bunch of songs that don’t really sound the same, but they all go really well together.

Song Sound Together
Making music can sometimes make me a bit restless, so it’s fun when I get to be expressive in another way.

We went from being a band that was recording songs in my bandmate’s bedroom to a band that’s doing extensive touring and had a record on the Billboard charts and everything happened insanely fast, but it’s not something that I sought out. It just happened.

I don’t think lyrics need to be deep – just write whatever comes out of you. You don’t need to find intense meaning in everything.

I don’t really listen to a lot of 90s alternative indie female stuff anymore, but I loved Liz Phair and Kim Deal when I was younger.

I buy most of my clothes online, I just sit around and look at websites and say ‘oh that looks cute’ – and then I just buy it and hopefully it fits because buying stuff online is always sort of risky.

Getting to be involved with fashion is one of the coolest things I’ve done.

Advice I would give to anyone trying to find their own personal style: don’t copy anybody, just be yourself, and make your own trends.

Advice Being Giving Yourself
I found all these stupid pictures of cats at the beach, and I was like, “They get it, man. They totally get it.”

Touring is definitely work. You’re spending a lot of time in the car and around the same people and it’s not the easiest thing in the world, but it’s better than working a 9-to-5 job or something.
