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!

I like the 50s, party-movie aesthetic of the beach. I’m not really into modern-day beach.

Stevie Nicks has always been my fashion icon, so I wanted to blend her infamous witchy style with the 90s valley girl theme that I was so entranced by as a young girl.

Fashion Girl Icons
I always get pissed that I can’t make my voice sound like someone from the 50s who had a very girly, innocent voice, like Leslie Gore.

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

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.

Advice Being Giving Yourself
I am a true believer that a record should not be a bunch of songs that sound exactly the same.

Records Song Sound
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.

I’m working all the time. When I’m home I try to split my time evenly between resting and preparing for another tour, and writing stuff.

One of the cooler moments of my life was sitting front row at Helmut Lang!

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
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.

Needs Thinking Writing
There are days where I turn on the TV or I look at the news and I’m like, “I want to go to Mars. This is insane.” But I can’t go to Mars! I need to face reality and just to have some hope.

I was looking at pictures of cats laying out on the beach and I thought, “Cats hate water, so why would they like the beach?” But then I realized that cats like to just lay around and lounge and be lazy, and what better place to do that than on the beach?

I’ve always been interested in fashion, and Urban Outfitters presented me with a huge opportunity to pursue that interest.

There are a shitload of songs about being in love with someone who doesn’t love you back and I talk about weed and my cat and being lazy a lot.
