Describe your typical getting ready process:

There isn’t really a typical process because I’m dressed completely differently and have different ideas every day. The things that stay the same are skincare, haircare, just all of the care stuff. That’s the foundation for feeling good in your look. Perfume, too.

What are your favorite things to do in London?

I try to see some of my friends, go to pubs. I love going to Liberty’s — it’s just one of those magical places; I’m just really happy whenever I’m there. And vintage shopping. The vintage shopping is out of control amazing in London.

“I am currently inspired by traveling and all the style I see in the street, especially here in London. That makes it into my music and into my fashion.”
