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.

One of my favorite things as a teenage girl was getting dressed up to go to shows.

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 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 pay too much attention to designers, I know what I like and I just try to find it, and I always try to find a cheaper deal because I have a tendency to be a cheapskate sometimes.

I think people assume that whatever kind of music you make is the music you listen to. Don't get me wrong, I listen to tons of pop music and all the music that really inspires Best Coast is very straightforward '50s and '60s pop music, but I've been listening to R&B and rap since I was a kid. I grew up in L.A. It's part of the culture. I listen to anything.

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