I think that's a really cool thing about my line. There are so many sets, but you can literally mix and match everything with everything.

I'm very inspired by a lot of things from the past, from Cher to Diana Ross.

We are the people and America is really nothing without the people. We have to take control and we have realize as young people that this is our future. We have to live here and this where we'll one day raise our own children.

I grew up watching "That's So Raven" and "Lizzie McGuire," and I said to myself that I could do that one day, and here I am. This is a dream come true and I am just ecstatic to be here living out my childhood dreams.

It's important to know when to take your time and not overspend and overdo things, of course. That's why you get things that can be dressed in a thousand different ways.

Sizing was also important to me; I wanted to make sure that nobody felt alienated or felt like they weren't thought about in the process of this brand. I wanted to make sure that everyone felt included, which brings us to the gender neutral pieces - the idea of wearing what you want and whatever makes you feel comfortable and confident. I think that's the overall feeling of the Daya collection.

I think that I get to represent different types of beauty that [are] not just my own.
