She dished on her thought about denim and 'mom denim' revealing she got her first pair of jeans passed down to her from her sister!

"I didn't get jeans for so long. I wasn't allowed to wear jeans. Eventually I inherited a pair from my sister, I don’t know what brand they were, but I was so admiring of them. She’s two years older exactly. As she would outgrow them, my mom would add embroidery tape on the bottom — that was a very common thing to do with jeans in terms of height. You would just add a wide, sort of tapestry. It’s actually kind of cool — we should encourage some big denim person to do that!"

On her thoughts about 'Mom Jeans' she offers, "I think one of the many things that people love about denim is that it’s a very personal experience. You really look to put your own shape and DNA and finger prints all over it when you buy jeans. What you're trying to do is make them yours. When I see a jean on someone else and I think, 'Oh God, I want to get that,' what I soon figure out is that's great for her because she has this build and this shape, but it's not right for me."
