These days I’m into being comfortable and dressing for my body type. I used to dress more according to trend, but now I’m just focused on what’s flattering. I love how everyone dresses for comfort in the South Bay. I used to live in Chicago, and everyone was so put together. But here, it’s more laid-back.

Spencer: The pants are Kill City from a wardrobe stylist. I shot Avril Lavigne’s last music video, and they came from that. My personal style is sort of hippie chic with a mix of trendiness in there somewhere.
Chelsea: Everything I’m wearing is from Australia, where I used to live, except for the boots, which are from Betsy & Tracy in Santa Monica.
