"Something casual and cool, like a T-shirt from Sub Urban Riot. Or an illustrated T-shirt from Valfre and a skater skirt from Amen or Lovers and Friends. Throw on stilettos or boots and I'm good to go. SXSW is all about technology and music—it's not cool to overdress!"
Your nighttime look
"I'm all about ease—a maxi dress and a cute leather jacket. (I just discovered some awesome vegan leather jackets from 12Ten!). If I need to do a complete change: something colorful from AQ/AQ or an LBD from Reformation."
