Avril Lavigne says her style has matured over the years. The Complicated hitmaker claims she has gone from skater to sophisticated because she’s more mature these days.
“When I was younger, I dressed skater and had that whole thing going on.” she said.
“But as I grew up, I eventually started wearing heels and dresses. Over time, fashion choices change. Now that I’m older and have a clothing line, I’m more into fashion. I like to dress with rock ‘n’ roll elements and be casual. I like jeans with rips and skulls, but now I wear more flattering pieces.
“I would never have worn heels or tight trousers before, or dresses.
“Today, though, I enjoy it. I’ve grown up. Everybody is too focused on outside beauty – people should remember inner beauty is more important. In magazines, everyone is super-skinny and perfect, but it’s not like that in real life. It’s about personality and who you are.
“People who are cool, stand out. But it’s not necessarily the drop-dead gorgeous one or the most skinny person in the room that you notice.
“I have a small frame and I’m athletic, but I don’t really think about it. I like to eat healthily but I believe in moderation. If you want to be bad for a night, go ahead. It’s fun and you should never deprive yourself.”
