There's A Fun, Retro Vibe To The Clothes

"I've lived in L.A. for about five years now, and whenever I'm driving up in the hills, I think about what it must have been like in the '60s and '70s when there was no technology," says Huntington-Whiteley. "The spring collection really reflects that time in L.A. We're creating a rock-and-roll vibe that's really laid back."

Her Style Isn't Always As Effortless As It Looks

"I wish I could say my style is always effortless, but it's definitely not always as effortless as it looks," she says. "I have picked up some denim tips from Paige along the way and one important thing is to always have a go-to staple pair that can go with anything and transition from day to night. They should be able to go out with your girlfriends, or on a date, or to work."
