4. "Vivienne Westwood pirate boots. Everyone has the old ones, but my mum dyed mine black so they look different."
5. "A really old Miu Miu black elastic-waist belt that I wear every day to pinch me in."
Daisy out and about.
Your look has a really personal feel to it. How would you describe it?
"Like a fairy pixie doll, but with a little bit of a vintage twist. Like a dirty fairy. I like to mix it up—old vintage fabric dresses with exotic Tibetan jewelry, flowers, headbands, that sort of thing."
What will you be wearing this summer?
"Agent Provocateur swimsuits, which are really flattering for womanly figures. Old vintage caftans and hippie headbands. I just bought a pair of Miu Miu gladiator sandals in brown to go with all of my white lace dresses for summer. Oh, and Miu Miu boy shorts, which I'm wearing right now."
Snapshots of Daisy.
Who would you say has influenced your style the most?
"Definitely my mum, because growing up I stole her clothes. I like films too—Barbarella, Valley of the Dolls. The styling in that film is amazing. Also True Romance—I'm obsessed with Patricia Arquette in that film. Of the modern girls, I like Lily Allen and Sienna Miller. I admire their style, but I don't take stuff from them; I don't try to dress like them."
Did growing up in a rock-n-roll environment have a big impact on your style?
"Everyone classes me as a rock chick. And I'm extremely into my rock chick look, especially when I go to shows! I go to gigs a lot. I also think that style is influenced by what people listen to."
