InStyle.com: How involved were you in the design process?

Britney Spears: First, I met with the Candie’s designers and told them what my favorite styles are. Then, we sketched the items together. I loved it when I saw the samples for the first time.

InStyle.com: So, it was love at first sight. Do you have a favorite item from the collection?
Britney Spears: I love the black trench coat. You can wear it over your outfit or as a dress. There’s also an amazing studded skirt that’s perfect for going out.

InStyle.com: Studs are still a big trend. Were there any other trends you wanted to incorporate?

Britney Spears: I used a lot of studs and lace, because I wanted to make the clothes cool and edgy yet girly. I also love jeans, so I had to make sure there were some great pairs in the collection. And I love jewelry so there are a lot of fun pieces. There are great necklaces and big earrings.

InStyle.com: How do you describe your own personal style?

Britney Spears: My personal style is mix of comfortable and flirty. I love cute little dresses but I also love comfy sweaters and jeans.
