She also shared her new collab with Foster Grant sunglasses
a fun and retro line of sunnies for any occasion. Graham said that she had
always had a love for 80s and 90s style and has still held onto it to this day.
She told the audience that her favorite go to outfit is a simple vintage
t-shirt and jeans with booties and of course some stylish sunglasses to
complete the look. Inspired by icons like Madonna, Cindy Crawford, and Grace
Jones she told the audience that she wanted to bring the idea of “eye can see
you, and I can feel you.” to her line. She said that often times her outfits
are created around what sunglasses she decides to wear first.

Besides sharing her amazing style tips she also dished on
how she deals with the stress of fame and finds ways to unwind and take care of
herself amidst her busy career. Her number one tip is to spend less time on
social media. She told the audience it can be harmful to constantly be
comparing yourself and your life to others and said she though it was important
to take breaks. As for how she likes to relax after a stressful day she said
she loves to binge watch the Handmaids tale on Netflix. She told the audience,
“Every time I feel stressed out I think about what Aufred is going through and
I’m like girl, you’re fine.” She also shared that she meditates everyday to
remind herself that, “we’re all the same and in the same journey together.” She
added another piece of advice saying, “Don’t be so hard on yourself. It’s can
be an information overload today and we should just kick back sometimes and
remind ourselves we’re doing pretty ok” Her smart and relatable advice is
something any girl can apply to her life.
