The 23-year-old model - who made her modelling breakthrough aged 14 when she posed for her first editorial photoshoot - has admitted she likes to pair high end garments with cheaper options, which are less expensive than a hot drink, because she thinks it is "cooler" to mix her garments.

Speaking about her style, the blonde beauty said: "I like to pair highs and lows. Something a great designer bag with my favourite Express blouse and my favourite sneakers. I think that's the way that women dress today.

"I think it's like modern and cooler when you mix. I don't think anybody really wears outfits, outfits.

"I love high-waisted anything because you just feel tucked in. It's a great feeling. I'm a t-shirt and jeans girl, I really am."

And the catwalk icon - who has modelled for lingerie giant Victoria's Secret, Oscar De La Renta, and Dior - has admitted she has always been a bargain hunter and grew up shopping for "affordable" items with her sisters.

She explained: "I grew up going to the mall with my sisters for fun. I love finding pieces that are really chic and cool but affordable, like a t-shirt that costs less than my coffee. That's the way that I shop and that's what I think is coolest."

Meanwhile, Karlie - who has been announced as the ambassador for the jeans brand Express - believes it is the hardest thing to find a good-fitting pair of denim jeans.

Speaking to PEOPLE about her fashion difficulty, she said: "I think denim is a really hard thing to master. I feel like when you find the perfect pair of jeans, no matter where you find them, when you find the pair that fits your body, that flatters whatever it is you want, buy multiple pairs of them. That's what I do. I just think good denim is hard to come by and when you find it, invest."
