Singer Lily Allen says her older sister Sarah's style is her biggest influence.

The 29-year-old singer, who makes a statement with her quirky and colourful style, said Sarah's 'garage raving' outfits had aspired to be like her as she grew up, reported Femalefirst.

"My mum has good shoes. So I used to play dress-up with her stuff. But my sister was my idol growing up.

"She was part of that whole garage raving thing and used to wear Versace two-piece denim outfits. I thought she was a legend and I aspired to be like her," she said.

Allen, 29, who recently launched her own collection of fake nail sets for beauty accessories company Elegant Touch. also admitted she finds it difficult to express her emotions outside of music so chooses nail polish shades and outfits that reflect her mood.
 

"Nails and a blow-dry are a fail-safe confidence-booster. Nails are a great way for me to express myself. I can communicate my feelings well in my songs but I'm not very good at doing it face to face.

"Sometimes the way I dress and present myself will give people the red or green light on how to approach.
