Kelsea Ballerini Shares Insight Into “Secure” Chase Stokes Romance

“I’ve realized over the last few years, as I’ve woken up to myself, and really stepped into my womanhood, that I’m really open to discovering more of myself,” Kelsea told StyleCaster of her evolution. “I think that’s translating in a lot of different ways in my life, but certainly through fashion, to being open and also realizing that it’s another way to express yourself and play. I’m in such a season of play right now.”

She added, “There is this huge energetic shift within you where you shed your child self and become your adult self. It’s usually surrounded by a lot of friction and a lot of difficult conversations and losing people and that kind of stuff. But then you get to the other side—you’re like, ‘Oh, s–t, here I am.'”
