When in New York, Erin enjoys visiting Far Rockaway beach. But she credits a lot of her success to her Texas upbringing. As she told Teen Vogue, "You can't take the Texas out of the girl. ... I wouldn't have gotten this far in the fashion world if I didn't have a little bit of that Southern hospitality in me."
