"Call Me Maybe" singer Carly Rae Jepsen says that LA is her favorite vacation destination, but in this interview with Vanity Fair it sounds like after she arrives, the Canadian native doesn't venture far from her hotel room at the Sunset Marquis. When asked where she likes to shop, Jepsen says: "I am still so new to L.A., that I'll have to get back to you on exact places. I just roam. I like to mix and match vintage with designer. It's how I create my own style." Tips for Jepsen, anyone? [VF]
