“Skims is very personal to me and an extension of who I am, so my interests are often reflected in the brand and where we position ourselves,” the 43-year-old told GQ. “Sports and fitness have always been really important in our family growing up."

"Whether it’s skiing every winter or playing a game of tennis on the courts with my parents—or now, with my own children, showing up to cheer on my kids at a soccer or basketball game—I love the way it brings everyone together," she added.
