For the past three years, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have been the talk of the town. They aren’t shy about their love for one another, and are each other’s biggest supporters. When Shelton is on tour, you can usually find Stefani close by, and sometimes even on stage!

Shelton is just as supportive of Stefani, who recently kicked off her Just A Girl Las Vegas residency. He sat front and center for the first three shows, admitting that his frequent attendance might even classify him as a stalker!

While sitting down with longtime friend Heidi Klum for an InStyle interview, Stefani opened up about her love life, fashion, and of course, her Vegas residency. The “Hollaback Girl” singer has always taken risks when it comes to fashion, but lately, her style has changed more than it ever has – and admitted that Shelton is the reason why.

She described her style as “more feminine than ever before.”

“It’s probably because I’m super in love and have a really manly man [Shelton],” she continued. “I enjoy letting that part of me come out now because when I was in No Doubt, I never thought of myself as sexy. Even in my 30s, I was a tomboy. I hardly ever carried a purse.”

If you don’t believe her, just look at one of her No Doubt outfits, compared to one she wore recently.

When asked what her favorite thing she’s ever worn, the mom of three revealed, “The red Yanina Couture dress (pictured below) I had on when Blake and I stepped out for the first time. That was a magical night, and I loved the flowers.”
