Britney Spears December Lucky Magazine Cover 2012 | Pictures

Britney Spears looks dressed for the holidays, in a polka-dot Stella McCartney top and red skirt, on the December cover of Lucky. The pop star sat down with the magazine to chat about her fashion icons, J Lo and Sarah Jessica Parker, to whom she credits with inspiring her style. Britney also opened up about fame and balancing her duties as a mom, fiancée to Jason Trawick, and an X Factor judge. She's adding another element into the mix next week when The X Factor begins airing live shows starting Nov. 1. Here's more from Britney Spears in Lucky:

• Britney on her free time: "I work out. I swim. I play with the kids, I cook and I garden. We play Connect Four. We play Candy Land."
• Britney on the perks of being a superstar: "I get, like, these giant boxes of lip gloss and nail polish, and it's like candy. I really just wear mascara all the time. And powder, because I have zits."
• Britney on her favorite products: "I love Clearasil face wash, I’m old-fashioned."
• Britney on her sons' reaction to her fame: "They're in the middle right now of trying to figure it out. They try to figure out where I go when I go to film X Factor. They're like, 'Mommy's going off to be a superhero.' And then I get back, and they just see me as Mommy. And then when I'm back working on the show, they say, 'Oh, Mommy's a superhero again!'"
