Alexa Chung
When people ask me
"so...what do you do for fun?" I can't help but confess the truth that may lead to
a few raised eyebrows....not to our fashionistas of coarse. Yes, I am an Alexa
Chung stalker. And when I'm not filling my files with hordes of magazine
clippings or google image downloads, I'm shopping for look-alike outfits. Who
can blame me?? This British bomshell has a designer wardrobe that should
have it's own strut on the runway. And let's not mention the Mulberry Bag named
in her honor. See my tips on how to get her style:

1) A master in the art of
mixing shapes and materials and combining feminine and masculine pieces to
create an ensemble I try and imitate on a daily basis - yes I confess yet
again. For that androgynous style try pairing a shirt with a sweater or boyish
blazer and an ultra feminine skirt in floral prints or bright colors. Oh! and
lets not forget the brogues!
2) Alexa is often seen in
short and sweet feminine frocks. They remind me a bit of Sunday school dresses
or Rachel Berry from glee but none the less I am in love with this 5 year old
girly girl look. Be on the look out for pretty prints and soft tones and then
add something super quirky like red tights or an ethnic patterned jersey.
3) To make any look
"Alexafied", incorporate a collar. Mix a peter pan collared shirt and
one of your uber girly dresses and there you have it. If you are looking for a
more girl-meets-boy vibe, swap your peter pan for a sharper edge.
4) And for
this season grab as many coats and wooly knits as you can find and squeeze them
into your ensemle and there you have it.
Simples!
