These old shots of Alexa Chung attending a Miu Miu show in Paris may just be my all-time favorites of the Anglo-“IT”-girl. The New York Times did a fantastic piece on her just this morning. Is it just me or is her down-to-earth, “undone” approach to life (and fashion) a breath of fresh air?

Her gingham reminds me of the background on Matchbook’s new tumblr…xoxo
Saw the article in the Times – and judging from it, I want to like her but am reserving judgement for the moment – just not 100% sure about someone who said they wanted to look like Kurt Cobaine. LOVE the Valentino shoes though!!
I love her style. Great post!x
i love alexa chung. you should check out her august 2010 shoot for la femme enfant. it’s absolutely stunning!
happy sunday!
I love Alexa Chung.
I do adore Ms. Chung. I have taken photos of her to the hair salon on multiple occasions!
Colleen — I hope that’s a good thing!! xoxo
Quintessence — I wondered about the Kurt Cobain envy too, can’t say I related to that part, haha. xx
Sharon — Googling that shoot now! You’re so full of good tips!
Lauren — That makes two of us!
ACH — Ohhh good call. Her slightly disheveled mane is certainly to be envied.
Yes, of course it is! : )
i adore her. she’s just so effortlessly cool. :) i’m really said her show here in the states didn’t last, i loved it! definitely one of my style icons.
I love this look…our agency worked with Alexa once…she is a DIVA NIGHTMARE and the team vowed to never do it again LOL
Haleigh — Really?! She is the last person I would have imagined… I hope she was just having a bad day…?

She is actually my number one “girl crush” at the minute. Did you see her feature in december’s vogue and november’s teen vogue? SO CUTE.
by the way: YOU are another one of my influences and have inspired me to start my own blog!
I love the NY Times’s line about how she’s like your big sister’s cool friend. Watching bits of her show, I totally feel that way about her. ^_^
