don't you guys think her face is morphing into Caroline Sieber?

You took the words right out off my mouth. I miss her short hair! But maybe now that the bob's too mainstream, she's going the opposite direction...

there is are some quotes from alexa on the last page of the march 2013 issue of allure magazine. she mentions experiencing the tsunami in thailand...i did not know this.

i wonder if l'oreal will also cast her in cosmetic ads. i would not be surprised.

I don't think so. L'Oréal Professionnel and L'Oréal Paris are two separate brands.

So in love with the look in #90, it's like an updated LV AW10.

Alexa Chung has revealed more details about her debut book, which is set for release later this year.

While we clear a space on our shelves for the first literary offering from the model and TV presenter, Alexa is finalising the details and getting creative with pictures and sketches.

She tells Vogue.com: "It's good – it's really fun! I had a meeting with them [Penguin Books] this morning actually. It was a struggle before as I'm so visual – that's how I learn and imagine things. So when I was sending writing to them it was hard as I couldn't envisage it at all.

"But then they sent me the proofs of how it will be laid out and we're deciding where to put images and stuff. I literally have cut-outs of pictures I've taken and I get to be like: 'That one goes there'. It's one of my favourite things to do."

It was initially thought that Alexa was publishing a scrapbook, while some reports claimed she was writing an autobiography. But the model-turned-TV presenter said: "It's because I didn't know what I was doing! That's the problem when people release it to press before you've written a word.

"I'm writing, I'm drawing and I'm taking photographs. It's definitely not an autobiography, but it's me writing so in a way it probably will have that element.

"Drawing is probably the main, number one thing I can do – that I'm best at. It makes sense, if I can get dressed well then that's what I'm good at: visuals. Putting things next to things."

We can't wait to see this! Alexa's made us wanted to get reacquainted with our Pritt Stick... RM

interview with time out new york. she says she is too busy to design


Time Out New York: Who is your dream interview?
Alexa Chung: I’d love to interview Mick Jagger, but that might be scary.
Time Out New York: What song do you currently have on repeat?
Alexa Chung: “Everything Is Embarrassing” by my friend Sky Ferreira. [Watch the music video]
Time Out New York: What music genre’s style do you relate to the most?
Alexa Chung: I’m indie through and through. I’ve always gone out with boys in bands. I designed a collection for Madewell two years ago, and the whole inspiration for that was girls backstage. Maybe I’m pop sometimes. I think now there’s really no distinction throughout the categories. Back in the day it was more clear, but now everything is a bit wishy-washy because indie isn’t indie anymore, because it became popular. Like [now] everyone just dresses like a hipster.
Time Out New York: Who are some of your style icons in music?
Alexa Chung: There are so many. Iggy Pop, George Harrison, Jane Birkin, Patti Smith, Courtney Love…in the ’90s.
Time Out New York: What is your favorite thing to wear right now?
Alexa Chung: Well, today I turned up in my pajamas, so that is sort of an indication of where I’m at, clothes-wise. At the moment I’m into things that are comfortable. I’m on TV every day so I have to wear a full [done-up] outfit, so when I get home I’m really focused on jeans, sweatshirts and comfort.
Time Out New York: What is your style philosophy?
Alexa Chung: Stick to the classics, and you can’t ever go wrong. I see old ladies on the street who have fabulous style and realize it’s because they are probably wearing really classic items that they’ve had for years and years. I think if you find something that suits you, you should just stick to it.
Time Out New York: What’s your favorite era for style?
Alexa Chung: I love the ’60s and sort of wish all design stopped in 1967. That would be my dream. They were really just nailing it, everyone looked great, but then it started getting a bit slippery after that.
Time Out New York: Do you have a typical tiny New York City closet?
Alexa Chung: I have a really small apartment [in the East Village] and small and messy closet. I like how disordered it is, though. I’m never going to be one of those people who is good at organization. But I’m very visual. I have a catalog in my head of things I already own, so it’s easy to shop and I always know exactly what I’m looking for. I collect everything in multiples. You should see how many white shirts I’ve got.
Time Out New York: Where do you like to shop in NYC?
Alexa Chung: I love the Reformation (156 Ludlow St between Rivington and Stanton Sts, 646-448-4925 • 23 Howard St between Crosby and Lafayette Sts, 212-510-8455 • thereformation.com). I think they are really clever, and I like that they use recycled fabrics. It’s often smaller shops like them that can mimic street style quicker and in a more authentic fashion. By the time it gets regurgitated [to larger stores], it’s sort of a watered-down version, but because [the Reformation owners] are friends with the people that are wearing the cool ****, they can just design for their friends.
Time Out New York: What items do you save on? What do you splurge on?
Alexa Chung: I love Gap for affordable men’s sweaters. I tend to splurge on fancy dresses because I always think I’ll get a lot of wear out of them, but it’s false logic. You should really spend more money on the things you wear every day, like jeans. But I only own two pairs of jeans. One I designed for Madewell, so they are literally made to fit me. Another is a cheap pair from Danish brand Vero Moda that I got from a photo shoot.
Time Out New York: What do you look forward to in spring?
Alexa Chung: I like being able to walk outside without wincing at the cold, and I like when my eyeballs don’t freeze over. But I find spring and summer in NYC particularly difficult to dress for because my style is absolutely based on layering. When I can’t do that, I don’t understand what I’m going to do. I hate anything sexy, and I hate a lot of flesh showing, but there’s no other option. If I could walk around in a bikini I’d be okay, because it’s that hot.
Time Out New York: So what’s your go-to spring outfit?
Alexa Chung: Jean shorts always.
Time Out New York: What’s next? Do you plan to design more?
Alexa Chung: I’d love to design more, but I’m just too busy right now. I’m [also] always conscious that I need to do other things like writing, deejaying and TV presenting. I still keep up those pursuits because I don’t think you can rely on an ever-changing industry like fashion to constantly support you. I’m also writing a book right now.
Time Out New York: How is New York style different from British style?
Alexa Chung: New York style is really good because it’s so well put-together. I admire American women because they are really good at putting a look together that is sophisticated. As British girls, we lean toward being a bit more messy, a bit more undone and maybe a little more eccentric. I’m always amazed by how thick and shiny everyone’s hair is and how white everyone’s teeth are. (timeout)

I think she dresses nowadays like olivia palermo and rest of them. she's lost her edgyness.

Her hair looks lovely. Has any one got around of any new candids? Occasionaly i see something on tumblr but they are her blurry twitter shots. There was one were she was wearing her hair up and had white jeans and white silky shirt. I would love to see the whole look? Shame that there is so little of her these days, i like her off duty look more than her dressy dressy pieces.
