Alexa Chung

I'd love an ID on those shoes too!

The black dress is by Charles Anastase, she wore a similar dress to the NME Awards.

The blazer was id-ed in her Italian Grazia editorial but I can't read it (Aqua something??), maybe someone with better eyesight can help you out..

Not sure about the rest, I'd like to know where those shoes are from too though.

Someone has uploaded the Fashion TV series Alexa did while modelling to youtube. I'll post the first few, there's 18 in total.

If you feel the need to hear Alexa say "What do I know, I'm just a model" thirteen more times, click here.

I'm pretty sure it says her jacket is by Aquascutum.

Thanks alot guys! Hopefully someone can ID the shoes and jeans for us

On another note, does anyone have close up photos of her two tone ballet pumps? I say this because i recently made a trip to French Sole, and they had a big magazine article on Alexa and how she owned their two tone ballet pumps, although fairly recently Alexa was quoted in an interview to say that the Chanel two tone pumps were on her wish list, which makes me suspect the ones we seen her papped in are the French Sole ones after all...a close up shot will show us the Chanel logo or not. Eitherway, i'd love the Chanel ones

^ I think they have been described as Chanel pumps in the Guardian and other interviews.

To begin with, I think she was wearing French Sole's version

But last December, in Grazia, she mentioned that she had just bought the Chanel ones.

Ahh that makes complete sense! I actually didn't like the French Sole versions that much, they are not very nice when worn (although Alexa makes them look pretty). Plus the Chanel ones in the Grazia shoot look distinctively more beige in appearance compared to the ones shes posing with Kelly, which is true to the Chanel ones i seen in store. Thanks guys! I guess i need to start saving my pennies!

On another matter, does Alexa wear the Chanel liquid eyeliner or Mac fluid line? She is quoted to say she wore both, and although i use the Chanel one because it is so easy to use, i don't find it gives you that very black appearance Alexa acheives...perhaps i am sh*te in applying it! Who knows

 

[laisla]

she wears MAC Fluid Line [+ Maybelline Define A Lash mascara]

I adore her little two-tone flats. I was obsessed with finding some good knock offs a while back but nothing compares to the real thing. so gorgeous in a chic Parisian mum kind of way...

 

[mahdama]

I guess i will be giving the Mac version a try next and compare! I am extremely picky about eyeliner and have been for years, so it seems fitting to take Alexas lead when she too has said eyeliner is her big thing

Absolutely love the Mulberry patent Bayswater bag, i find it a younger/modern take of the Hermes Birkin. And grey is my new big colour. It's just so versatile. I recently treated myself to the Roxanne bag which i adore, it's just so preppy. I feel like a school kid It's also fab for work. The Bayswater might be my next save...perhaps some point next year. I need the Chanel pumps before then

 

[mahdama]

I just bought that last dress, it's beautiful...

Hi Caroulemapoule, do they still stock this dress at Arrogant Cat? I thought it must be last season, i absolutely adore it!

I really like Alexas style especially when she wears pieces inspired from the 60's, or channels the little French girl. It’s funny because I feel like I have been dressing like her for years, but then she comes along and does one better! Her cute shirts teamed with those killer Balenciaga jeans and pumps are always a winner. It’s been a look of mine for some time, yet she just manages to make this simple combination so desirable. The smock dresses/black tights have also been a staple of mine for years, i too have the skinny leg/curvy hip syndrome that Alexa once spoke about herself, and they work a treat to balance my figure. Although again, Alexa rocks the look like no other. Absolutely love that sailor dress in the Grazia Italian shoot, teamed with the black socks and ankle boots she looks adorable. All the nautical and stripes are fabulous. And those above the knee socks are killer on her. She does have fabulous pins. Lets not forget her preppy style. Loving all her blazer combos. I also love her vintage coat with the cropped sleeves and lacing she’s often papped in. It’s funny because I have trotted down to Shoreditch vintage stores where probably the likes of Alexa shop and I never seem to find anything near enough scrummy. And her hair cut has definitely transformed her looks. Ok, my nonsensical rant stops here...for now J

Mahdama: I have no idea actually. I am from Denmark I snapped it up at ebay

I have to say, from these photos, I can't tell the difference at all!

Yes it really is very subtle, i am a French Sole junkie so i know their shoes inside out. But there is a subtle colour difference and difference in shape- thats the only tell tale sign.

Oh i see thanks for clearing that up!

Me neither! But she was wearing some sort of knock-off until last December, and French Sole must be sure it was their version, otherwise they wouldn't advertise it in their shops.

 

[lollicandy]

^Yeah, I thought they were French Sole earlier in the thread but someone said they were Chanel! I tried looking through pics of some Chanel flats and they didn't look like the ones she was wearing.

Sometimes French/London Sole has sales and they had those shoes for $75 off. I should've gotten them.
