I just think it shows that she loves attention....!

I think you are right on the money. It reeks of desperation to be noticed to me.

 

[elzbelz135]

Yes however much I love Alexa sometimes I question some of her actions, and lets be honest the girl has never had much of an understanding of the value of money. Most of the designer clothes she has have been given to her for free, if she had to pay for them herself I doubt she'd be jumping into a pool full of chlorine in them

 

[HeatherAnne]

From the pictures I've seen everyone at that party was jumping into the pull fully dressed not just Alexa, and it was hardly a free spirited move she changed out of the sequin dress into the polka dot t-shirt dress to do so. I don't find it disrespectful towards the brand, my god all of the pictures are practically an advertisement, that's why these stars were paid to be there to garner attention and be photographed.

I agree it's silly given the cost of her dress but she still looked cool doing it...

agree

I don't get what's the big deal about her swimming in the dress... Either she bought it or it was given to her to keep (?) so it's hers to swim in. And according to the yoox site it's cotton so it's not going to get ruined by water. Plus how many celebs even re-use their clothes..

Yes, I was just about to point out... it's 100% cotton! Maybe we should be pondering why a 100% cotton dress should even cost that much...

Or, she could just have got a swimsuit.

[loonaka]

Not a big fan of the shoes the rest of the outfit is ok, but a bit boring IMO

I love the whole look! Simple, but she does casual outfits so well, it's what put her on the fashion radars.

 

[Not Plain Jane]

^ Agreed. Alexa is keen on the bright lipstick lately. I just got a Madewell shipment (shop online, no Madewells here) and everything is lovely! Cute styling, and nice quality for the price point. I have the Alexa bat "Hello" Tshirt dress, very nice too.

 

[iammarcelle]

So adorable. I love that the shirt has a vertical stripe in it. In a way it reminds me of a top from an upscale pajama set. But in a good way if that's possible! So good.

 

[nita-karoliina]

Love her casual look here. cute shoes! brand?

 

[DiamondSea]

The shirt is from her upcoming Fall 2011 collection for Madewell
