As I've probably stated a gazillion times, Alexa Chung is my ultimate style icon. There is rarely an outfit that I dislike and this Summer she is proving that time and time again!
Summer isn't my favourite season to dress for, but the more Chung I see the more she is changing my mind!
Hey guys!
I did a similar post to this, this time last year and it seemed to go down really well so I decided I'd do an updated version of some current/recent Alexa Chung looks, because she still is my number one when it comes to style!

(I've not picked out the exact items in some looks as the majority are high end brands, and well, I'm a student)

I've finished! It's official, hand in was this week and I was SO happy to finally finish and hand in this project...designing and creating a package was a lot harder than I first thought!
The final piece:
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate Alexa Chung at The Marc by Marc Jacobs FW14 show...
Just over a week ago I shared a different type of post, showing you all my new brief from University and some of my initial ideas. I decided to add a follow on post to show you guys how I'm doing with the project and some pieces of work I've made.
Collage has always been my favourite type of medium to work with and I try and incorporate it into many of the projects that I do, as drawing and painting aren't my strong point. I've combined the image of Alexa and some of the key motifs used by my chosen artist, Alia Penner to create the following pieces:
(I am by no means a pro on photoshop, I am quite the opposite but I'm using it nearly everyday and creating new things to practise practise practise)
15 days till deadline!
Since I seem to neglect this blog a little during assignments at university, I've decided a good way to combine the 2 is to create some posts based around what I'm studying and sources of inspiration for current projects I'm working on!
It's also a good place for me to collate some of my research and findings all in one place.
(For those of you who didn't know, I'm studying Fashion Promotion at University and I'm currently in the second semester of my 1st year.)

If you've been following my blog for a while you'll know that Alexa Chung is my style muse; I am yet to see her in something I dislike, her whole 'look' is just, amazing. Anyway enough about my girl crush on Alexa. I did not even think twice about purchasing this months edition of Vogue magazine, featuring the one on only A.C on the cover.
Inside featured a wonderful shoot where Alexa added her 'tom-boy twist' to the most glorious couture gowns. To some people this may be their worst nightmare, but to me it is just excellent!
I felt like I should share this fab shoot, with even fab-er (did I just make that word up?) model with you all as I just love it/her so much! I've also added some pieces off the high-street to make it all a bit more 'bloggy'.
Sorry for the blab... let me know what you think!
