{Giveaway} Alexa Chung's It

Equal parts style guide, memoir and scrapbook, Alexa Chung's must-anticipated first book is as good as you always hoped it would be... But let's be real, is there anything Alexa can't do? Packed with photos, illustrations and cool-girl musings galore (sigh), this book is like your very own portal into Chung's world... In the least creepy way possible.
So in the spirit of paying it forward, I teamed up with Penguin to give away a copy of It to one lucky reader... Just get your entries in using the app below, and check back next week to see who the winner is! xx

{Copy Cat} Alexa Chung

I've admired Alexa Chung's style for quite some time now because, let's face it, the girl has a way with clothes. It doesn't hurt that she's tiny and gorgeous to the point where even a ratty old potato sack would look good on her, but I digress. Reflecting on what makes here style so iconic and enduringly chic, I think it all comes down to effortlessness and accessibility, and to prove it (at least the accessibility part), I pulled items from my existing wardrobe to mimic Alexa's style. Even though my version is nowhere near as spectacular as hers, I had a lot of fun recreating her look with items I already had in my closet... And if I can mimic her style with little-to-no effort, you can too.

Happy Tuesday, lovelies! xx
