More quotes by Alexa Chung
Boys say they don't mind how you get your hair done. But then they leave you for someone with really great standard girl hair and the next thing you know you're alone with a masculine crop crying into your granola.
Alexa Chung
I play guitar a bit. I'm trying to learn drums - I feel like I can play violin. I've never tried, but I just feel like I can.
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.
Alexa Chung
I didn't mean to be a TV presenter, I just hated modeling. It feels very odd that it's turned into this 'It-girl' thing. What does that even mean? I wear clothes and I go out. It's so weird.
Alexa Chung
Nobody goes through life without having their heart broken and one day you'll wake up and it'll be okay.
Alexa Chung
I mix my own lipsticks, so I don't really keep track of the brand as it's usually a number of them I've smushed together.
Alexa Chung
We've had distressed edges. We've had culottes. We've had high waisted jeans, we've seen the heralding of the new bootcut back again. I'm so sorry to say this to you, but the only way forward is ultra-hipsters, you know? Like super-low cut, low-rider jeans, to the extreme.
Alexa Chung
I think it's every girl's dream, a little bit, to be a model because it seems from the outside to be a glamorous industry and I was really into fashion, and I remember just being excited and wanting to be part of that.
Alexa Chung
I think it's about time people stopped judging women on their appearance and more on their intellect. Like you can appreciate my style without having to appreciate my weight. It's not actually mutually exclusive. I just get frustrated because just because I exist in this shape doesn't mean that I'm like advocating it.
Alexa Chung
My dad cut my hair once - I wanted a bob and he gave me a bowl cut. That was a tough few years.
Alexa Chung
Thank you, Jane Birkin, for providing me with infinite outfit ideas and the confidence to dress like a boy but act like a girl.
Alexa Chung
My mother isn't particularly vain. Growing up with a parent who put emphasis on personality over looks was important.
Alexa Chung
I'm not 100% nice all the time, so I find it quite hard to be really pleasant.
Alexa Chung
I can never say a line someone else has given me, which is why script meetings on TV shows always go terribly for me.
Alexa Chung
It's funny because I think that both France and Britain are known for their distinctive styles and everyone says that France is so chic and elegant but I think more than that French women are renowned for dressing in what suits them.
Alexa Chung
English suspenders not American. Could you imagine? Just a pair of knickers and some suspenders. I don't know. How would you wear that? I think this is kind of a cute first date look. A mini sixties Ossie Clark inspired mini dress with a pair on your trotters.
Alexa Chung
The problem with heartbreak is that nobody can help you when you're heartbroken. Nobody and nothing. Not the films you watch alone desperately searching for a character who feels the way you do, not the glasses or bottles of whisky you keep by your bed and certainly not Instagram.
Alexa Chung
I think the challenges that come with the responsibility of art directing something is something that appeals to me.
Alexa Chung
I think as I get older that's an area that I'd like to explore more. Going from being in front of the lens to behind it.
Alexa Chung
I think Maje typifies that French vibe where it's simple items that are very practical, very wearable but also like incredibly chic and expensive-looking.
