My mother isn't particularly vain. Growing up with a parent who put emphasis on personality over looks was important.

More quotes by 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.
Alexa Chung
If my boyfriend finds me sexy, then I don't need that kind of male attention from anyone else.
Alexa Chung
Not everything happens for a reason. Sometimes life just sucks.
Alexa Chung
I would say probably Paris [Hilton]. Because to me that's her in character and she kind was always sort of winking at the camera. There was satire I think involved in what she was doing. I like to think there was.
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 cool that London Fashion Week is about young designers trying wacky things.
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
It's shot by Ben Rayner who I think is very talented at doing portrait photography as well as fashion photography. His images never look like a model. You know, it doesn't look like a faceless model just wearing whatever. There's always personality that comes through. That was quite important for me to capture.
Alexa Chung
I would get very bored if I just did one thing.
Alexa Chung
I get a lot of fashion gifts, but rarely do I get something that's just fun.
Alexa Chung
When I was going to Paris for Paris Fashion Week, I'd often walk down the street and go into all the different shops that we didn't necessarily have in the UK and Maje was definitely one of the ones that stood out for me.
Alexa Chung
I tend to splurge on fancy dresses because I always think I'll get a lot of wear out of them, but it's false logic. You should really spend more money on the things you wear every day, like jeans.
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
My look is pretty low maintenance, I have a great team around me for hair and make-up, and they have also taught me some great tricks over the years for when I'm doing my own.
Alexa Chung
I don't ever want to stop learning. And I really want to learn French fluently. It would be great to go and live in France.
Alexa Chung
I'm very selfish! I'm only thinking about how I would look in clothes, and not how we as a society might appear in those clothes.
Alexa Chung
I hate online bullying. Those little comment boxes can brim with the most vicious, acidic, and pointless remarks.
Alexa Chung
It was genuinely horrible. I stopped using Twitter for a while because I got so much s**t about being anorexic. And Im not.
Alexa Chung
I was at school when Britney Spears' 'Baby One More Time' came out. I changed my uniform to look like hers. I just looked slutty after that, so thank you, Britney.
Alexa Chung
Listen, the idea that I might be a fashion soothsayer is very flattering but completely inaccurate.
