Alexa Chung for Madewell
photos from Coutorture
I feel like looking at these photos of the new Alexa Chung for Madewell collection are like playing a game of "I Spy". Let's see... I spy a little black dress with white collar! Blue jeans with polka dot cuffs! Lots of tights with clogs! I have to say I was really looking forward to seeing this collection and I'm not disappointed one bit. I see lots of things I'd like to get my hands on. Now I'm just curious to see how they're going to price the pieces. The nice thing about these vintage inspired lines is it's not too unreasonable to think that you could thrift some similar things if they're not in your price range. I'm already taking a mental inventory of what's in my closet to recreate some of these looks.

Definitely have to agree with you on that. It's why I love anything vintage. I'll follow you :)

Love love LOVE this collection. I want those high waisted jeans and that long skirt! And oh! The socks and clogs!
As for pricing, I know for a fact that it will be ridiculous. I was in Madewell last week and a tiny mini-skirt was $80 freaking dollars!
I'm going thrifting to achieve this look for sure!
Adorable looks! ;-)
i think when i go thrifting, im going to have to bring the pictures with me!
i really like the v-neck overalls!
I love it! I too have been looking forward to this collaboration with pure excitement!!!

What a lovely collection. Vintagey, but not dated looking. I like the natural tones, too. Wearable.
You keep turning me onto things, I've never heard of or seen before. You've got a good eyes. thanks for sharing.
Love this too!!!
I love her sooo much! my fave. I want to go shopping now :)
Where did you find these photos? Are there more? I want to post on mi blog too, but don't want to use the same ones!
i love this collection, although i am not surprised. those high waist denim shorts with the grey tights- love! but it's true- once you break it down, a lot of these looks could recreated easily with pieces in your own closet or thrift store. it's all about the styling:)
I'm very curious where you found these. Could you provide a link?
Thanks,
lauren
There's a link for the photos under the first one. Thanks!
I've always tried not to get too besotted with Alexa (maybe it's a being English thing...not sure). Or I'm just hopelessly jealous of her legs and kitty eyes and perfect hair :o)
Brown velvet dress though...oh my.
The girl with the red flower in her hair - her hair is so awesome! I wish I could have hair like that.
The outfits are very cool, I can totally imagine you wearing them!
I love how everything is coming back to the vintage style. You really can't beat it! Love your blog by the way!!
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!! thank you for this post !! <3
I love everything - I hope the high street does some similar items so I can recreate these looks :)
that light chambray denim-y shirt with the white skirt, brown belt, strap-tastic shoes and grey ankle socks to accent? yeah. i need that.
oo this does look really alexa, I love the denim
in. love.
I'm so excited for this collection I can't even explain!

Oh wow, amazing! I've never seen a more perfect, wearable collection in my style.
Thanks for sharing these pictures. Def going to try and recreate these looks- a trip to the salvo's is in order.
i LOVE that polka dotted dress in the second photo. love love love!
This bugs me...it's styling, not designing. She just remade some old ideas. You could definitely do better thrifting!
Love love love this collection. I totally agree with you about vintage inspired collections...I always find some second-hand inspiration.
I know these images are killing me.. I love it all.. I want it all!
Thanks for the link switcheroo by the way.
Great looks. Thanks for sharing. ;D

all the girls here are soooo cute! and yes, vintage is better than anything else!
Oh my, that velvet! And those polka dot cuffs too--at least those would make a good DIY project. Thanks for sharing!

Every model is just really amazing with what they wear.
