Alexa at M&S
What a pairing, the fashionista that is Alexa Chung and good old trusted M&S. I had to take a peek, even though I am trying to be good and save money for the house move. We need to pay the removals people, buy some very boring white goods and other essential items for the new house when all I want to do is buy beautiful things for my wardrobe! So as the Alexa collection has been plastered all over Instagram today, I set about torturing myself as to what I could not buy, and here's my pick of the bunch.Starting with my absolute fav, I love a trench and I love an olive trench (I already have two, in my defence they are very different colours and styles) so I am obviously besotted with this one. My only reservation is whether it is going to be too long for a munchkin like me.
Next up the classic black trouser with a cropped twist. I'm not sure about the styling of these, not keen on the top and definitely do not like the strappy sandals, I would suggest some courts or pointed ghillies would be a better pairing.
It seems it is all about the frills at the moment, and they have come up trumps with this version, which is also available in a blush pink. Again, I am not keen on the styling and think this would work better with trousers, but I do love the shirt.
This also comes as a dress...
Finally, this piece is described as a shirt and styled as a dress, how versatile! It's a bit of a bargain too, in fact all of the pieces are quite reasonably priced I thought, good old M&S.
So what do you think ladies? I think it's a hit. Good work M&S and Alexa x
