Alexa Chung, Queen of Cool
The host of It's On with Alexa Chung makes looking good look easy — yeah, she's that girl — with a deft mix of high and low style.
Alexa Chung already has a loyal following across the pond as a cheeky TV personality and model. Now the 25-year-old Brit is charming us stateside as the coolest MTV host since Downtown Julie Brown. As with her predecessor, it's Chung's irreverent spin on conventional dressing (she wears H&M with Chanel) that's also leaving quite the impression. "I hate dressing up," she says. "I never feel like me." Instead, the self-proclaimed tomboy prefers the more laid-back vibe of her style icon, pop chanteuse Françoise Hardy. "She always looked sexy without wearing ass-skimming or boob-flashing clothes." Here, Alexa Chung does it her way.
