Acquire her style : Alexa Chung.

I am so smitten by the manner in which the gorgeous miss Alexa has interpreted this Valentino confection - absolutely love how she has transitioned a cocktail dress into the context of street wear whilst still maintaining the perfect threshold of chic. 

If I had a copious inflow of cash, I would buy the original in a heartbeat, but I would certainly settle for the ASOS economically chic version. 

Love, Mandy. xx
