(Spoiler: you can't.)
As much as I wish I could, I've come to terms with the fact that I will never be Alexa Chung. No matter how many times I read "It", no matter how many times I've been compared to her on social media just for having brown hair with bangs and wearing knee socks, I just have to accept it.
The next best thing, however, is being able to buy clothes that she has designed/worn. Thanks to my hobby of hunting for 10+ year old pieces on secondhand websites, I now have a small Alexa Chung clothing archive in my wardrobe. At the very least, I can be an Alexa Chung cosplayer.
Alexa Chung for AG Denim A-Line Skirt
From her 2015 collection with AG Jeans, this skirt was the first Alexa Piece I bought, and it's still one of my favourites. It's such a good upgrade from the Forever 21 denim button down skirt I wore in high school.
Alexa Chung for AG Denim Dress
I've had some difficulty with this dress because as much as I love it, I feel like it can look a bit too long on me. I unfortunately do not have Alexa Chung's height, so I always need to make sure to pair this dress with shoes that make me taller (which is not a problem at all, I absolutely love heels/platforms). Other than the length, this dress fits me perfectly!
Alexa Chung for Madewell Overalls
This item I actually haven't worn yet and you can probably tell by how wrinkles it in my photo on the upper right from being in storage, but it is THE softest article of clothing I own, and the powder blue color is something I have been so into lately.
Alexa Chung for M&S Faux Leather Skirt
My wardrobe had been lacking in leather skirts ever since I got rid of the two I had from H&M and wore all throughout high school. While I honestly really miss them (and i always got compliments when I wore them), this one from Alexa's collaboration with Marks & Spencer helped fill the void a bit. Now I just need to get a leather skater skirt and I'll feel even more like my 2014 self again.

Alexa Chung Wool Blend Mini Skirt
One of two items I have from Alexa's own fashion line (rest in peace </3) is this super cozy wool/mohair blend plaid mini skirt. I am debating on selling it on not because it is slightly too long on me for my liking, but the skirt is just too adorable so I will have to continue to ponder this. I honestly don't want to let it go.
Alexa Chung Pink Gingham Dress
There is a higher possibility that I will sell this dress. I love it so much, but it should be a size smaller. I bight it partially because I thought it would've been great for my Electra Heart halloween costume last year, but I ended up buying a different pink dress that fit me better.
Topshop Leopard Print Mini Skirt
This one is kind of like a bonus because it's not an Alexa Chung design, but she did wear it! And so did I <3
And Finally, another item I haven't worn yet, because I'm still waiting for them to come in the mail! I was the highest bidder on these skinny jeans from eBay and got them for less than $5 (no one else bid, lucky for me).
