(Cover) - EN Star Style - Alexa Chung is always on the lookout for clothes which will make her look like a 12 or 14-year-old schoolgirl.

The TV star started her career as a model, and has seen what she looks like in almost every style going. Due to that she has a great knowledge of what suits her, and has realised she looks best in slightly male-inspired clothing.

Alexa prefers buying vintage items to shopping in designer stores as the clothes are more unique, and is constantly on the hunt for several set pieces. In terms of vintage clothes Im always looking for sheepskin jackets and childrens school coats like old little pea coats that fit a 12 or 14-year-old. Thats my bag, she explained. Remember - do smell it, dont not wash it.

The star is inspired by music when it comes to clothes, with rock stars like Patti Smith and Keith Richards particular favourites. Alexa finds its a look which suits her, which can be difficult when she needs to dress up for a red-carpet event. Shes never sure what to wear to them as her wardrobe doesnt really lend itself to being smart.

I find it very hard to dress head-to-toe in a glamorous, feminine look. I like girly, but then its more like little girl, she laughed. (C) Cover Media
