While The City's Roxy Olin wore a dangerously revealing jumpsuit today (was I the only one holding my breath the whole time?), Alexa wore on a fall-forward chiffon-trim black-and-white silk blouse from J. Crew. Here's what else Alexa Chung wore on today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung.

Tuesday, October 27
+ Shirt: J. Crew
+ Jeans: Topshop
+ Shoes: Marni
+ Necklace: Iosselliani

Pick up this gorgeous silk top for yourself. It's $98 at JCrew.com.

Gather 'round fashiony friends. It's time to talk brilliant blazers and leather bottoms (again) -- in this case Ashlee Simpson's leather pants! Here's what Alexa Chung wore on today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung.

Thursday, September 3
+ Cardigan: PPQ
+ T-shirt: J. Crew
+ Skirt: American Apparel
+ Shoes: Marni
+ Stockings: Hue
+ Necklace: Iosselliani

These white blazers with black trim are SO deliciously Gossip Girl gone REAL bad. The cropped tux jacket on the left is by Jaeger London, and it's $371 at My-Wardrobe.com. The mohair jacket on the right is Marc Jacobs, and it's $2002 at My-Theresa.com. (Sorry.)


This American Apparel black circle skirt is $45 and it's almost enough to make me want to learn to ice skate. Almost. (BTW, is that model one of the porn stars? I so can't even keep up.)

Okay, let's discuss Ashlee-Simpson and her LEATHER PANTS! First of all, can you even BELIEVE a human body came OUT of her human body?

Anyway, Pete Wentz's wifey was in some TIIIIIGHT-ass leather pants. Want your own? The leather pants on the left are Preen, and they're $808 at Matchesfashion.com. Saving for college? (Snore!) Get the leather pants on the right at Alloy.com for $39.90. Boing!

And we're back! I wanted to RIP THAT NECKLACE FROM AMBER VALLETTA'S THROAT! But she's way taller and probably much stronger than me. Then I got distracted by Boys Like Girls' live performance. (Watch it after the jump!) But I digress. Here's what Alexa wore on today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung.


Tuesday, September 1
+ Shorts: Moschino
+ T-shirt: Alexander Wang
+ Sweater: J. Crew
+ Necklace: Iosselliani
+ Shoes: A.P.C.

Now I know the idea of '80s-inspired metallic ankle-length disco pants may make you itch, but Marc Jacobs made them, and Marc Jacobs can't be wrong, right? (And they're very Phillip Lim, and he's NEVER wrong). These are JUST $2109 at MyTheresa.com. Get 'em before they're GONE!

... Or, go with more subdued jacquard J. Crew shorts. Betty Draper would totally wear these. They're $98 at Jcrew.com.

Key transitional piece from summer to fall: Topshop's slouchy navy blue cardigan. It's just $40 at Topshop.com.

And you can get Alexa's A.P.C. "Sparta" gladiators are $390 at usonline.apc.fr.

+ After the jump, watch Boys Like Girls perform "Love Drunk" from today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung.

WOOD HEELS! WOOD HEELS! ZOHMAHGAH! WOOD HEELS! Oh yeah, and is Seth Green not the cutest human (besides Michael Bruno)? So, to recap today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung: wood heels, Seth Green, Nick Kroll, a bananas Flo Rida performance AND cats. And gymnastics, courtesy of Make It or Break It's Chelsea Hobbs. All in just one episode of It's On With Alexa Chung. Okay. Here's what Alexa wore today.

Thursday, August 13
+ T-shirt: Alexander Wang
+ Cardigan: An Alexa find from the Portobello Market in London
+ Shorts: Re Collection
+ Belt: J.Crew
+ Necklace: Chanel
+ Shoes: Marni

Alexa picked up her striped cardigan at the Portobello Market in London. Shop closer to home: this Urban Outfitters striped cardigan is just $48.

Okay, YAY it's time to talk wood heels! These Brian Atwood heels are cork and wood and patent leather, and they're so wonderful I'd marry them if that were more acceptable. Get them for $199.50 at theOutnet.com.

Additional wood/ cork heeled beauties from Brian Atwood. $199.50 at theOutnet.com.

Um, hi. These wood heels are FOURTEEN BUCKS. Forever21.com. I KNOOOOW!

Oh yeah, and get youse a gorgeous feather headpiece like the one Chelsea Hobbs was wearing at Pluma. They're like $48-ish each and handmade (!!) at Plumashop.com.

Today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung was noteworthy for several reasons. For one, it's day TWO of Alexa Chung's CAT WEEK! I'm way into that. You may've been way more into the TWO Victoria's Secret Angels Alessandra Ambrosio and Marisa Miller, who are not unattractive according to any reasonable person's standards.

Alessandra Ambrosio and Marisa Miller also danced and bounced and talked about bras and boobs and talked like normal people. Were you surprised, or did you not really even hear them talk, because of how much they DON'T look like normal people? Also, MTV go-to guest Pete Wentz was there and Mark Hoppus surprised him (surprise!)

AND Alexa wore leather shorts a la Ashley Greene! AND saddle shoes... here's more on what Alexa wore.

Tuesday, August 11
+ Sweater: Etoile by Isabel Marant
+ Shorts: 3.1 Phillip Lim
+ Shoes: G.H. Bass & Co.
+ Necklace: Chanel

Parisian designer Isabel Marant makes gorgeous and dreamy, elegantly casual (usually an oxy moron, I know) pieces that are ANNOYINGLY DIFFICULT TO FIND IN THE STATES. Fake the funk and belt this J. Crew sweater instead. It's $24.99.

Are you pro saddle shoes or no saddle shoes? If you're unsure, get a pair for under $20. Payless has saddle shoes for $17.99. (They're called Payless for a reason.)

+ Again, see how to get your own leather shorts, courtesy of Ashley Greene!...

Looking at the pic above, you'd guess that American Idol winner Kris Allen was pleading for mercy while having the life choked out of him by Alexa. But on today's It's On With Alexa Chung, our affable host was merely offering her lap as a polite gesture while Kris recounted the time a rabid fan jammed her tongue down his throat at a concert. Ah, the trappings of stardom... either way, Alexa looked cute (as usual) in her casual-but-fun shirt dress and accessories. Here's what she wore:

Monday, August 10

+ Dress: Uniqlo

+ Necklace: J.Crew

+ Necklace: Chanel

+ Ring: YSL

I'm sorry, TV's Jeremy Piven. But you were ALMOST upstaged by Alexa Chung's spectacularly well-thought-out outfit today on It's On With Alexa Chung. The truth is, I'm feeling the Comme des Garcons' "Play" collection (so Kanye West!) a lot more than I'm feeling blonde highlights on a dude. Is this a safe place for safe sharing? Because I just shared. Here's what Alexa wore today.

Thursday, August 6
+ Cardigan: Comme des Garcons
+ Polka-dot Shirt: Yaya Aflalo
+ Shorts: Re Collection
+ Shoes: Russell & Bromley
+ Belt: J. Crew
+ Owl Necklace: Emily Elizabeth

You show that recession who's bawse! Trade 350 American dollars for a Comme des Garcons "Play" cardigan in camel. The little angry heart emblem is worth $50 AT LEAST. Get it at Tresbienshop.net.

I'm also really into the Comme des Garcons "Play" black-and-white striped t-shirt. It's $137 at Saks.com and has a kind-of Pete Wentz-ian Clandestine vibe, no?

If you can't find a polka-dot shirt at Forever 21, you don't even deserve to shop. Seriously. This one's $15.80. Love it. Layer it.

HUGE It's On With Alexa Chung day for Brits and animal print! Almost everyone on the show today either WAS British (Alexa Chung, Sienna Miller, the AMAZING La Roux. and Rick Edwards) wore animal print, OR BOTH -- -- Alexa Chung, Sienna Miller. Total outlier: Vanessa Hudgens, who looks like a mini Jennifer Lopez.

Okay, here's what Alexa Chung wore today!
Tuesday, August 4
+ Dress: Rebecca Taylor
+ Shoes: Juicy Couture
+ Necklace: J. Crew

This leopard-print Reko dress is really cute in a wild-granny-goes-back-to-school way. It's $80 at Topshop.

SUCH a hot animal print dress by Alexander Wang. It should remind you NOTHING of your grandmother, I hope. It's $524 at LuisaViaRoma.com.

And if I knew how to steal identities and had no morals and hijacked your credit cards, this Matthew Williamson dress would be the first thing I'd buy. It's $1150 at Net-a-porter.com.

+ More photos and Sienna Miller's pants after the jump!

HUGE Alexa Chung day today! Adam Sandler and Leslie Mann, the GLOWING and radiant Nelly Furtado -- watch her brand-new "Manos Al Aire" video here if you haven't yet -- a live Passion Pit performance, and Michelle Collins talking about nips! You can't BUY that kind of good, American entertainment with actual money. Anyway, here's what Alexa wore today.

Thursday, July 30
+ Sweater: J. Crew
+ Jeans: Topshop
+ Heels: Marni
+ Necklace: J. Crew

A great grey V-neck sweater is a wardrobe staple, but you know what also should be a wardrobe staple? This SWEET vampire-inspired grey Topshop sweater designed by German designer Markus Lupfer (Madonna and Gwen Stefani are fans). It's sooo delightfully Rocky Horror/ Twilight-meet-Rolling Stones, and it's $170 at Topshop.com.

And check out Forever 21's black Deco-inspired bib necklace. It's just $6.80, which is like less than one of those huge Jamba Juices.

I too would be raising a fist in fashion victory if I were wearing a Vena Cava dress and hanging out with Leighton Meester and Cobra Starship. Here's what Alexa Chung wore on today's episode of It's On With Alexa Chung.'
Thursday, June 25
+ Dress: Vena Cava.

+ Cardigan: Rebecca Taylor.

+ Shoes: Kathryn Amberleigh.

Get Alexa's gorgeous Vena Cava bustier "Papyrus" dress for $345 at Shopzoeonline.com.

Get a classic button-down peach cardigan like Alexa's from J. Crew for $178.

... And if you too were coveting Alexa's gorgeous black sling-back platforms with those amazing architectural wood cone heel, they can be yours for $230 at Kathryn Amberleigh.
