On a walk in central London, Alexa Chung reaffirmed why she’ll forever be a style icon in my eyes. Styling a low-key, London-girl look, Chung masterfully balanced several growing trends as well as one once forgotten one.
Swapping her favourite leather trench coat for a sleek, slightly oversized leather jacket, Chung opted for a tried-and-true leather and denim pairing for her timeless city ensemble. For an unexpected touch, the model and presenter reached for classic black brogues to complete her outfit. Whilst we were distracted by the rise of loafers this year (and last!) the humble brogue has been sitting untouched this season, waiting for its time in the sun to come around again. Now, after Chung’s chic revival, we expect to see them cropping up across the city adding polish to casual looks, and smartening up the laid-back denim outfits of city-dwellers throughout the winter months.
For a flush of colour, Chung paired her simple look with a vibrant red scarf, tapping into another growing trend, whilst incorporating a layer of texture into her winter-ready look. Chung’s brogue pairing kept her trend-driven outfit looking grounded, timeless, and polished. For its unparalleled ability to smarten up a casual look, we predict that the simple black brogue is right on track to take over as the shoe of the season this winter. Read on to shop Chung’s look here, and well as our favourite brogue shoes below.
