Alexa's A* Hair & Beauty Looks
The beauty of Alexa Chung knows no bounds. From her days as a cute newcomer on our tellybox to the front-row style star that she is today, let's review the pictorial evidence of her evolution.

On the cusp of greatness, Alexa, then just 20, takes her first ginger steps on the LFW stage sporting long, poker straight locks and a good dose of black liquid eyeliner. No other make-up required.

Fast forward a year later and Alexa's hair is shorter and lighter and did we mention how awesome her natural beauty is?

Just a few short months later, Alexa's taking her hair to new heights in a halo braid. Make-up remains the enemy. When you look this good, why bother?

The fringe is blunter, the hair streaked with subtle highlights and an inkling of make-up is starting to creep into the beauty book of Le Chung (clear gloss and a light dusting of shadow). Subtle and utterly stunning.

A couple of months later, Alexa's hair has a retro feel to it, bluntly cut and flicked out at the ends. The smoky shadow, liner and striped top add to the overall chic French vibe.

When you're off-duty and not in the mood to use every product in your make-up bag, make like Alexa and kept it simple. A slick of liner, a nude lip and a bed-head mane of tresses. Job done.
Rex FeaturesJune 2009
For the GLAMOUR Awards in 2009 Alexa brings an icy beauty vibe in the form of a frosted pink lip and a two-tone hairstyle.
Rex FeaturesSeptember 2009
A dewy base and an effortless looking up-do is all Alexa needs to shine.

The same month, the same vibe, only slightly heavier on the make-up application, particularly around the eyes. It's the perfect complement to her honey-hued locks.
Rex FeaturesOctober 2009
This shot just screams 'skin'. Aside from a little glitter and liner on the eyes, this look is all about Alexa's natural sex appeal.

Drama! Dark lips, dark eyes, tousled hair. This has 'the lady is a vamp' written all over it.
Rex FeaturesJune 2010
But it didn't stick. One month on and Alexa's back to basics. Pastel hues and a curl in her hair make for an overall girly aesthetic.
Rex FeaturesJune 2010
Later that month, she adds in a dose of retro beauty thanks to her winged eyeliner. Her ombre locks are her nod to a beauty trend of the present day.
Rex FeaturesSeptember 2010
Dialling into the nonchalant French beauty vibe that she's so fond of, Alexa keeps it simple with a sweep of pink blush and matching frosted lipstick, perfectly complementing her light pink coat.
Rex FeaturesSeptember 2010
Another day, another nod to a bygone era beauty. We love this verging-on-dishevelled styling.
Rex FeaturesSeptember 2010
Girly and sweet, Alexa can afford to shun the beauty products when the notion takes her... Although she's less keen to part with the liner.
Rex FeaturesSeptember 2011
September 2011 (fashion month, don't you know?) heralds something of a more ambitious Alexa. The long and loose bob and glossy pout is very Sofia Coppola.
Rex FeaturesNovember 2011
We're seriously digging this shaggy long bob. Cut out and keep for your next visit to the hairdressers.
Rex FeaturesFebruary 2012
Ditto for this undone curled style.
Rex FeaturesMay 2012
For the Met Gala in 2012, Alexa yet again nods to the old school with an updo injected with volume and carefully undone lengths. Her de riguer liner and frosted lip also make a return.
Rex FeaturesSeptember 2012
A glossy red lip is the corner stone of this look in September 2012. It works perfectly with the sexiness of her strapless velvet LBD.
Rex FeaturesNovember 2012
Darker waxy reddish tresses and a deep raspberry pout bring extra gloss to her CFDA Awards look.
Rex FeaturesFebruary 2013
A new year calls for a fresh approach - step forward the choppy ponytail.
Rex FeaturesJune 2013
Alexa does her best English rose impression - we're convinced.
Rex FeaturesOctober 2013
Shiny raven locks pulled up into a loose bun and a shiny pink pout are a match made in beauty heaven.
Rex FeaturesOctober 2013
Perhaps one of our favourite looks to date from Ms Chung. A hot, tomato red matte pout and a glossy side-parted down 'do. Another one to cut out and keep.
Rex FeaturesDecember 2013
In a similar vein to her last look, we're head over heels for this old fashioned winner.
Rex FeaturesJune 2014
For this year's GLAMOUR Awards, Alexa goes for a bronzed and beautiful aesthetic. The chestnut locks, the matte peach lipstick - everything about this look is incredible.

For a day out at the polo, Alexa lets her hair do its natural thing and adds a mere slick of tomato lipstick to round things off.
Rex FeaturesAugust 2014
We did a double take when Alexa appeared before our eyes with this honey-hued stle in August with a choppy, blunt-cut fringe. But, as with everything she tries, it just works.
Rex FeaturesNovember 2014
Alexa’s peek-a-boo fringe and mid-length glossy curls look great with a touch of copper smoke around the eyes and a hint of sugar-pink on the lips.
Rex FeaturesNovember 2014
For a Nails inc store appearance, Alexa Chung made sure all eyes were on her with a striking hair and beauty combination. Steel grey shadow, a subtle pink pout and super cute plaits were the order of the day - and it's flawless.

Alexa switched up her look by cutting her hair into a long bob and styling it with some relaxed waves in 2015.
