OSOYOU goes to the NME Awards

nme_awards_marina_diamonds_alexa_chung.jpgThe NME Awards were on last night at Brixton Academy, and OSOYOU was in attendance to check out all the winners and losers, and of course, what everyone was wearing.

There was a surprising lack of female celebrities on the red carpet last night (Fearne Cotton wasn't even there): Alexa Chung was there to present an award (we walked past her in the street outside looking very cheerful and wearing a long black coat) and wore a Christopher Kane 'galaxy theme' Resort 2011 Collection mini dress with Prada platforms.

Marina and the Diamonds was there too, also to present an award and wore the most showstopping dress of the night - a floor length white gown by Hasan Hejazi that made a big impact when she came billowing up to the podium. We also spotted Kate Moss dancing along to Crystal Castles with Jamie Hince (she was wearing a floor length leather dress).

To check out the winners from the night, continue reading past the cut!

Alexa Chung shows us round Williamsburg

Ever had a wonder about Alexa Chung's life? Well lucky you, because in this video the TV personality and style icon shows us around Brooklyn and shows us all the places where she hangs out and shops.

It's a pretty cool video - she describes her love for her neighbourhood, Williamsburg and conflicting love for London thus: "Williamsburg is sort of like my lover, whereas London is more like my husband. I love my husband, and I'll always be with him, but Williamsburg is so exciting."

Check it out above.

Alexa Chung teaches a little about thrift shopping

alexa-chung-plaid-dress.jpg

Or as we like to call it; rummaging around charity shops! Yes, Alexa Chung is launching a new TV series in the US called Thrift America, where she is filmed doing a lot of thrifting as she teaches Americans how to come across some amazing finds. Who knew scanning racks upon racks of granny jumpers and eighties tees could be put down to such a fine talent?


In fact, we think the series creator summed it up best when she said: "What does Alexa Chung pull out of the crap bin at the yard sale?" And isn't that the question on everyone's lips...


Throughout the show Alexa will be offering up style tips while visiting the likes of Los Angeles, Detroit, Nashville, Paris and... wait for it... LONDON. So you do remember us, Miss Chung?


See, as we pointed out, the show is only to be aired on US channel, PBS. However, we've got our thrifty fingers crossed that it'll make a leap across the pond and find its way to our television very soon. Please?!

Alexa Chung tops Teen Vogue's best dressed celebs


alexachung-trench.jpg
Teen Vogue has just announced their best dressed celebrities of 2010. Unsurprisingly fashion's girl crush Alexa Chung has taken the top spot at number one.

More surprisingly however is Emma Roberts who strikes her pose at number two, in at three is the fabulously quirky Carey Mulligan, Kate Bosworth is in at four, whilst Glee's Lea Michele takes the fifth spot.

It is quite an extraordinary chart, Sienna Miller is at 50, with Keira Knightley at 20 and Emma Watson at 16, we're a little shocked to see these gorgeous girls being so far down. Who would be your best dressed celebrity?

OSOYOU meets face of Lacoste Alexa Chung

alexa_chung_steph_powell_zara_rabinowitz_lacoste.jpgWe told you a while ago that Alexa Chung is the face of Lacoste's new Touch of Pink fragrance, and last week OSOYOU went to the press launch to have a sniff.

While we were there we had a chat with Alexa herself who was looking her usual stylish self in leather shorts and a nude blouse, and posed for a photo... which in hindsight may have been a mistake.

Alexa Chung and the Problem of Free Stuff

alexa_chung_cdfa.jpgAlexa Chung has a hard life. She's always getting free stuff.

She explained to Elle magazine, "I get sent a fair amount of stuff - but it's not all things that I'd have chosen. It makes you question your own taste sometimes. Do I even like this?"

Alexa gets so much stuff, she can't even fit it in her house... sob: "My house is tiny and I can't fit things in. So if my mum or my friends don't want it, I send it back or give it to a charity shop."

"It's worrying to think how much those things are worth. When you get it for free it's like, 'Oh, this thing,' and then you see it in a magazine and f**king hell, it's £2,000! Meanwhile you've been scrabbling around in festival mud in it."

Oh Alexa.

Alexa Chung thinks she dresses like a granny

alexa_chung_cdfa.jpgAlexa Chung has been talking about her style, saying that she only takes 20 minutes to get ready in the morning because she just puts on "trousers and whatever I've been wearing in bed".

But of course that would be the case if when you got to work you were re-styled and made up for TV.

Alexa said of her style, "I guess my look is generally quite preppy. Schoolgirl meets grandma and a skanky older brother!"

She added, "Fashion changes so fast. I like classic things - blazers, cable-knit jumpers and preppy college scarves. I'm a stud kind of girl, and I love leopard-print. But not fur. I don't wear fur."

Asked what it is like to be a style icon, she replied: "If you're in the middle of something, it's difficult to see it clearly. I don't have any idea of what I look like from the outside."
