Even if you get the same chin-length mop top; stock your closet with exclusively A.P.C., Chanel, and vintage; and, practice that gamine, caught-off-guard pose, Alexa Chung is still going to look better — but even the street-style star acknowledges that her aesthetic isn't entire original.

I've been dragging my ass around castings for years without anyone saying [I had] unique style. I've really just been ripping off Jane Birkin. Sorry, has no one else seen a picture of Françoise Hardy? Look it up. I'm just the middle man."
