Alexa Chung, renowned for her impeccable taste in fashion, has been completely wowing us with her luxe effortlessly cool style code for years and this summer is no different.

Whether it's to attend a garden party, attend Wimbledon or try out balletcore chic, the 39-year-old is constantly putting her own twist on classic looks.

While not all of her pieces are totally affordable, Zara have released a £29.99 dress which we think would be right up her street based on her recent holiday looks. In Italy she has been experimenting with classic feminine pieces including a sheer black midi dress with nude ballet flats, a look Audrey Hepburn would most certainly approve of. She also wore a black ruffled mini dress with strappy black ballet flats. The easiest outfit, the perfect combination.
