I don't think love should make you feel uneasy. When you feel sick, I don't think that's love - that's infatuation.
— Alexa Chung
I have never lived in a time when people haven't told me what I look like.
A roll-neck and some flat shoes is about as good as it gets.
Fashion's a huge part of my life, but I don't necessarily feel comfortable always talking about clothes on my personal social media.
I'm indie through and through. I've always gone out with boys in bands.
Everyone I've ever fallen in love with, I just fell in love with! I didn't date them to try.
I don't want to say, 'Yeah, I changed at 30,' because no, it was chronically the same. But I got more relaxed about things.
Everything doesn't have to be perfect, I've realised. You can learn as you go.
I only ever involve myself with brands I truly adore.
I respect people that find writing easy, because I have focus problems. I'll spend five days eating cereal and YouTubing and two hours writing the article.
I used to have a voice because I was interviewing people and writing, but as soon as I got swept up in the fashion world, I was just a pretty girl at a party wearing a pretty dress.
I did TV for a bit, and somewhere along the line, I started writing a column for 'The Independent' newspaper in England, and now I write features for 'British Vogue.'
Dark lipstick on me is both a risk and a disaster.
I feel like it's weird to list all my crap qualities.
I spend most of my money in Prada or plane tickets.
I don't like when people seem to put every single thing on and just walk up and down outside waiting to be photographed. I think that's a bit lame.
My best party friend...? Fifi Brown. And Poppy Delevingne. She's so fun and so inclusive - she really is the glue.
I grew up in a very visual household. My dad is a designer; my sister is a designer. My brother is an amazing architect who does music. But I think in the Chung household, how things looked was an important part of who you are.
If I know something's expected of me, I won't wear it or do it. It just seems boring.
I feel uncomfortable in anything tight or body-con.
I love Gap for affordable men's sweaters.
I love the '60s and sort of wish all design had stopped in 1967. That would be my dream. They were really just nailing it - everyone looked great - but then it started getting a bit slippery after that.
People comment on my voice. They always ask me if I'm ill.
My art teacher told me I'd be suited to graphic design, but I just couldn't, because it was what my dad had done.
I always write 'Magic Potion' on my perfume bottles so when I use them, it feels magical - I make spells in the morning when I put them on.
You know you've become a brat when you have a room you like at the Bristol in Paris.
Every day, I think of designs, but I don't write them down, and I forget. If only I had an office.
When I'm wearing makeup, I choose between doing my eyes or mouth because I don't want to look like a beauty pageant child.
I grew up in a miniature village in the middle of the countryside in England, quite secluded from the outside world. I was always enamored by the fashion industry.
I'm bad at trends. Just wear what you want and what suits you.
I'm always hairy. I swear too much.
I've been learning French a bit through my work with Longchamp, and I've been in France quite a lot. And I really love how they express themselves. I especially love when something is untranslatable.
It's a weird day and age when you can tire of icons simply by overexposure.
I'm in love with lots of different things. I do love love, though. I don't think love should make you feel uneasy. When you feel sick, I don't think that's love - that's infatuation. Someone who makes you feel like that is exciting - it's the one that you imagine when you think of an amazing affair - but that's not actually a stable love.
Being British, I don't want to be all paranoid and arrogant and think people are looking at me because, really, I'm nothing.
I'm just really good at dressing my body's proportions.
When I used to work in television, a tip was rather than looking down the barrel of the camera and imagine people watching, which is terrifying, imagine your most discerning friend observing you, and imagine you're just talking to them.
I admire American women because they are really good at putting a look together that is sophisticated. As British girls, we lean toward being a bit more messy, a bit more undone, and maybe a little more eccentric.
No experience exists unless it's a shared one.
My image has swallowed me up! I've given so much out to this projected version of myself, but now I have to live up to this character that I don't even associate half the time.
For my art GCSE, I did a screen print of the Queen's head that was basically an Andy Warhol rip-off, but I didn't realise.
My brain is a big cluster of stuff. It moves quickly and loses focus quickly, so I need many projects to keep me stimulated - it's a luxury to be able to do lots of different things: style, write, present, DJ or just consult. It can't be any other way; I think I would shrivel up and fall asleep forever.
I'd say I have more shoes than anything else; they're a good way to update a look. Bags and shoes - it's like decorating a cake.
People want an easy sound bite.
It was once people began taking my picture every time I left the house - because it's an easy fashion shot - that I started getting a bit weirder about going out without any makeup on, and I think that's when I started wearing foundation every day.
If it's comfy, it probably doesn't look good.
London street style is the best in the world. Fact.
I really like action movies. The 'Die Hard' franchise. And the 'Bourne' movies.
I love Simone Rocha. I just think she's really clever.
I don't think I extend my hatred to other people's outfits.
