Yay or Nay: Alexa Chung for Madewell


The Alexa Chung for Madewell debuted today online and I'm not sure how I feel about the collection. Obviously it was hyped up the shiz with Alexa Chung being the new "It" girl (disputable?) and to top it off having a great bag named after her. Back to the collection, some of the pieces I really enjoyed such as:


from top to bottom $168, $110, $128



But at the same time, don't much want to pay $100 for a pair of high waist shorts esp. since it's almost fall. Also, overalls? Those need to stay in the 90's. Not such a fan of:

each $125. photos via Madewell.com


Like J. Crew, it's sister company, Madewell relies heavily on styling to make a sale but can the pieces hold on their own and for the price? Any thoughts?

definitely disputable. some of the stuff is pretty nice (I like the velvet dress), but i ain't paying $125 for train-conductor-overalls we could make ourselves out of a potato sack.
