Denim overalls have suddenly made a comeback this season, and one of the style icons who have spearheaded this trend is Alexa Chung.

The 29-year-old English television and fashion personality rocked dark blue denim overalls, or dungarees as they call it there, as she made her way to The Dorchester Hotel in London just last Monday.

Not related to Jamie Chung, she looked comfortable and chic with her denim overalls, which she paired with a white tee, a Louis Vuitton satchel, mirrored sunglasses, and cap-toe ballet flats.

Perhaps it’s her natural swag and style, but this pair of denim overalls does seem very appealing. Don’t you think so?

However, not all of us have Alexa’s natural ability to carry an outfit no matter how ridiculous it looks. So, we’re wondering if you can actually see yourself pulling off these loose denim overalls.

Just like Alexa, you can wear a basic white tee underneath a pair of overalls if you want to be safe. If you’re feeling a bit daring, then go for cropped and printed tops instead.

You can also play with shoe styles to complete your look. For example, you can complete the outfit with a pair of ankle booties for more edge, flat sandals for that laid-back feel, or high heels for that sexy and chic look.
