She teams them with&nbsp;simple flat loafers and keeps&nbsp;her top half covered up in three-quarter, boat-neck, tucked-in tees. That combo makes minis look smart. Team ditsy vintage prints with black or neutral pieces to keep all eyes on your statement skirt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>British IT girl Alexa Chung has a signature style that has been copied countless times around the globe.
