Fashion Icon: Alexa Chung

Alexa Chung, became all the rage in the fashion world for her quirky and menswear-inspired fashion choices, earning her fashion icon status and her own Mulberry bag named the 'Alexa' back in 2009. Described as the "Kate Moss of our generation" by the New York Times, Alexa was born in England and started her career in the fashion world as a model, appearing in both magazines and music videos. 

After her short stint at modelling, the blazer-loving beauty decided to study journalism. Alexa has co-hosted numerous TV shows, such as T4's "Frock Me", NBC's "2011 Golden Globe Arrivals Special", MTV's and " It's On with Alexa Chung" among others. 

The staples of her wardrobe seem to be tailored blazers, striped pieces, oxford shoes, girly flowered dresses, small stachel bags, long cardigans and boyfriend sweaters.

Fashion Icon: Giovanna Battaglia

Photographed innumerable times by the likes of Scott Schuman, Garance Dore, and many other renowned streetsyle photographers, Giovanna Battaglia has become the latest fashion icon thanks to her impeccable and sophisticated fashion sense. 

The Italian fashion icon used to model for D&G and is currentlt the Editor of L'Uomo Vogue and a freelance stylist. Giovanna exudes femininity with every outfit that she wears. We have yet to see a photo of Giovanna wearing jeans and sneakers, and it is safe to say that the word casual doesn't exist in her world.

The staples of her wardrobe seem to be ladylike dresses, pencil skirts, layer skirts, ruffled blouses, statement necklaces, tailored trousers, kitten heels, small or medium sized structured handbags and oversized round sunglasses. Instead of blindly following the runway trends like many models and celebrities so often do, Giovanna stays true to her style with elegance and class, setting herself apart from the rest of the fashion editors.

This Victoria's Secret Angel is not only the latest bombshell to appear in the new Transformers sequel, alongside Shia LaBeouf, but she has also become the latest 'It Girl' and fashion icon.

The British beauty is constantly being photographed by papparazzis, and thanks to her impeccable casual-chic style that incorporates boho and rocker elements, her pictures are splattered all over the fashion blogosphere. The model is often seen alongside her boyfriend actor Jason Statham.

Due to her new status as a fashion icon, Rosie is now being called 'the next Kate Moss', which is why we decided to post a roundup of her best outfits to date and let you guys decide for yourselves:
