As if inspiring Mulberry’s latest-must have bag and having it named after you wasn’t enough, super cool fashionista of the moment, Alexa Chung can now add Pepe Jeans London to her list of style credentials.

Yes that’s right, the TV presenter/ Model / Global style icon has teamed up with Pepe Jeans to be the face of their new SS’10 campaign. In typical Alexa style, the images (shot by Tom Munro and styled by Alexa herself along with Patti Wilson) are very laid back and relaxed featuring denims styled with cute tees and cropped biker style jackets.

Alexa’s ascent into style Royalty is set to continue with reports that she is to design her first ever collection in a collaboration with US clothing brand Madewell. The fruits of her labour will be available this September and will be sold under the label Alexa Chung for Madewell

Over the weekend I popped my head into the Pepe London store on Dublin’s Exchequer street. It’s been a while since I’ve been in and I always find it’s one of those stores where I either want to buy the entire contents of the shop (yes, both men & womenswear!) or I leave yearning for something else completely.

On this occasion I was more taken by their new campaign for AW09 which sees the introduction of Madonna’s current love interest Jesus Luz (it’s very clear what she see’s in him, check out more of luscious Luz below!). The shots follow a group of young city bohemians in an autumnal setting – very eye catching indeed.

Leather is back with a bang this season and unlike in the past, leather this year is super fine and soft like butter making it easy to wear and ideal for layering.

Celebrities have embraced leather with open arms and here’s a few stars who really rock the look. The key to this trend – wear only one piece of leather in any outfit (jacket, trousers…) and mix with other fabrics.

Megan Fox looks stunning in this Stella McCartney leopard motif t-shirt, black cropped leather jacket, cropped black trousers and amazing purple heels.

Fans of London fashion label, Religion, can prepare to unleash their inner femme fatale, as it flies into Autumn Winter 09 with a wonderfully macabre collection full of bodycon and draped dresses, leopard print ripped skinny jeans and bustling jackets.

This season Religion fuses intricate Victorian references alongside its signature rocker style. Gauze chiffons, sheer satins, oversized rayon knits and flowing silks in a colour palette of midnight greys, icy blues and deep blood reds set the theme.

As ever, Religion applies a sharp eye to detailing. I think the leather jackets are awesome and the most interesting I’ve seen this season. In particular those adorned with sharp brass pyramid studs across the lapels, giving hard-hitting edge to quite feminine pieces (see below).

This season sees Religion introduce a 30 piece woven collection, ranging from poly-wool coats and woollen dresses, to tailored waistcoats and blazers.
