English electro-pop sensations La Roux have been creating dance hits since 2008, when they released their self-titled debut album. Often mistaken for a solo act, La Roux is actually a duo, made up of lead singer Elly Jackson and keyboardist Ben Langmaid. Elly Jackson’s distinct?androgynous?style?inspired the band name, which is a mix of the male and female versions of “red?hair” in?French.
Even if you aren’t ready to test out Elly’s signature cropped coif just yet, keep reading for ways to add some of her tomboy flair to your outfit!
Outfit 1: “Fascination”

Elly is often spotted wearing this neo-cameo necklace, and I was lucky enough to find the same exact one for you guys! While wearing this signature necklace, she likes to?create outfits that have vintage style with a futuristic edge, all while keeping an air of fun and mystery about her. Try layering leggings, a patterned romper, and cropped tee with a bowler hat and tough boots in addition to the cameo necklace for a rockstar-cool look.

In keeping with her androgynous style, Elly relies on menswear-inspired staples like blazers and oxfords to jazz up her outfits. Little details like studs, metallic stripes, and gold accents help her stand out from the crowd. To get a similar look, take a basic black blazer-and-pants combo and add a fun printed shirt, oxfords, and gold jewelry.

One of the most important themes behind La Roux’s music- and Jackson’s fashion sense- is fearlessness! Elly always mixes crazy prints together, but manages to pull it off with confidence. Let your creativity shine through with a colorful ensemble like the one below- just keep prints in the same color family, or balance out a large, bold print with a smaller one. Add pops of color with bright accessories and some retro high-top sneakers.
