WELCOME to my very first STYLE POST. HORRAY! Over the last few months my friends in the blogosphere have been begging me to start doing some of these, so here’s my first go. AG will always and forever remain a lifestyle blog, but since fashion is a part of life, and I love it, I hope you’ll enjoy these additions, however often I get around to doing them.

First, off, if you haven’t noticed from earlier photos, I got a haircut. It was not at all planned and I was inspired by my new favorite go-to hairdresser in London, Mathieu Clabaux. After the chop, I asked Mathieu to take a crack at the blonde, and he literally nailed my Southern Californian color like no one in London has ever done. Converted.

Moving on to the clothes… I, like a lot of you girls recently, have been living in my leather leggings. They are great with flats or boots for the day, and are a fab alternative to a dress for nights out when worn with heels. I grabbed these guys at Zara, but there are a lot of  real and faux leather options available online, you can see some below in the “Shop the Look” bit.

Don’t kill me for wearing fur, but this leopard coat is vintage, and I got it for a birthday years ago at The Shop at Bluebird when they were having a pop-up vintage sale. I just found it in my winter coat closet, and re-fell in love with it when I put it on. It also helps that it is SUPER warm. There are also a lot of reasonably priced faux options out there if you want to recreate the look.

The red Chanel flats and Celine trio are a nice little pop of color, and perfect when it’s not raining, since the trio clearly does not fit an umbrella. So basically, this outfit is great for lunches, day time events, and just running around town really…

Would love to hear your comments on whether the style blogging thing is something you girls would like to see more of, or not at all, so please do comment below or on my instagram @AGinChelsea.
