Blonde Behind the Blog


Hello! I’m Kelssey Layton– the blonde behind the blog! Currently, I am located in San Diego, California but have previously lived in many states [Virginia, Missouri, Oklahoma & Kansas] & move often as a military family! In addition to being a fashion blogger and writing Styled Blonde, I’m proudly a Marine wife, mom, high school History teacher & cheer coach. Things that make me swoon are classic staples, bold accessories, and the occasional print mix.

Styled Blonde was first established in Fall of 2014. Getting its start from Instagram where I’ve been sharing daily outfit posts for years, Styled Blonde was the perfect place to share more detailed style inspiration! It was created out of a passion for putting together outfits where fashionable meets functional and trendy meets affordable. Styled Blonde is designed to be a go-to for finding the latest fashion trends, personal style tips, and current sale alerts. The goal is to showcase how to put together an outfit for every occasion using your favorite closet staples mixed with fun, new pieces you’ve recently added! I hope my posts can inspire you to try something new, mix up your most worn pieces, or try a fun trend!

In addition to style posts, you will occasionally see pictures of my husband Jake! He takes most of the photos for Styled Blonde. We got married in June of 2010 & I love falling for him more every day! You will also catch a few sweet pictures of Beckam! He was born [7 weeks premature] in April of 2016. As a family we love to be outdoors, travel & take advantage of all the adventures life has to offer!
