He's come a long way since shooting to stardom as the confident frontman of a Sheffield band.

And Arctic Monkeys' Alex Turner certainly looked like rock royalty as he stepped out arm-in-arm with his head-turning girlfriend Taylor Bagley in LA on Thursday.

The chart-topper, 29, was spotted leaving the city's airport, LAX, where he'd just jetted in with minimal luggage - and, clearly, was delighted to be back in California.

In good company: Alex Turner was certainly living the LA dream as he stepped out arm-in-arm with a his dynamic girlfriend Taylor on Thursday afternoon

The sharp-suited star oozed rock-n-roll in his choice of attire, which included a monochrome shirt, skinny black jeans and a light grey jacket.

Wearing a pair of leather walking boots, he clearly had a spring in his step with one arm around his hard-to-miss partner and the other carrying his guitar.

With his longer hair falling on his face, he was the epitome of indie cool.

Meanwhile, his new romantic interest wasn't any less impressive.

Sporting a pair of skin-tight leather hotpants with knee-high leather boots, Taylor wasn't shy about flashing the flesh - as she proved by wearing a white shirt unbuttoned down to her chest and up to her navel.

Unsurprisingly, her most striking characteristic was her bright pink hair, which appeared to be almost fluorescent in the West Coast sun.

Dapper: Originally from Sheffield, Alex has lived in LA for several years and is part of the music scene there

Striding through the arrivals terminal with confidence, the pair commanded attention and deftly turned heads as they landed in style.

And, of course, the LA scene is a far cry away from his Yorkshire roots - although Alex will be accustomed to that by now because he has been based in LA for several years.

There, he plays various gigs across Hollywood when not touring the world with his bandmates.

Ironically, the sighting comes as Alex's former flame, Alexa Chung, finally confirmed her romance with actor Alexander Skarsgard.

The 31-year-old model was spotted holding hands with the 28-year-old actor in a park in New York recently following weeks of rumours.

The True Blood star and UK TV presenter were spotted on a romantic date in Prospect Park and Botanical Gardens, last Friday. They were seen getting cosy together under a tree and took photos of one another around the grounds.

'They were eating avocado toast and rubbing each other's lower backs. No one knows they are dating yet except ME and now you. I just feel like I have to tell you bc Brian Williams never will. Okay signing off now. Go tell ten people or you'll have bad luck forever.'

She also took a sneaky snap of the pair hunched over their food and huddled together as they gazed out at the NYC sidewalk.
