Beyond The Everygirl, Lauren has written for top outlets including Real Simple, SUCCESS, and BuzzFeed. She is also the voice behind Leisurely, a Substack newsletter all about living an unhurried, intentional life.
Whether she’s scouring the internet for the latest trends or writing about the products she’s tested and loved, Lauren brings a thoughtful, informed voice to every piece she writes. With a background in editorial and a passion for storytelling, she covers fashion, beauty, home, and lifestyle in a way that makes aspirational living feel approachable. She’s always on the lookout for what’s new, what’s worth it, and what makes everyday life a little more beautiful.
Lauren has over four years of experience in the digital media industry, but her love for all things editorial started long before that—she’s pretty sure it began the moment she got her hands on her first issue of Seventeen magazine.
After graduating from Texas A&M University in 2021 with a bachelor’s degree in Communication and a minor in English, she kicked off her editorial career at Texasliving magazine. She later went on to work as a content update editor for Southern Living, Real Simple, and Martha Stewart.
Today, Lauren is a full-time freelance writer dedicated to sharing her love and knowledge of all things fashion, beauty, home, and lifestyle with the world.
When she’s not writing, you can find Lauren thrifting for home decor, sipping a latte, binge-watching reality TV, or walking her long-haired dachshund, Butter, with her husband. She’s a firm believer that brunch is the best meal of the day and never leaves the house without her emotional support water bottle.
Whether she is searching for her dream job or a new city to call home; is saving for a down payment or a ticket to travel the world; is learning to cook or speak another language, she needs a bit of guidance, she wants to be inspired.
