Mini Muse: A Life Styled With Intention

Laura’s personal style is a thoughtful blend of archival, feminine, timeless, and entirely her own. Rather than following trends, she believes in curating a wardrobe and home filled only with pieces she truly loves, items that bring joy and meaning. Vintage and secondhand finds hold a special place in her world. It is the hunt, the history, and the story behind each piece that makes it feel so personal and special.

Right now, the most grounding moments in Laura’s life come from the rituals she shares with her family. As she and her husband prepare to welcome their second child in early February, evenings with their son Leo have taken on an especially tender significance. Knowing their family of three is about to grow, they are savoring every moment together. Make-believe play in Leo’s nursery, bath time filled with song, and cozy cuddles over bedtime stories have become sacred parts of their day, grounding them in gratitude and presence.

A beautiful, well-lived day for Laura is rooted in balance. She finds deep fulfillment in nurturing both her creative career and her role as a mother, and she values building a rhythm that honors both. While working full time and parenting is not always easy, she takes pride in the example she is setting. Loving what you do, she believes, is a dream worth going for and one she hopes to pass on to her children.

Food and gathering are central to their family life. Laura’s husband, Shane, is an incredible cook, and their home is often filled with inspired meals made with care. Hosting dinner parties and sharing his talents with friends and family brings them so much joy. Watching Leo delight in his dad’s cooking has become one of life’s simplest and sweetest pleasures.

As for downtime, Laura and Shane once made a tradition of celebrating awards season, especially the Oscars. These days, family entertainment looks a little different. Evenings are now spent reading picture books and board books together, leaning into imagination, connection, and the quiet magic of this season of life.
