Life is a Story. Make yours a fairytale with Designer Lauren Elaine.
“When I used to read fairy tales, I fancied that kind of thing never happened, and now here I am in the middle of one!” – Alice Fairytales and fashion require imagination. And Wonderland is imagination running free. An evolving menagerie of eclectic, inspired pieces- Wonderland represents a whimsical take on ready-to-wear fashion. No rules,
Merry Christmas Eve! Today I’m sharing a full look at our holiday home decor for 2018 – we’ve added some new additions since last year (and some previously empty rooms now have furniture!) I love decorating for the holidays, and each year I hope to add something new – whether it’s a new themed tree,
Happy 4th of July!!! And happy birthday, America! To celebrate, we’re hosting our annual ‘Red, White, and Something Blue’ trunk show at our Los Angeles Flagship Salon all month long (July 7th – 31st!) Book your appointment to fit our newest styles (like our brand sparkling new “Euphoria” gown – see a sneak peek below!)
Nothing in the world compares to being in Love. And nothing makes me happier than celebrating that Love. I’m grateful to get to celebrate Love on a daily basis, and be a part of each bride’s love story as they plan their wedding. It’s an honor and a pleasure, and in February, it hits even
‘Tis the season to deck the halls! And this year, we’re celebrating our first Christmas in a new home, with a new puppy, and hosting family and friends for the Holidays — so I’ve gone all out! We’ve been living in a construction war zone since moving into Castle Vista earlier this year and tackling

In fact, I love them so much, almost all of our gowns can be made to feature a backless, or open back design element. That being said, when brides visit our Style House

Something old…something new…something borrowed…something red, white, and blue! The Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays. While I love exploring this great big world, I’m first and foremost…an American girl.

From huge affairs, to intimate elopements, and even courthouse nuptials — a wedding represents the start of a new life chapter. A new road to
“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods…” Nothing is more inspiring than Nature. I’ve lost hours to google, constantly on the hunt for interesting and inspiring photoshoot locations and scenery, and beautiful new places to discover. In February, I explored 5 national parks throughout California, ranging from prehistoric lakes to alpine forests. I kicked
