Hey there fellow babes, let me introduce myself. I am Cindy, Lauren’s truest fan and loudest cheerleader. You see, I am Lauren’s mom and I know her SO well. I can’t wait to share her and her true gift with all off you. Babes, please hang in there till the very end of my story because YOU are what created Lolo Poppin.
Enough said, let me tell you about Lauren. Lauren as a toddler starting showing signs of perfection early on. For instance, she would get a small spot on her clothes and go get her step stool immediately and wash out the spot. Did I mention she was a toddler?
I also love to share the story of her and her Barbie mansion, Lauren would have it set up to perfection with her Barbie’s in their most imaginative outfits. Lauren’s Barbie world was magical, and you could not help but be drawn in.
So now I bet you’d love to know how Lolo got her name. Lauren’s cheerleading friends dubbed her “Lolo” early on, they always looked up to her for her style and flare. “Poppin” is just who Lolo is, she walks into a room with her bubbly personality and gets the room POPPIN!
At Lauren’s highschool graduation party I overheard her telling her girlfriends she never wore the same outfit twice. You see, Lauren really knew how to shop her favorite stores starting in the reduced section then building her wardrobe up from there with quality seasonal pieces. Oh, and how she could accessorize!
Lauren knew what she wanted … she knew it would take hard work and dedication to achieve her goals. Lauren being so passionate about clothes it was natural for her to seek out a career in fashion.
Well … life had other plans for her. She gracefully put aside her dreams to save a life. Lauren’s then boyfriend was diagnosed with Leukemia, how could one leave and go to New York for fashion and leave behind her obligation to heal Joefish? Lauren’s career in nursing was born. Healing Joefish and caring for others has taught her compassion. However, Laurens passion for fashion is what really lights her up.
Lauren uses that passion to up-style each and every one of you. How lucky we are to have her impeccable taste and graceful style to follow and take on as our own!
I myself have been purchasing from Lauren’s suggestions, I can say I feel so sophisticated when I am out and about. Her guidance has saved me money and time. My confidence is soaring and I am more aware of my personal growth in my physical health, my home life, and definitely in my closet!
Lauren has done all the hard work for me. There is something to be said about the way I have evolved and I look forward to seeing what Lolo Poppin has to offer us next. When Lauren is not showing off her most recent coveted clothing you can most often find her enjoying the company of her husband Bill and kitty cat named Luna!
Lolo Poppin is a lifestyle that you can achieve and she will have you babes feeling as confident as I do! Join us for exclusive fashion content and watch for our upcoming V.I.P. parties and giveaways … you’ve officially been invited!
What I do
Fashion Blogger
Chicago suburbanite fashion blogger up styling looks by pairing affordable everyday finds with investable luxury pieces. Incorporating both budget friendly items with elements of elegance creates the look of luxury fashion. While sharing my twist on today’s current styles and trends I aim to inspire creativity within the everyday woman! For me, it is so rewarding to see a woman step out in a look they feel great in!
Environmental Enthusiast
To be swimming in the ocean and peer up at the water above you thinking you are seeing the ocean glitter, only to realize it is microplastics floating in the very spot I have considered paradise my entire life. This experience among others has given me the voice to educate and encourage others that making small changes such as asking for paper bags at the grocery store or limiting the use of single use plastic can have a dramatic impact on environmental pollution.
Registered Nurse
My nursing career was unpredicted but stemmed from a place of love. Going on over five years working as a nurse in both critical care and procedural settings I have grown an immense passion in being the advocate for others. Especially in recent months, what it takes to be a nurse can feel insurmountable. This feeling is what pushed me to look for an outlet where I could express myself through creativity, that outlet was naturally discovered in blogging.
