Boss Ladies | Lauren Scruggs

Lauren and I are both from Dallas and grew up at the same church, but our paths didn’t cross until years later when we were both chasing some dreams in the fashion world. We had a phone date when I lived in LA, and instantly I knew this girl was a soul sister. Since then we’ve laughed together, cried together, worked together, talked about boys, been fashion week cohorts, prayer buddies, and even danced to Beyonce.

Lauren is the real deal. She is bright, genuine, and full of life, and I’m so honored that I get to call her a friend.

XO,

Kat

How I got started

I have a very entrepreneurial spirit, and I love finding ways to encompass all of my passions. That is what led me to starting LOLO Magazine, The Lauren Scruggs Kennedy Foundation, and an in-the-works product that is landing soon! I am also such a believer in sharing your story and life experience, so authoring books has been such an enjoyable and deepening enterprise.

The dumbest thing I ever did when I was starting out was

Not saying no enough! I always kept in mind, though, that starting something new is such a trial/error experience, so even the fails helped me learn how to do my job better!

If I was an emoji I would be the

The Laughing guy.

My last meal on earth would be

The sushi rolls, Mediterranean salad, and fudge sundae from R&D Kitchen in Dallas.

I can’t stand when other people

Are late.

Are you more like your mom or dad?

My dad, but my mom and I are besties!

Growing up I really wanted to be

A vet because I love any animal, especially mini ones.
