Getting My Protein

I tried Naked Nutrition protein oats and I may actually be able to reach my protein goals! I’m at the age where I need to step up my nutrition routine. Eating “mostly healthy” isn’t cutting it anymore, and with little kids and a busy life, I don’t have time to prepare gourmet meals that cater to everyone’s nutritional needs and preferences, so I am thrilled to have found a supplement that is not only delicious and easy, but will help me get to my recommended amount of daily protein.

Favorite Pre-made Bath Vanities

My official stance on pre-made vanities is that they are fabulous! There are many beautiful options in any style and size imaginable. If you opt for a pre-made vanity, you’ll probably have a bigger budget to spend on great lighting or a show stopping backsplash tile.

Hello July

July feels like the most care-free month, doesn’t it? It starts with a holiday, probably my favorite holiday! We always travel to Port Austin, a little tourist town on Lake Huron. My family has a house there, just a short walk from the lake. It’s a place that has so many core memories and nostalgia tied to it, but also a place that I can actually relax.

Italian Vow Renewal

It was my dream to return to Cinque Terre, a place we fell in love with on our Italian Honeymoon back in 2012, to renew our vows. I wanted to bring our whole family on an Italian adventure to celebrate this milestone. We booked Luca Vieri to photograph the celebration. My boys walked me down the aisle carrying bouquet I clip from the side of the road. My husband and I shared heartfelt notes to each outer, over looking the sea, before heading down to Monterosso Al Mare for photos and dinner. The day was truly magical!

Lauren Koster Creative Branding Refresh

I am so excited to share the next evolution of my brand! It has been 7 years since Kristen Poissant created my lovely logo and branding package. Today, I feel like my business is starting to shift and I wanted the brand to align with what I feel is the future. I am more grown up and in a completely different place in my life and my business than I was at LKC’s inception. This brand direction feels that too.
