Meet: Laura Lees Rasmussen

interview by kobi facto

She’s the blonde bestie, the social butterfly, the fashionista, the party starter – she is @the_stylist_trade_

Hailing from across the ditch, Laura Lees Rasmuseen is our latest muse -so we sit down to see how she rolls:

KF: Three words that best describe you?
LLR: Personable, opportunist and positive

KF: When did your passion for fashion begin?
LLR: My love for fashion started at the young age of 10. My mother and nanny first influenced me. They always dressed well and were creative with the clothes and accessories they had to work with. I would find myself in their closets every weekend dressing up and creating different outfits.

KF: Current wardrobe favourites?
LLR:
Black leather jack or black blazer
A good pair of timeless sunglasses
A soft grey t-shirt
Jean shorts
Quality ankle boots brown or black

KF: Most memorable vacay?
LLR: Greek Island’s last year. The food, the feeling, the water and the easy lifestyle. It totally lives up to the travel photos you see!

KF: Go-to healthy snack?
LLR: Sashimi or a green smoothie

KF: Favourite dinner?
LLR: Old school Sunday Roast with family or close friends…Or Japanese.

KF: Workout routine?
LLR: A walk up Burleigh Headland mixed with a swim. I love being outdoors and meeting up with friends – that way exercise doesn’t feel like a drag.

KF: Skincare smarts?
LLR:
EFA’s from DMK – these are essential fatty acids which help to make both your skin and insides glow!
MAC Play Mascara
Too Faced Beach Bunny Bronzer
An organic two-hour tan

KF: Local hot spots?
LLR: Rick Shores for sure. Other local hot spots of mine include The Collective and the new Wilderness Rooftop!

KF: Insta-Stalking?
LLR: I love @elle_ferguson. She’s casual which relates to my lifestyle on the Gold Coast. She’s always on trend and I feel like every week she brings a new piece of clothing into her Insta feed which helps my outfit inspiration (without costing a fortune). I also stalk Angela Simson @gratitude_project. She’s local and has fabulous taste in regards to her lifestyle, advice, fashion, parenting and décor.

KF: Tipple of choice?
LLR: A chilli margarita! No need to explain. The taste reminds me of Mexico, holidays and many good days and nights out!
