Meet Lauren

HEY, YOU GUYS!
I’m Lauren Massarella and I am a hygge lifestyle blogger from Chicago, where I live with my husband, Anthony, and our cat, Egon. My obsessions include, but are not limited to, sunsets, cortados, candles (lots of candles), mezcal, my tiny family, and being a hostess with the “mostess”. Everyday, I’m on a mission to live my best life with this one chance that I have been given. How? You may ask--let’s discuss.
Ever since I was a little girl, I have been enamored by the Midwest’s four seasons, party planning, and embracing cozy moments of all sorts. I love the bright colors that the spring and summer bring us just as much as I worship the warmer hues of fall and the darker days of winter. Hosting friends at my home makes my heart happy. I think I got that from our mom – our house was always filled with people...and food.
I always try to find gratitude in the present moment. Whether the day gives me sunshine or rain showers, I try to go with the flow and enjoy whatever I get.
Can’t be too picky these days. Perhaps this mindset is what led me naturally to teach yoga and become a hygge lifestyle blogger, it’s the perfect recipe for me.
If I am not teaching a sweaty, hot yoga class, you can find me exploring the world thru food and drink. I wear clothes that compliment my relaxed lifestyle and love tending to my urban garden. As I mentioned, I am on a mission to live my best life...and you’re invited! Come along for the adventure and enjoy a life of coziness and a bit of simplicity with me.
Happy Hygge-ing,
xoxo, lauren
