started shopping there all the time, and joke with
the owners that the stores should really be called
“Lauren’s Closet”.
Though it’s hard to imagine looking at her
latest work, Lauren says she always considered
herself “fashion challenged”, and Le Chateau
solved that problem. Consistently faced with the
question of what to wear to a range of events,
effortless and versatile are two things she
looks for when putting any outfit together. “The

the laid back vibe shoppers are sure to feel while
perusing her collections, and spends her free time
with her three boys preferably laughing in front of
the TV or at a BBQ with friends.
