Laura Ruof

The one piece in my closet I absolutely can't live without is...
My black motorcycle boots -- they give my outfits a little edge.

Current obsession...
My new zen room in my apartment. I do yoga and meditation there and I'd be a mess without it.

The one song I can listen to over and over and over to is...
"Dreamers" by Savoir Adore, forever.

The latest trick I've picked up from the other R29 editors is...
Bumble and Bumble Dryspun Finish spray. I finally have that messy-yet-together hair thing down.
