A lot of you guys have asked me where I like to blog.
No BS, my favorite way to blog is to go to a restaurant & sit by myself.
Usually it’s a coffee shop & I’ll order a espresso shot or lately, a cappuccino with cinnamon. But I also have this whole sushi restaurant routine: I wear sweats & tee and bring my computer to the sushi bar. While blogging I order my favorite veggie roll: avocado, carrots, jalapeños, a little spicy mayo, & ginger, a miso soup, and a hot green tea. Sometimes when I’m feeling wild, I’ll have a glass of pinto grigio. It’s this little hole in the wall sushi restaurant so it’s the perfect place to concentrate & get shit done.
Something about sitting by myself at restaurant, blogging, inspires me. Weird?

These shots were taken at the coffee shop underneath my house called Aristan Bento. Besides my hole in the wall sushi restaurant, it’s my other favorite place to blog. It has this big window so there’s LOTS of light & it perfect for people watching while I work.
Anyway just wanted to give you guys a peak in to where I love to blog when I’m not in my office. Sometimes getting outside of the everyday work space makes me feel more creative/inspired/peaceful.
For all the bloggers out there: where do you like to blog? Would love to hear!
Typically when I’m out blogging, I’ll bring a camera in case there’s anything interesting to shoot.
Since my regular camera is SO F-ING HEAVY, this white polaroid fits perfect in my oversized purse. Plus it’s lightweight, chic, & takes instant pics. Polaroids are so #TBT in the best way possible so it’s fun to use them to decorate around the home.
And GUESS WHAT GUYS?! TSC & Urban Outfitters have teamed up to giveaway one of these adorable, white cameras. You can enter the giveaway by tagging a friend with #URGIFTED on my latest Instagram picture.
By the way, if you’re looking for a cutie, girly Christmas gift you have to check out this leather jacket ( SUCH A STEAL— it’s 30% off too ), these sunglasses, & the dress I’m wearing.
Ciao!

Thank you, Tamy! I will definitely check out your giveaway!! xx
Long ago I use to love blogging at home, but now I’m all about coffee shops! I feel like the smell of coffee and the sound of the expresso machine get the creative juice going.
Yesssss. The smell of coffee is the best.
Love that camera! The electronic shops here sell a mini printer that will print pics from your phone onto the same little Polaroids. It’s on my Christmas wishlist~
I miss eating alone and finding creative spaces outside the home. That’s my biggest grief about moving to a small town, the closest cafe is an hour train ride away.
I need that printer!! Sounds so cool!!
I live in Hawaii, so naturally I like blogging from the beach! Totally adore the polaroid camera <3
Hawaii!!! You’re so lucky!!! I bet you’re constantly inspired : ) x
Can’t wait to enter! Thanks Lauryn!! xo

I’m with you on the coffee shops. I have never tried blogging at a restaurant, but it sounds like it would be a cool environment. Plus I’d be extra pumped to eat some good food while working haha. But I totally agree sometimes you have to get out of the house to feel inspired and be around people..even if you don’t necessarily talk to anyone, it helps!
That’s so cool you blog from a sushi restaurant. I blog from my kitchen counter. That’s where I am right now. But I could always go for a veggie roll and glass of pinot grigio. 🙂
I love coffee shop blogging! It makes me feel so chic 🙂 plus it’s how I get my best blog inspiration. I find out all the latest trends by eaves dropping on coffee shop conversations. It’s literally how I found out that you can grind your own almond butter at whole foods. So yeah, totally support the coffee shop blogging movement!

1st – I put cinnamon in my skinny latte this weekend because of you, and it was DELISH!! Thanks.
2nd – The suspense is killing me. When are you going to blog about the mushrrom powder you are obsessed with? I’m thinking of trying mushroom powders & I’m curious about your take/experience with them.
Lauryn, where are your sunglasses from that you are wearing in these picsin this post? I love them!
I couldn’t agree more with your spots for blogging. There’s something so nice about having an amazing hot drink and sunlight that gets the words flowing for me too. Love reading your blog!
Very inspiring Lauryn- you nailed this article! When will the giveaway be announced? Such a fun camera!!
I usually blog on my couch. Hopefully there is a glass of red wine involved or maybe a Michelob Ultra lol.
I’m not mad about this. Kind of jealous, in fact : ) x
This is seriously one of the cutest camera’s out there! I also have a super heavy big Nikon camera that I do love but sometimes feel like the paparazzi when I carry it.
Love it! You look gorgeous with your hair up. xx

Sushi and wine are my pre-blogging rituals as well. I don’t know what it is, but theres something about sushi that just gets my creative juices flowing!
Happy blogging! xo
I usually like to blog from my office at work when I’m done working or on break. Something about being at a desk makes me more able to write and get down to business!
You are seriously too gorgeous – that is one killah top knot lady 😉
What a fab giveaway! Fingers crossed xoxo, D

Lovely lace dress! And, I have been eyeing one of these adorable Polaroid cameras for a while.
Such a cute dress! I love blogging from a coffee shop down the street from my apartment, but I somehow usually end up working from home.
Happy Monday!

What camera do you recommend for a beginner interested in blog photography that won’t break the bank?
This sounds a little weird but my co-blogger and i come up with ideas in the Sauna at the gym! We both lay down and talk it out while sweating it out! Loving you ideas and that adorable camera! Thanks for the constant inspiration for our blog launching in January! XX Meghan
I always blog from home (unless I’m traveling) but since I don’t have a set office it varies between my dinner table and my couch!!
I would actually love to get out and blog from a cafe, especially if it gets me out of the house. The whole thing that stops me is having to lug my laptop around!
