Introducing: MARISA LAUREN

Who: Singer, song writer & actress Marisa Lauren. Born in Tierra Verde, Florida. Today Marisa lives and works in Los Angeles.

Where: You have probably either seen Marisa on the TV show ‘90210′, on ‘Greek’ or you might have heard her music, which she writes her self.

Marisa started modeling as a kid and quickly fell into acting. She has since worked her way up and made a name for herself among the tops in Hollywood. Hard work, talent, focus, beauty and brains is securing this lady a bright future.

Which city would you max out your credit card if you could?
That’s a tough one… either NYC or London. My style is very punk rock inspired & those cities are the best for that.

What is your favorite store?:
Urban Outfitters…lol. It’s on just about every other corner, so if you need to grab something quick for a last minute party or event it’s super easy and affordable!

What is your advice when it comes to dressing up:
Dress for yourself. If you like it… wear it! Don’t wear something only because you think a guy might like it or because it’s the latest trend. You feel your best when you’re in something you Love.

Who do you think is the most stylish person on Earth?
My dog. Lol… I know she’s not a person, but she’s the most stylish bulldog I know. 2nd to her I would say Gwen Stefani. She is effortlessly sexy and tomboy chic.

Do you have a favorite motto or quotation?
Art is Power

Who is the most inspiring person to you?:
People really don’t inspire me. Music, art, fashion, & literature inspire me.

What is your biggest dream?
To use my public popularity amongst kids & teens to educate them on things going on in the world that they might not be aware of. I’m a huge supporter of PETA & a charity called Falling Whistles which saves Congolese children from child soldier camps. As Maya Angelou said “When you know better, you do better.”

What do you wish you knew 10 years ago?
What other people think or say about you is completely unimportant, and there are no set rules to live by. You make your rules. You make the life you want.
