Hi Everyone!  Welcome to The Lola Column, a blog that highlights fashion, travel and keeping life fun, flirty and adventurous.

My name is Laura Shames and I am the voice behind The Lola Column.  I have an  insatiable love of Paris, traveling, food and photography.  I believe that age is only a number, globe trotting is a sport and fashion is a powerful form of self-expression.

My  passion for living life to its fullest keeps my husband and family busy and on the go.  Life is too short to stop! I was the lucky bride to Adam in 2006, and am a mom of two amazing children:  Olivia who is 7, going on 17 and Alexander who at 5 is still obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine.

The Lola Column blog was conceived of in late 2015 as a place to share all of this stuff overcrowding my head, heart, and life.   I wish to connect with readers like me, who like to keep life alive, can laugh at themselves, and enjoy a good cry from time to time.  At 40, I still have my edge.  I embrace living in the suburbs, but can still maintain a chic city life.  And, I chant, “Traveling the world IS DOABLE with children.”

My biggest mottos and favorite words of wisdom are:  “You can do it all!”  — AND — “Everything happens for a reason!”

Be Fearless.  Be Fierce.  Be Brave.  Be You.

XOXO,

Laura
