About



Welcome!  Rubies on Vanilla is a collaboration between two friends inspiring women and men to take a fresh look at their closet.  Our real life examples are showcased in the Wear Your Closet and Styling the Basics shoots.   

The message: Wear the clothes you own! By building a versatile wardrobe and keeping an open mind about styling, you can save time and money while also creating a very personal fashion statement.

One of our goals is to provide a visually dynamic experience by utilizing creative photography and selecting vibrant locations.  You’ll see guest photographers and artists on several posts and we encourage you to check out their portfolios through the links provided.  We feel honored to be friends with and collaborate with so many talented individuals!

Please explore and we hope you are inspired!

Background on Danielle & Lauren:

Danielle
From her early childhood, Danielle has always found a way to express her individuality through fashion.  Through meticulous closet editing and unique clothing purchases, she’s been able to create a distinctive style that’s all her own.  Her goal is to inspire others to find confidence in expressing themselves through their wardrobe.  Danielle is the stylist and primary writer for Rubies on Vanilla.  

Lauren
An artist in every sense of the word, Lauren's primary focus is capturing the female form.  Her personal style is easy-going and because she spends her days working in her studio she frequently falls into the function-before-fashion category. But don't let that fool you, she loves to get cleaned up and dress up!  Lauren is the photographer and contributing writer for Rubies on Vanilla.
