The travel club for hotel lovers

Lauren Smith Ford

Stylist and sojourner

At her small Catholic elementary school in South Texas, Lauren couldn’t understand why they only had altar boys, so she set out to change the school’s policy, becoming the first of many altar girls to come (and making the nuns very proud). She’s always loved an adventure and continues to find many as the editor and creative director of Tribeza magazine, the leading arts and culture magazine of Austin, Texas. Lauren’s work as a writer and wardrobe stylist has appeared in Esquire, Glamour, Marie Claire, Teen Vogue, Texas Monthly and among others, Wired Italy.
