ABOUT
Welcome! I'm so glad you are here. I’m Orly, the founder of Lara & Lou. I am a wife and mom of two beautiful children and I am also a medium. I’m based in LA now, but growing up, I moved around a lot, living in two different countries and multiple homes. With each new house, I realized that it’s possible to make a home wherever you are; all it takes is a little bit of intention and a whole lot of love to create a place you feel at ease, and a sense of comfort and belonging.
When we moved to LA, I started looking for beautiful, one-of-a-kind handmade items from countries around the globe that would be a reflection of the culture and traditional craftsmanship of each place. I have always been fascinated with heritage, and I wanted to find items that tell a story—traditions kept alive, woven deep within the work, passed down from generation to generation. I was also looking to expand & start something new after having our second child, Lara. I thought: why not share what I have found with others while doing what I love?
Once the shop was open, I had a new understanding, a need, to offer more than the physical products: I wanted to use my gifts to help you tend to your own spirit as well as the life of your home. These include spiritual tools and guidance to enhance your connection with your inner knowing, your higher self, to help you come home to who you truly are.
And so, with the hope of keeping traditions alive as well as curating offerings that can support your own spiritual journey, Lara & Lou was born.
Inspired by global heritage and wanderlust and handpicked from countries around the world, each item in my shop possesses an energy that will help bring your home to life. There’s a spark of magic behind everything you see—and that’s exactly why they’re here.
Intentional and thoughtful, my vision for Lara & Lou is to help you come home to you, one step and beautiful piece at a time.

Much Love,
Orly
