You might know Laura Harrier as an actress known for her roles in Spider-Man: Homecoming, BlacKkKlansman, and Holllywood, or as a fashion icon constantly making best dressed lists (the dramatic suiting by Zac Posen for GapStudio at last year's Met Gala, anyone?). Her style is both elevated and effortless, and she looks just as comfortable on a red carpet as she does in a simple tank. In fact, that's her go-to uniform right now. "I've been living in a pair of black baggy trousers with a tank top, a sweater, an open button down shirt, or a trench," she says. "My spring outfit formula is always a variation on that." It's no surprise that STAUD and Amex Gold would tap her to front their new campaign and short film (Harrier counts STAUD founder, Sarah Staudinger, a friend and called the collaboration "easy and chic").
When she's not working on one of many projects, Harrier, like many of us, loves spending her time shopping. "I love Scout for vintage, Mohawk, and Squaresville is a good low-key vintage store. I usually do vintage in LA," she says. You can also find her protecting her peace while wearing eye patches pulled straight out of the fridge ,or seeking out adventure in true Aries spirit. "I'm an Aries sun, Scorpio rising, Taurus moon. I am very Aries in that I'm direct and can be a bit spicy, but I think I'm a bit grounded by the other aspects in my chart, hopefully," she says. "The Aries in me pushes me to always explore."
Despite her jam-packed schedule—which includes four forthcoming films—Harrier finds calmness where she can, whether that be through lounging while reading her Kindle or traveling with friends. For the rest of the year, she's manifesting more connection, with both those already close to her and new people that cross her path.
We caught up with Laura Harrier in the midst of a LA heatwave and asked her to share her open tabs, from what she's shopping to the last book she ordered.
