Lauren London amplifies her style with clean and unexpected details to give her fashion sense a pop of personality every time. “I’m very simple in my look,” she said during her sitdown. “It’s very important to stick to who you are. [I’ll wear] the basic black shirt with the back out or [has] sheer to it so you think it’s just a basic black shirt. But when I turn my back, you see there’s something different.”

We trailed the L.A.-bred actress to Satine in Venice Beach, which carries the type of simple, high-end pieces Lauren loves. But no matter how easygoing the 29-year-old mommy is with her look, she has some strict style rules this summer. Timbs and cut-offs for ya girl? Nah.

“I just don’t want to see Timbs in the summertime in L.A. I don’t want to see it in L.A. anymore.”

In contrast to her character Kira’s playful, bright pops of color on BET’s The Game, the self-proclaimed Tupac fan sticks to a simple palate of color: blacks, whites and reds. Watch Lauren London’s shopping trip above.
