My HP Spectre laptop proved to be the perfect summer companion (both for work and play!), and now after months of using it to push my work further I can give my very honest review. I think we would all agree this is one stylish computer. When I first laid eyes on this pretty lady while on set in LA I gasped–”do I really get to take it home with me?!” Immediately I was drawn to the laptops sleek architectural design and cool rose gold and charcoal color scheme, but it wasn’t until I used this baby in my everyday life and on set for a few months that I’ve become completely obsessed.
Besides the stylish-ness (I’m even surprised by the amount of comments I receive when working from coffee shops), and portability, a couple additional key elements I can’t get enough of are: 1) the Bang & Olufsen sound system which makes watching videos a serious sensory overload (and my go-to choice now for all Netflix bingeing in bed), and 2) the hybrid battery technology which maximizes the charge–enabling me to work much longer without access to an outlet (plus this charger is quite stylish in itself).
Working with the HP team to create my own custom experience and put the Spectre to the test on set was the true highlight of this program for me. Not only has collaborating with HP inspired me to push my work to a new level but I’ve learned the importance of bringing my laptop along on the bigger shoots with me when styling and collaborating with a team. Seeing my styling work unfold on the laptop screen in real time was key for getting the exact shots I had envisioned.

Would love to hear what features you look for in a laptop–did any of the HP Spectre features resonate with you?
Thank you to HP for collaborating with me on this series!
