This week, we talked to Lazy K’s Briana Ali. If you follow Lazy K on Facebook or Instagram (and we hope you do), you’ve seen her handiwork. Next time you are browsing the Lazy K, be sure to say hello!

How long have you worked at the Lazy K?

I started at the Lazy K in September 2015.

What is your favorite part about working at the Lazy K?

I feel as if I have joined a family here at the Lazy K. Everyone from my coworkers to our regular customers make coming to work such a pleasure.

What are some of your favorite memories in your time working here?

The Lazy K dinners are the best. Past employees host and attend every Lazy K dinner and it is a special time to reconnect. I wasn't kidding when I said working here is like one big family. It's awesome.

What is your favorite piece at the Lazy K right now?

We just started carrying Chico-based aromatherapy line, Unlock Home, and the happy scented candle is amazing. I am also obsessed with Vilagallo, a Spanish designer that has just arrived at the shop. Look out for their bohemian Chanel-esque coats. With a constant rotation of new handbags, I can’t even decide on a favorite. I am always wearing them around the store, asking everyone's opinion.

What can we look forward to this summer - any new and exciting pieces coming in?

We have our best selling Dolma tunics coming soon in brand new prints and colors, a perfect weight for the warmer months.

What do you do in your spare time - any hobbies?

I love to cook and go on walks with my family. I also love shopping, for myself and to find the perfect gift for someone, which makes my job at the Lazy K a dream come true.

What is something that people might not know about you?

I was an All-American volleyball player at UC Santa Cruz.
