''When coming up with the character of Lauria, Maliaka McCain (who is a character designer on the series) described her as "A mixture between Daphne Blake, Marcia Brady, Jackie Burkhart, Cher Horowitz, and Lisa Turtle." She had a valley girl attitude and loved to shop, and made sure her friends were in the latest fashions. She wasn't mean or full on rude, she just was misunderstood by others. ''

This fashion-obsession was removed in order to give her a down-to-earth yet outgoing side.

Lauria often usually wears a light purple tank top, lilac short sleeved cardigan, a purple layered skirt, and purple platform boots.
