The influencer is selling life in the suburbs.

THE CONNECTICUT tourist board should cut Paige Lorenze a check. “Getting me into Manhattan is like pulling teeth,” the 25-year-old influencer and founder of the lifestyle brand Dairy Boy told me as we sank into the cloudlike couch in her home. Last year, Lorenze moved from New York to Southport, Connecticut—a suburban enclave right on the edge of commuting distance to Manhattan. The yards are big, the trees old, the driveways large enough for her Chevy and her Porsche. Gone are the days of partying in the back seats of Ubers. Her Instagram page is now an endless scroll of coastal-country porn—riding her horses, Navy and Louie, through the woods; stacks of chocolate-chip pancakes on a checked tablecloth; her silky blonde hair tied up in all kinds of bows.
