In the series, The Hills, Lauren Conrad has gone from Orange County beach bunny to budding fashionista. Lauren always looks put together and knows what outfits compliment her small frame (which is important for us petite girls). What I love about her style is that for the most part, it’s casual, but she always adds something interesting to the mix. Whether it’s braids, a piece of jewelry or a cute beanie, Lauren knows how to accessorize like a pro. Working in the fashion industry it’s no wonder Lauren is on to all the latest trends before anyone else. Let’s take a look at why she’s this week’s celebrity style guide…

Lauren looks great in the color navy and I love this high waist dress! Tinypic

I can’t tell if this is a dress or a jumpsuit, but regardless it’s super cute. Love the tiny black belt. Tinypic

Although it’s almost time to put our scarves away, I had to put this one in because it’s a perfect example of Lauren’s casual yet dressy style. Tinypic

I wish I could see this whole outfit, but it looks like either or a jumper or overalls, really cute. Tinypic

I like here how she mixed white, black and red in a very classy way. The shirt is amazing. Tinypic

Really unique dress, kind of 70s style. Looks perfect for a hot summer day. Fanpop

This casual outfit is so cute, red jean, white t and red glasses, love it! Fanpop

This ensemble is totally something I would wear, love the all black. Fanpop
