Lauren Conrad Talks Massive Success

What began as a reality television gig on “Laguna Beach” has turned into a full-fledged multifaceted career, and Lauren Conrad is counting her lucky stars.

The “Hills” babe left her MTV roots to pursue writing bestselling books and designing clothes and it has definitely panned out for her.

Of her first novel “LA Candy,” Conrad explained, "I didn't take anything specifically that happened to me. The only thing that I did was ... it was a way to show not necessarily me, but just the other side of being on a show like ours. For everyone that's done it, I think you see one side and you don't see the other. It's kind of an interesting story to tell."

As for her LC Lauren Conrad clothing brand with Kohl’s, "It's very much a California brand. It's all about incorporating new trends and putting our own twist on it — relaxed cool without trying too hard.”

Got Milk?

Showing up for her “Got Milk?” gig, Lauren Conrad was spotted at The Grove in Los Angeles, California on Tuesday (June 15).

The “L.A. Candy” author looked adorable in a one-piece, navy blue romper and heels as she made her way to the set where she sipped milk for the commercial.

In other news, although she left the show two season’s ago, Ms Conrad was recently nominated for her fifth Teen Choice Award for “The Hills.”

Also nominated for the “Choice TV: Female Reality/Variety Star” crown is none other than “The Hills’” new leading lady, Kristin Cavallari, as well as “Jersey Shore’s” Snooki, the Kardashian sisters, and “American Idol’s” Crystal Bowersox.

Looks like Lauren’s got some stiff competition!

Dog Walking Darling

Keeping both herself and her canine companion in good health, Lauren Conrad was spotted out walking the dog in the Hollywood Hills on Thursday afternoon (March 26).

The reality star turned hit author looked cute in a black pullover, black leggings and shades with her hair pulled back in a ponytail as she and a friend escorted their furry friends around town.

The sighting comes just as it was announced that Miss Conrad's former MTV show, "The Hills," is coming to an end with the airing of the upcoming season beginning on April 27th.

With many hoping to see LC make an appearance before the show draws to an end, one fan named Ally told MTV News, "I would like to see Lauren come back on the show. She's my favorite. She's so cute and pretty and sweet. That's pretty much all I would really, really want to happen."
