Lauren Conrad looked gorgeous showing off a few sassy Summer outfits for a photoshoot with LA Direct Magazine. The California girl is just as sunny in her interview as she is in the photos, talking about her great year and how far she's come since her days on Laguna Beach. Here are highlights:
“I always say this isn’t what I signed up for. I thought I signed up for a one-episode documentary."
“I feel like [the show] makes me look like I sit around all day and feel sorry for myself, but I’m actually a very happy person. Sometimes I want to reach into the TV and smack myself, and say ‘get over it.’”
“It’s been a crazy four years, but they’ve been amazing. I got to travel all around the world. I’ve met so many cool people. I’ve had all these opportunities. I’m really lucky. You got to take the good with the bad.”
Lauren has come a long way since those Laguna Beach days, but it's refreshing to hear her sound so grounded and humble. Plus, we love to hear that she's more upbeat than it sometimes seems on her show.
Celebrating the Fourth of July is one of our favorite parts about kicking off Summer! All the barbecues and fireworks are only as much fun as the people you spend them with and while nobody can replace our dearest family and friends, if you had the pick of your Hollywood favorites — who would you want to spend Fourth of July with?
Reese Witherspoon shopped in London earlier this week, but between her cute hat and nautical colors she's already ahead of the game on her Summer trends. The actress has been back and forth spending time overseas to hang with Jake while he's filming Prince of Persia in the UK for now and soon in Morocco. While all she needs is a splash of red to get in the Independence Day spirit, even if this adorable couple had to miss out on Fourth of July festivities in the states this year, we're sure they'll still find a way to make some fireworks of their own.
Hilary Duff was absolutely adorable in her little dress and heels picking up a few groceries and a lot of flowers the other day. She looked very ready to spend some time soaking up the sun for her long holiday weekend. Miss Duff is always sunshine when she shows that big smile, and she probably had a perfect Fourth of July with her sunflowers and her man Mike.
Ashley Tisdale celebrated her 23rd birthday yesterday (Happy Birthday!) hanging out on the beach in Hawaii with her boyfriend Jared Murillo. She showed off her bikini body underneath a sensible sun hat enjoying her time off after wrapping filming on High School Musical 3. We'll be getting lots more photos of stars enjoying the holiday weekend in the sun be it on the beach, by the pool or just soaking up the Summer rays in cities around the world so stay tuned for all our Fourth of July fun to come! Hope you all have an amazing, safe, relaxing and fun-filled 4th, too!
Kristin Cavallari went for a coffee run in LA, mixing elements of glamour with punk rock. She spiced up her jeans and white tank with a black fringe vest, her go-to Alexander Wang studded duffel bag, and some nude Brian Atwood pumps.
