Lauren Conrad rarely goes out without expertly lining her lids with black eyeliner for a
perfect cat eye effect. To get the look bring the edges to a point at the outer corners,
which opens up the eye and makes them look larger.
2. CINCH YOUR BELTS

LC loves to highlight her waist—she believes is there’s no better ally than a great belt.
Pair them with everything from draped dresses to minis to oversize tops to reign in
voluminous fabric and create an hourglass shape.

LC’s signature hairstyle is her braid. Take a cue from Conrad’s assortment of styles and
try a side braid with a half updo or casually twist one into your strands when you wear it
down.
4. SKINNIES + LOOSE TOP = BEST COMBO EVER

5. Conrad says skinnies are her go-to cut, pairing them with billowy blouses and lengthy
tunics for the perfect balance of shape and proportion. Look for leather or dark-rinse
denim styles for a slimming silhouette.

Conrad chooses shorts that transform an otherwise casual item into a perfectly dressedup look. Try a flat-front black pair, which can translate into a great evening look with a
pair of pumps and loose blouse.
6. WORK YOUR JACKETS

The perfect layering piece that can give any look polish, blazers are a staple of Conrad’s
closet. Use a long, lean boyfriend cut to instantly update a traditionally feminine look.
7. GO FOR THE MINIMALIST OVERSIZED BAGS

Conrad usually opts for neutral totes that are large enough to stash a little bit of
everything. Look for bags with little embellishment or texture in rich hues like camel,
caramel or sand to go with everything in your wardrobe.
8. ADD A WAVE OF CURL TO YOUR HAIR

fashionable.
