BEAUTY & STYLE REC OF THE WEEK: LAUREN CONRAD


I was never a huge Hills fan (though I must confess, it was an occasional guilty pleasure a couple of years back), but I have to admit this girl sure knows how to build a brand around her perfect beachy waves! who else but Lauren Conrad. From red carpets to paparazzi street shots she always manages to look head-to-toe gorgeous. Her trademark waves and cat eye are the beauty everyday inspiration to girls around the globe and probably most pinned beauty images. She has quickly become a style icon and a successful businesswoman yet still manages to keep that girl-next-door look authentic and achievable for us mortals.

Her Style Manual is a true reflection of her classic understated persona. From building your wardrobe from basics such as jeans and tees to how to shop vintage or online, layering necklaces, to alternate uses for silk scarves, wearing colors and mixing patterns; you'll find every style basic in this easy, no BS simple guide, beautifully illustrated with pictures of LC herself featuring her statement looks.

Her Beauty guide is perhaps a bit more elaborate, proving once more this girl can only go up and has done some growing up in all senses in the past five years or so. Following the same layout as her Style guide, LC sticks to clean pictures and texts you'll breeze through. You'll find entire chapters dedicated to skin care with easy to follow steps to read your face, hair care, makeup with all her trademark tips and tricks product by product: foundation, concealer, mascara, lipstick and whatnot. 

You'll also find easy to follow step by step application tips to master the no makeup look, morning makeup, makeup guidelines if you have dark complexion, fair complexion, freckles etc.

Her Everyday Hair chapter including tools and products will make you want to stop pinning images of LC's perfect waves, bangs or whatever she's wearing these days and actually try it yourself with her mistake-proof tutorials.

Oh! how you inspire us LC...!!!
