How motherhood influenced Lauren Conrad’s woman-empowering nonprofit

September 15, 2018

When Lauren Conrad decided to leave her era-defining MTV series, The Hills, in 2009, she got a lot of pushback. One person who was unequivocally in Conrad’s corner, however, was her mother. Not only was the elder Conrad supportive, but she also apparently has a knack for predicting business success: Her daughter’s pivot from reality(-ish) TV to lifestyle brand owner was a huge hit.

In the intervening years, Lauren Conrad has had a hand in everything from clothing lines to books, cultivating a uniform aesthetic along the way. More recently, she has focused on the nonprofit she founded with best friend Hannah Skvarla, The Little Market. The women-empowering company works with female artisans all over the world, especially in areas where women have more restricted rights, to help them sell their wares, which range from handbags and accessories to home goods and baby gear. It’s a business model Conrad could better appreciate after hitting a recent milestone in life.

Lauren Conrad for Redbook Magazine

September 12, 2018

Lauren is the covergirl for Redbook Magazine this October!

If it seems like anything you can do, Lauren Conrad can do better — well, we understand. Take her trick for improving the seemingly unimprovable charity giveaway: "When doing a closet clean-out, make separate piles of stuff and send to appropriate locations [instead of] putting everything into one trash bag. There's Dress for Success for work pieces and places that give nicer dresses to girls going to prom."

But the biggest misconception about Lauren, according to Lauren herself: "It's really funny to me when people have this idea that I have things very put together. My life is a bit of a mess, and I don't broadcast that, but I like it that way." That revelation might come as a surprise given that she has built a whole empire around making life as pretty as possible — from a clothing line for Kohl's to eight best-selling books, including style and entertaining manuals.

Lauren Conrad x HelloFresh

September 8, 2018

Lauren Conrad is the next face for HelloFresh!!!

If you spent a majority of your teenage years watching Lauren Conrad thrive in Los Angeles, then you probably know that The Hills is being revived. You're probably also aware that LC won't be on the revival. Deep breaths, everyone. I know it's a total bummer, but the reality star has been keeping busy with other projects — and you can get involved with one of them. More specifically, Conrad partnered with HelloFresh to create meals that you can have delivered to your doorstep. With that being said, Lauren Conrad's HelloFresh menu will give you the LC fix that you're going to miss once the revival airs.

According to a press release by MTV, the revival of The Hills will be called The Hills: New Beginnings — and it's expected to premiere in 2019. However, Conrad will be stealing the spotlight far before then. The fashionista-gone-foodie will have three recipes featured on HelloFresh's "Capsule Menu" in September and November 2018, and January 2019 — so get hungry. Each month will highlight a specific meal that Conrad loves, and you can check them out below:

September: Sweet-as-Honey Chicken
November: Cauliflower Stir-Fry Bowls
January: Southwestern Chicken Tacos

1. I have a strong distaste for the color purple. I will not wear anything purple or decorate my home in purple hues.
2. I don’t eat dairy. My husband and baby both have dairy allergies, and a few months after eliminating it from our home cooking, I realized I didn’t miss it and felt much healthier without it.
3. I am named Lauren because my mother’s maiden name was Lawrence.
4. It rained during most of mine and William’s coastal Italian honeymoon. Good thing I was with someone I really liked because we spent a lot of the time cooped up inside together!
5. I really love a good pun. I can’t help myself.
6. I post a lot of workout content on the site, but I actually hate working out. Having a workout buddy makes it a little more bearable.
7. I collect vintage apples that I find at the flea market or antique shops.
8. My biggest pet peeve is rudeness
9. The oldest piece of clothing in my closet are my ballet leotards from when I was a little girl. They are so cute I can’t get rid of them.
10. I always have a $2 bill in my wallet for good luck.
