A few months ago I was the subject of a big joke… I got Punk’d! The episode featuring yours truly airs tonight on MTV. Be sure to tune in at 10/9c to see what unfolds. Let’s just say I kind of flipped over a dumpster…

Here’s a little sneak peek of what’s to come:

And here are a few exclusive behind-the-scenes post-punk photos:

Are you going to watch Punk’d tonight?

Also, what was your favorite old school episode of Punk’d? I remember thinking the one where Justin Timberlake’s car got repossessed was pretty good… Poor Justin!

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend! I spent a majority of my time last week on tour for my new book, The Fame Game. I stopped in Chicago, Austin, Dallas and Houston and am finally back home in LA. The final stop on my book tour is tonight at Barnes & Noble at The Grove in Los Angeles. If you’re in the area, please stop by (Click here for all the details)! I love meeting you guys and hearing what you think about the book. Anyway, the point of this post is to show you guys what I’ve been up to this past week. So, without further ado, here is my past week in photos… 

Before heading out to Chicago, I did some work at the Paper Crown offices. This book, 9 Heads, is the only book I still use from school. 

Saw this and just really liked it. 

Finally got to Chicago and loved these ladies’ homemade tees. 

Got this cute friendship bracelet at one of the signings… 

Then I was off to Texas. I felt pretty tough with my spiked collar…though it may have been offset by my headband and tweed shorts.

Isn’t that the truth? Especially if it’s early in the morning… :)

Wore denim on denim… I think it’s a definite do so long as the denims are contrasting shades.

And a little something to remember me by Dallas…

This watch was water resistant. Unfortunately, it wasn’t Lauren-proof… 

Well hello gentleman…

And goodbye. (Man-eater!)

Yum! Nothing beats old-school tots…

Watched this beautiful sunset on the flight home…

Back in LA at last! Stopped by On Air with Ryan Seacrest to say hi…

Then I was off to Chelsea Lately…and this happened:

Did you come to one of my signings? Or are you coming to my LA signing tomorrow? Let me know in the comments.

Also, what do you think about the denim on denim look? Do or don’t?

I survived my very first Coachella! I had heard so many things about the music festival that I wasn’t sure what to think. But as soon as I arrived, I understood. Coachella is all about having fun, being free, and enjoying good friends and good music. 

The week before we headed out, we heard it was supposed to pour on Friday. Luckily, it just drizzled and the rest of the weekend turned out to be pretty nice. Anyway, here are some photos I snapped during my trip: 

On the way out, I didn’t feel great about the weather…

Once we made it out to the desert, it wasn’t as rainy as it was in LA…

As I’ve mentioned before, my friends are seasoned Coachellers…always with a camera in hand:

Coachella, here we come!

Go big or go home…

You don’t say…

My bestie, Jilly, enjoying the scene… (Click here to check out the sweet Coachella mix Jilly put together for me. I still cannot stop listening to it.)

Hanging by the pool at the Lacoste Live event. Yay for pool-chella!

Embracing body paint and temporary tattoos… 

Much better than sitting on the grass…

This may not have been my best look, but I was toasty all night!

Love this.

Jilly took a quick nap-chella… (People were not kidding when they said Coachella is a marathon. I am wiped.)

Life is good.

Oh hey!

Bright idea…

Here we go again…

Off to the festival… 

Just converse-ing with some old friends :-)

Loved Gotye!

All in all, I had the best time at Coachella. I ran into so many friends and really enjoyed myself. Even though the weather wasn’t ideal for day one, I cannot complain. The cooler temps were probably much more favorable than the sweltering heat of year’s past. The silver lining? I finally got to wear my rain boots…

Of all the bands, Gotye was definitely a highlight for me. 

Who is your favorite band or musician from the Coachella lineup?

I’m back on the road for my book tour and have been a very busy bee. Here’s a glimpse into my world over the past week or so…

Waiting in the greenroom before my interview on “The Wendy Williams Show”… (Click here to watch a snippet of my interview and see what I wore too.)

Well hello out there!

Outside The Wendy Williams Show…

Grabbed some delicious sushi and sake with an old friend… Cheers!

My friend Trey Phillips stopped by my book signing… He was pretty popular with the ladies :-)

Another early call-time for my team… 

And what was that early call-time for you ask? Oh you know…just a quick 5-hour satellite media tour… No big.

Sitting on Kristin’s lap… She loves this! Can’t you tell?

Had a little treat after one of my signings. Yum!

And wow. Received this amazing cake from Cakedreams by Deb and Dinacakes… It’s too pretty to eat!

I’ll post another update soon! In the meantime, click here to see what I wore to my signing in NYC… My team will be updating the site with more photos later today too about my outfits.

Last Friday, Siren Studios threw me a big party in honor of the release of my new book, The Fame Game. It was such a fun night! Aside from the fabulous refreshments and décor, the best thing about the party was the definitely the photo booth—courtesy of LA Photo Party! 

Here are a few of my favorite photographs from the night…

With the fam :-)

Besties <3

Here I am with my book editor, Farrin… Love this!

Ha...

Just hanging around reading... 

I had such a great time looking through all of the photos and I love how they all turned out… If you ask me, no party is complete without a good old photo op for guests to shine.

If you’re hosting a bash, I highly recommend setting up a backdrop and a camera on a tripod along with some props so guests can snap pictures throughout the fete. For all of my tips on creating your own DIY photo booth, click here. 

Which picture is your favorite?

XO Lauren

P.S. A very special thanks to everyone at LA Photo Party for making it such a wonderful night! The photos came out beautifully and the “booth” was a total hit at the party.

How To Dress Business Casual

I am so honored to be on the May cover of Glamour… Here’s a peek at the cover:

I know the cover shot was a risk, but I think they did a lovely job making it tasteful and fun. I’m usually pretty shy when it comes to showing skin, but I figured that I might as well show what I’ve got while I am still young!

Also, here’s an exclusive outtake from the shoot… 

In the photo above, I am wearing a pair of my favorite heels for spring from my LC Lauren Conrad collection as well as a dress by Paper Crown. I think it’s a fun shot.  

As you can see from the photos, it was really windy and pretty cold too. It was kind of funny how windy it got. I thought we were all going to blow away so I took this little video on my phone so you can get a sense of how windy it was (and you can see what it's like on set too):

The issue hits newsstands next week so be sure to pick up your copy and read my interview where I talk cellulite, life after The Hills, and more…

What do you think about the cover shot?

So happy to be home! I had a great time on my trip, but really missed my friends and family… Believe it or not, I am still a bit jet lagged. I'm hoping I will be back to normal by tomorrow though. Since I got back, I’ve been busy with all sorts of exciting projects that I cannot wait to share with you. In the meantime, here are some photos from my week. Enjoy!

Took this photo when I got back from my trip… Missed my bestie! Slumber party!!

The next day I was back at the Paper Crown offices… Had this as a little snack. (For more of my favorite healthy snack ideas, click here.) Yum!

Me vs. Jetlag

At a Paper Crown fitting for our Holiday collection… Love.

Sported silver Mickey Ears for the Disney Store’s 25th Anniversary…

Don’t forget!

Just hanging with my peeps… Actually, I was working on another fun Peep project for Easter. Blog coming soon!

What did you do this week?

Have a great weekend!
