Lauren LC Conrad debuted her new Spring/Summer 2009 fashion collection at Smashbox Studios at LA Fashion Week last night (you may recall we got a preview of her collection yesterday afternoon) and decided to head out to STK restaurant to celebrate afterward. Coincidentally, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt — her avowed nemeses (or is it nemesises?) — were also dining at STK at the same time. After emerging from the restaurant, Speidi spoke to Extra TV and publicly gave their congratulations to LC on her new collection with Heidi adding, “I love Lauren”:

Frenemies Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag kiss and make up — and “Extra” made it happen! The “Hills” starlets ran into each other at STK, where “Extra” was with Conrad at the exclusive after-party for her fashion show — when nemesis Heidi and beau Spencer Pratt suddenly showed up! Speidi tells “Extra” they were unaware of Conrad’s party and were just stopping in for a drink on their break from shooting “The Hills” down the street. When Montag saw Conrad arrive, “Extra” witnessed the former BFFs exchanging a polite “Hi” before Lauren went into her separate party room. At the fashion bash, L.C. revealed to “Extra” that Heidi was “cool” — and “it was no problem she was there” just as long as Spencer didn’t cause any trouble. Heidi then pulled an “Extra” producer aside to say she wanted to chat with her old roommate — and “Extra” brought them together! The girls chatted for a moment — then both suddenly burst into tears and HUGGED! After the tearful reunion, Heidi personally thanked “Extra” for arranging the impromptu meeting, and said of Lauren’s clothing, “It’s a great line and I love Lauren, so congratulations.” Even Spencer expressed his support of Conrad, saying, “Congratulations, L.C.”

Say what? I find it so interesting that we, the TV viewing audience, are shown one thing on The Hills (ie. Spencer Pratt’s venomous ire for his enemy LC) and then in real life we see something very different. Click HERE to watch video of Speidi offering their congrats to LC. HMMM. Here is the composite shot that Extra TV pieced together of Speidi and LC “standing together” at STK last night, all smiles:

Does this mean that the bitter feud is finally over? I doubt it. Does this mean that both Team Heidi and Team LC know the value of publicity? You betcha [insert eye wink HERE].

But anyways, LC debuted her new collection at LA Fashion Week last night and managed to fill the front row of her runway show with some very special friends … that didn’t include Heidi or Spencer. After the jump, check out some pics from LC’s show last night … (more…)

LA Fashion Week is already well underway and tonight will be Lauren LC Conrad’s time to shine as she reveals her new Spring/Summer 2009 fashion line at Smashbox Studios. For those of you who will not be attending LC’s fashion show tonight, you’ll be able to click HERE tomorrow to see all of the fashions that will make their way down the runway later on today. Or, you can just check out these preview pics from LC’s S/S ‘09 collection:

From the press release: The Lauren Conrad Collection - Spring/Summer 2009

Silhouettes include a variation of dresses in maxi lengths, strapless, halter, and natural waist fitting styles. There are one piece body suits as layering pieces. Ruffles, ruching, pleating and open back details are seen throughout the collection.

HMMM … is it just me or is there some difficulty differentiating between these new designs and LC’s previous designs. They all look the same to me. Sure there are some differences but really, long flowy dresses and short flirty skirts seem to be the staple. I dunno … I guess the outfits are cute. I wonder what Heidi Montag thinks of this new collection and when her new designs for Anchor Blue will be announced.

Lauren Lo Bosworth wasn’t rollin in Las Vegas, NV all by herself last night, no siree, she was rollin’ with her BFF Lauren LC Conrad (cuz these days where LC goes, Lo goes). But while Lo was bizzy mackin’ on the dudes at TAO nightclub, LC was bizzy downin’ cocktails like there was no tomorrow … which, in Vegas, is pretty much expected. Curiously, LC was spotted rockin’ a new fashion accessory that looks awfully familiar … wherever did we see this sparkly headband before?

Oh, that’s right … it’s EXACTLY THE SAME SPARKLY HEADBAND that Nicole Richie wore during New York Fashion Week earlier this month. Yeah, I can’t really say that I’m a fan of this look but I think the advantage goes to Nicole because A.) she wore it first and better and B.) see A. Who do y’all think rocked the Xmas garland sparkly headband better?

At last … now we know why Lauren Lo Bosworth really won out the battle of the BFFs against Audrina Patridge for the right to be Lauren LC Conrad’s one and only #2 … here are a couple pics of LC and Lo on the red carpet for the 6th Annual TV Guide Emmy Afterparty that show just how handy it is to have a Lo around:

Now that Lo won the battle of BFF supremacy, she has the sole right to bow down and touch the hem of LC’s garment … and inspect it for any imperfections that might need tending to. Oh yeah, you know Audrina ain’t down with that shizz. At last … it all becomes so clear.

Last night the 60th Annual Emmy Awards were given out for outstanding achievement in television at the Nokia Theater in downtown Los Angeles, CA. I was not able to watch the show myself, since I am currently in Reykjavik, Icelancd on holiday, but the reviews are in and I understand the show itself was pretty unwatchable. Despite the shortcomings of this year’s Emmy Awards show, the whole reason for the shindig in the first place is to hand out awards to some very deserving folks … oh, and for the fashions on the red carpet. Here are a few pics of some of the folks who strutted their stuff down the red carpet last night:

Christina Applegate looked stunning on the red carpet, I’m so glad to see her looking so well. Heidi Klum and Julie Benz also looked pretty amazing … I threw in David Boreanaz so that there could be a little bit of Angel/Darla love going on here. I liked Brooke Shields’s pink dress and I thought Kathy Griffin picked out a nice wig to wear for the event. Here are a few pics of some of the winners in the Emmy Awards press room backstage … I also threw in some non-winners as well, cuz they were brave enough to pose for pics without having actually won anything last night:

The sleek ’60s drama “Mad Men” made Emmy history Sunday as the first basic-cable show to win a top series award, while the sitcom “30 Rock” and its stars Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin also emerged as big winners. “We’re all so very grateful to have jobs in this turkey-burger economy,” Fey said after accepting the best comedy series trophy for her satire about a late-night TV show. “This is the greatest job I’ve ever had in my life,” Baldwin said of his role an a network executive. He paid tribute to Fey, the NBC show’s star and creator, as “the Elaine May of her generation.” “I thank my parents for somehow raising me to have confidence that is disproportionate with my looks and abilities. Well done. That is what all parents should do,” said Fey, who also won for best actress and writing in a comedy series. Emmy voters rewarded quality, not ratings: Many of the winners draw relatively small audiences. AMC’s “Mad Men,” which looks at America through the prism of Madison Avenue, is lucky to get 2 million viewers. Glenn Close of FX’s “Damages” and Bryan Cranston of AMC’s “Breaking Bad” captured drama acting trophies. Close, honored for her portrayal of a ruthless attorney, complimented her fellow nominees, including Holly Hunter and Sally Field. “We’re proving that complicated, powerful, mature women are sexy in high entertainment and can carry a show,” she said. “I call us the sisterhood of the TV drama divas.” Cranston won the trophy for his role of a desperate man who turns to making drugs. Dianne Wiest of “In Treatment” and Zeljko Ivanek of “Damages” won supporting acting honors for the drama series. Jean Smart of ABC’s “Samantha Who?” was honored as best supporting actress in a comedy series, with Jeremy Piven her actor counterpart for “Entourage.” Piven took aim at the five reality hosts who helped open the ceremony in what could charitably called a rambling way, saying, “What if I just kept talking for 12 minutes — what would happen? That was the opening.” The crowd at the 60th annual Primetime Emmy Awards laughed heartily, not a good sign for the hosts, who included Ryan Seacreast of “American Idol.” … Jeff Probst of “Survivor,” one of the ceremony’s masters of ceremonies, claimed the first award for best reality series host. “We feel honored to be part of this family. Thank you for letting reality in,” he said … HBO’s “John Adams,” about the founding father, was named best miniseries and won other awards including acting trophies for Paul Giamatti, Laura Linney and Tom Wilkinson. The historical drama set a record for most awards, 13, including five trophies Sunday and eight previously announced. The record of 11 was held by HBO’s “Angels in America,” the TV academy said. HBO was the most-honored network, with 26 awards earned Sunday and at the creative arts ceremony held earlier this month. ABC was second with 12 awards, followed by CBS, NBC and PBS with 10 each; AMC with eight, Showtime with five and Fox with four.

Felicitations and congratulations go out to all of this year’s Emmy Award winners … but I am struggling to find nice things to say about last night’s award show. Since I didn’t get to see it for myself, I have to rely on what others are reporting … and none of it is good. After the jump, check out some of the scathing yet funny bad reviews of last night’s 60th Annual Emmy Awards — believe me, some of them are deffo worth checking out … (more…)

In Touch Weekly was the first to report last night that Audrina Patridge has packed her bags and has moved out of the house that she shared with BFF Lauren LC Conrad and Lauren Lo Bosworth … and the MTV Cameras were there to capture all of the tearful (and staged?) goodbyes (sure to be featured on an upcoming episode of The Hills). You will note that Lo was happy to help carry boxes in order to make Audrina’s move as successful and quick as possible … what a pal. Here are pics from yesterday’s dramatic excitement:

In Touch can exclusively reveal that the Hills girls are about to become even more distant from one another-literally! “Yes I am moving out,” Audrina Patridge confirms to In Touch as she began moving belongings from the house she shares with Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth in LA. Audrina and Lauren fell out only weeks after they started living together with LC’s childhood pal Lo.

TMZ also reported on Audrina’s move but about an hour after In Touch did … to their credit, tho, they did manage to offer a new bit of unsubstantiated info:

“The Hills” ain’t big enough for Audrina Patridge anymore. Sources close to Audrina tell TMZ a spin-off show starring Audrina is “in the works.” And it’s all happening fast — moving trucks are in front of the house she shares with Lauren Conrad and Lauren Bosworth right now. MTV released this statement: “MTV has no plans for a spin-off with Audrina.

I’m not entirely sure that I believe that Audrina will get her own spin-off show … especially since Whitney’s spin-off show has yet to air and we have no idea if it’s gonna sink or swim. If anything, I can see Audrina leaving the show altogether to try and make her own way in the world … away from LC’s coattails. Actually, I heard rumblings about Audrina’s defection from the house at the 2008 MTV VMAs Official Afterparty but I kinda forgot about it until this news broke last night. In any event, wherever the road takes you, Audrina, I wish you much happiness and luck … and I’m sure that Lo will always be there to offer a helping hand if ever you feel the need to move even further away from The Hills.
