Lauren Conrad’s Style book is getting slammed. People in the fashion industry give Lauren props for trying, but sadly, say she misses the mark. The entire bullseye, apparently.
More pictures of Lauren after the hire…
She misses the mark because she didn’t write the book! Now, Lauren can’t be blamed for that, because most Hollywood types hire ghostwriters for their books, she was just following suit.
Sure, everyone knows that Conrad doesn’t actually design her clothing collection for Kohl’s. And that her fiction books are ghostwritten by one writer or another. But to give advice on personal style when yours is so limited? That makes us a little uncomfortable.
Conrad may be gorgeous. And she might wear (arguably) cute clothes. But someone is telling her what to wear. And how to wear it. The big takeaway from a recent People StyleWatch interview is that Conrad suggests taking your clothes to a tailor for a more precise fit. Revolutionary.
Ouch. Hopefully Lauren has thick skin so the rash of negative comments that will certainly come out closer to her book release won’t sting. Do you think Lauren has enough experience to write a style guide or should she have waited?
