Quintessential California girl Lauren Katherine Tell, better known as Lauren Conrad is one of the television's blonde, blue-eyed primetime girls. Due in part to the famous reality television series, Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and The Hills. A well-known television personality with a huge following, a fashion designer with a stable clothing and fashion apparel line, and an author who was penned nine books. Success after success, Lauren Conrad is every bit the mom-trepreneur with a very successful fan base. Add digital influencer to her list of credentials, she is every bit the Hollywood mogul.

But is she really the perfect housewife and entrepreneur with a golden touch? Even google can attest that our dear Lauren has little to no ugly photos. No underwear pics, exposed nudes, or pics of the young party girl in an unglamorous state of stupor. Not one! Seems unfair for the lot of us that are struggling to keep from being tagged in photos by our friends on Facebook. Even with the tickbox “approve first before tagging,” dastardly compromising pics of drunk us still appear on our walls. But really now, Lauren Conrad is indeed human and she must make mistakes from time to time.

15 Boyfriend Wardrobe Makeover

Packing on the PDA with ex-boyfriend and actor Kyle Howard back in 2009, Ms. Conrad’s slouchy white tee is a classic. Just enough slouch and not to long – perfect fit. The tucked-in-front style in on point too. Relaxed, straight leg jean is also a check in our fashion handbook -- it’s the casual Sunday stroll outfit. Of course, her Chanel handbag isn’t too shabby either.

Let’s get a consensus about the boyfriend. His clothes are rather shabby. And that’s an understatement! C’mon, it’s like he pulled out his clothes from a mound of laundry! Unkempt, un-ironed, and too loose for his physique. He’s a good looking guy but the slouchy jeans don’t complement his backside. Not even Brad Pitt could pull off that outfit. She could have at least given him fashion advice before they left the house. She does have a degree in fashion, right?

14 Halloween Mishaps

Left photo – what is she dressing as exactly? Looks like she was having a bad hair day and chose to leave the house un-coiffed. Dress? Blah. We don’t get it either. We’re sure she’s going somewhere with this and is supposed to be looking like a scary character. Is it just us? Maybe we’re just not Halloween character literate. Still, shame on you Lauren for looking so ordinary! We expected more from you!

Duck, duck...oh wait! She’s a blue goose! No, she’s a blue bird! She’s the Twitter bird! How very DIY ingenious. Blue feathers, the yellow bill, and the muted stockings are a tweet giveaway. Took us a few minutes to guess what she was but we got there in the end. Still blah though. Let’s tweet about this poorly thought of Halloween mishap of a costume...in 140 characters or less!

13 You Know What You Did

It’s been a decade since Heidi Montag and LC called it quits. When, “You know what you did,” was uttered in the first episode of season three, it was the demise of a reality television BFF relationship. Then started the awkwardness, the petty catfights, and the much talked about but never confirmed sex tape. All the stuff reality TV is famous for! We are still hurting from their “breakup”... NOT!

Fast forward to a few years later, Spencer Pratt -- then Heidi Montag’s boyfriend, and now husband -- was the root of the sex tape rumors. Eventually leading to LC leaving The Hills. Heidi and Lauren never became besties again and the rumors died down. Now a decade after, both are new moms trying to put the past behind them. Will there be a reunion of sorts for the ex-BFFs? We hope not.

12 The Ex Boyfriend(s)

It is common knowledge that Colton Haynes is now happily engaged to his fiancé Jeff Leatham. That being said, this is a very awkward photo for LC, who is for sure having sexy thoughts about Colton. Entertainment websites cite that the two are still very much in touch and are good friends. Still, doesn’t discount the fact that THEY happened. This, and a bunch more photos of them are online and it is somewhat A W K W A R D.

If you ask us, their relationship and this photo are a good reminder of a love story that wasn’t meant to be. Something that can be shown to friends and family whilst reminiscing. Look how things have turned out for the both of them. With their own significant others, leading lives straight out of a fairytale. Who knew, right?

11 Swimsuit Cutouts

It is just so difficult to find a compromising photo of Ms. Conrad, but we are certainly trying! Here’s an implicating one -- blue cutout, sultry swimsuit. My, oh, my Lauren please cover up! We are not liking the sexy, seductress persona this photo is trying to put out. And that hair! Can it get any more luscious? Do not get us started on the flawless make-up.

Not sure if this poor excuse of a swimsuit is available in her LC clothing line but we are certain it is sold out already. We can see the beeline snaking through the doorway of Kohl’s as we speak, full of women dying to get their hands on this flattering piece. The bad thing about it? Too much midsection exposure and air hitting the exposed areas. We feel a tummy ache coming on.

10 Hangover Skin

Have you tried waking up early in the morning after a wild night overindulging in booze and partying? What’s the first thing you notice? Yes, of course, it’s your breath dumb-dumb. But what else? It’s your bad skin! Sunken and dark eye bags, the baby pimples, the dry skin, and lips. What happened! See, here is an example of that morning-after-a-party look and LC is rocking it!

Wait, this is a salon pic so let’s give her props for tending to herself post-party. Lauren, Lauren, tsk tsk. We see some early signs of breakouts! Didn’t your dermatologist tell you to go easy on those peanuts at the bar? Maybe it’s time to ask the assistant to book an appointment at the facialist while you’re at it. And get some Gatorade too, for rehydration. Girl, you look tired! Hmm, you know what you did!

9 Color Me Bad

LC’s style has run the entire gamut and spanned the color wheel when it comes to hair colors and styles. She has tried everything! Blond, brunette “Orange County hair,” over processed, mermaid hair, bobbed, short, pin straight, long, colorful tips and hair extensions (which are sold on her website btw), wavy, permed, and all other creative, and destructive, ways of styling her head full of hair. There are times she rocks her new hairstyles, but there are days that she doesn’t.

Hit and miss? It’s all trial and error in the LC world of locks. Either way, documentation of a bad hair day is still is one of those things you do not want to see online. With all the work done on her tresses, we’re surprised she isn’t bald yet! Come to think of it, we’re betting she’ll even rock the bald look. How utterly unfair is that?

8 More Tape Please

Wardrobe malfunctions are so ordinary in Hollywood. Lindsay Lohan, Madonna, Chrissy Teigen, Nicki Minaj, J-Lo, they are all doing it! And LC did it too! A peek of some upper thigh leading to the nether regions, a nip slip, undies or lack thereof -- all are unintentionally done. But, are they really? Justin Timberlake’s boob grab move with Janet Jackson was more talked about than the performance. Do we even remember what they sang? Chrissy Teigen’s up-to-the-waist slit during the American Music Awards was so photographed, it went viral. Accidental or not, you be the judge.

Lookie here, Ms. LC is showing more cleavage action than she normally would. Shame on you LC for showing too much boob! You should’ve used more double- sided tape on your dress to keep it in place! Even LC can’t deny the fact that her dress is a disaster waiting to happen. Any minute now…

7 Sparse Eyebrows

Sparse eyebrows were a thing back in the day. They made women look sophisticated and womanly. Unfortunately, they aren’t now. Just look at Camilla Belle, Cara Delevingne and Keira Knightley, they all have covetable, bushy eyebrows. The stuff we women with over plucked brows just dream of! It’s nice to know LC is one of us. It makes us feel better to know that once in her life she too was an overzealous, serial brow plucker.

So yes -- this is not a good photo. This should be included in her recycle bin stash along with all the other compromising photos above. The thin strips of brow age her, adding about a decade to her looks. If you look closer, you’ll notice they’re crooked too. Maybe that was a fad before? Maybe her makeup artist knew something we didn’t? For real, they’re crooked! Look!

6 Ugly Cry

Everyone cries and everyone looks different when they cry. Some look (and sound) like a pig being slaughtered, and most of us women, honestly do not look that cute when we are bawling our eyes out. So this is another clear indication that Lauren Conrad is just like you and me. She’s ugly when she cries! Well, maybe just a little ugly.

We are pretty sure this was during an episode of The Hills, but it’s still not a good photo. This picture definitely doesn’t count as blackmail material but it’s still one that warrants a “delete” in our book. If her mascara was runny and dripping all over her cheeks then that would be another story. Thank god for waterproof mascara and eyeliner. They save us from embarrassing ourselves and not looking like a raccoon on a bad day. Hurrah!

5 BFF Breakup

Heidi Montag and Lauren Conrad’s friendship was short lived. It started in 2006 and ended in the middle of 2007 with the much-publicized MTV show, The Hills. LC accused Montag and her boyfriend Spencer Pratt of fabricating rumors about an alleged sex tape between her and her ex, Jason Wahler. During which the famous, “You Know What You Did,” line was uttered. And that was the end of that.

Both Heidi and LC have obviously moved on from the bitterness and since both have families of their own, have (maybe) buried the hatchet. Or have they? LC must still regret seeing photos of her and her bestie Heidi online. Especially photos when they were still the innocent looking, flat-chested, and bare-faced young leading ladies of MTV. Yep, send all those Montag/Conrad photos straight to the delete bin. Stat!

4 Bad Kind Of Needy

Being a needy girlfriend or boyfriend is not a bad thing. But, being the desperate one clinging with all their might to someone who isn’t reciprocating the love is another thing entirely! There is the good clingy and the bad clingy. Fear is often the cause of the bad kind of needy. Jealousy, doubt, and paranoia can destroy the trust of any well-meaning person. This lack of trust leads to insecurity, paranoia, and for the girlfriend to be in a non-healthy space. But maybe LC wasn’t appreciated and didn’t feel secure in their relationship? Or maybe she needed more love. Who doesn’t, right?

This GIF is a compilation of photos from The Hills TV show showing tear-jerking scenes with LC and her then boyfriend. Needy much, LC? Good thing this happened years ago and LC isn’t in that bad needy place anymore. Good needy for the win, LC! We’re so proud of you.

3 How Much Is Too Much?

When is tanning too much? Whether under the sun or in a tanning salon, too much exposure to UV rays is dangerous for anyone. There is the increased risk of melanoma or skin cancer, wrinkles, and damaged skin. In the United States, roughly 30 million people tan indoors. Studies say tanning beds are more harmful to the body than natural sunlight. Tanning is so dangerous that some countries, like Brazil and Australia, have banned it altogether.

We are sure LC is aware of all the dangers of tanning and sunning, and is aware of the fact that her pasty, white skin shouldn’t be subjected to too much of it. This green satin dress is not doing her any good either. Instead of a healthy, tanned glow, reminiscent of vacationing on a tropical island, we see her looking like a carrot in this dress. Not her finest moment.

2 Reality TV Breakup

Break-ups are traumatic. Break-ups with almost half the world watching are downright brutal! This is what the world of reality television is like. The Hills was produced by MTV, and was one of the first unscripted, reality TV shows. At the time that The Hills aired reality television was still a very new genre, so people did not really know what to expect. People clamored for the real-life situations and drama in this new genre, making the characters skyrocket to fame.

The world witnessed ordinary people experiencing their day-to-day lives. Everyone got to see LC and all the pain she felt when she shared emotional moments onscreen. Raw and unedited. These are photos she wouldn’t want to be reminded of, that is why this one is on this list! Reality TV breakups with a million or so people right there in the room with you must be pretty wild.

1 LC Intoxicated 

Alcohol makes us forget what’s going on in our lives, albeit, temporarily. Excessive amounts of alcohol can cause an imbalance of chemicals and nutrients in the body, which in turn can lead to anxiety and depression. 9 out of 10 people in the United Kingdom indulge in alcohol each week. It can be damaging to the health if drank in excess too. Some of us drink alcohol if we’re sad and broken, some just do it out of boredom.

Sadness was always a part of the Lauren Conrad drama that unfolded before our eyes. Television allowed us to see the worst of her fears, which she fought as much as she could. At times she got drunk and scenes like those never ended well. Number fifteen on our list is LC in all her drunkenness. Dark eyebags, messed-up hair, intoxicated, and sad.
