Lauren Conrad Makes Her "Mark"

FIDM Merchandise Product Development major and The Hills star Lauren Conrad made the cover of the Los Angeles Times' Image section yesterday.

Her challenge: to put together a fabulous outfit from the Fashion District's Santee Alley for $100.

(The Alley, a local bargain mecca, is just blocks from FIDM's L.A. campus.)

Clever Lauren was able to put together TWO outfits! Read how she did it.

If you didn't already know, Lauren's been signed as the first spokesperson for Avon's youth-oriented Mark line of cosmetics, and her own line of clothing will launch at LaurenConrad.com September 15th before hitting stores.
