Anyone who was around for the glory days of early 2000’s reality TV already knows all about Lauren Conrad.
However, for those who don’t, or who need a quick refresher on what she’s been up to in the years since, Lauren Conrad is a 35-year-old celebrity best known as a reality TV star, though she has also been involved in several other business ventures since.

Beyond being a famous TV personality, Lauren Conrad is a New York Times bestselling author, a fashion designer, and a philanthropist.

Since her two famous MTV reality shows, Laguna Beach and The Hills, ended, Lauren has launched a fashion brand with Kohl’s, has written fiction and autobiographical novels published by Harper Collins, and launched The Little Market, an LA-based initiative that connects global artisans through sustainable partnerships.
All in all, Lauren Conrad has had an overwhelmingly successful career so far- and she’s still young!
What is LC Lauren Conrad?
In 2009, Lauren Conrad launched LC Lauren Conrad, a fashion brand sold exclusively at Kohl’s.
The brand was launched at the height of Lauren’s celebrity status before The Hills’ final season aired in 2010. However, it’s safe to say that LC Lauren Conrad has officially stood the test of time.

Still active in 2021, the brand has been running for over a decade now. Within the collection, LC Lauren Conrad offers a plethora of items such as: “Apparel (regular, plus, petite), fashion and fine jewelry, fashion accessories, footwear, handbags, bedding, bath, giftables, cold-weather accessories, and ornaments.”

LC Lauren Conrad Jeans: Styles and Sizes Available
Although Lauren Conrad grew up and entered the limelight in the early 2000s, during which low-rise jeans were all the rage, you won’t find many of those hip-grazing styles at LC Lauren Conrad today.
Instead, Lauren Conrad’s style has elegantly changed and evolved with the rest of the world, resulting in styles that prioritize comfort while remaining stylish.

Most LC Lauren Conrad jeans are found in mid-to-high rise waists, which can often be more flattering (and don’t put you at risk of accidental whale tail).
These styles, particularly high-waisted jeans, have risen in popularity since the 2010s and seem to be here to stay. Though, there are rumors about low-waisted jeans making a comeback…

The shape of the jeans at LC Lauren Conrad also varies, with a few nods to Lauren Conrad’s Y2K fashion comeuppance, such as bootleg styles, though a majority of the line is effortlessly classic, with skinny and tapered legs.
Furthermore, Lauren Conrad is proudly dedicated to size inclusivity in her clothing line. All jeans within the LC Lauren Conrad collection run from petite to plus sizes, as well as a variety of lengths from short to long.
No matter your body shape or size, you’ll be able to find a pair that make you feel and look amazing.
LC Lauren Conrad Jeans: Sizing
If her varied career path wasn’t enough proof that Lauren Conrad is the queen of adaptability, her fashion design approach will be.
Lauren has purposely sought out and listened to reviews from real customers of her brand and made changes based on their feedback, as well as her own experience.

These changes include making sure that the top block of all the jeans at LC Lauren Conrad are standardized so that consumers will maintain the same size across styles, making repeat purchases much easier.
She has also incorporated 4-way-stretch Lycra into the collection’s skinny jeans to enhance comfort and ensure that they’re form-fitting, but not form-squishing.
LC Lauren Conrad Jeans: Reviews
LC Lauren Conrad jeans have received a variety of rave reviews, such as:
“The Lauren Conrad jeans are GREAT! I always get the same size but like to try different colors, styles, etc. and every single pair has always fit so perfectly! I can’t say that about any other brand, ever! I recommend these to everyone now!”
However, other users noted that the skinny jeans in particular tend to run a bit small. So, if you have a curvier body type, or you simply prefer slightly comfier jeans, you might want to go up a size just to make sure the jeans hug you gently in all the right places.
LC Lauren Conrad: Production
While the production information of LC Lauren Conrad is not publicly available, Lauren has shown public support for sustainable initiatives.
