To Dye For

FlynetPictures.com
Hey, remember Lauren Conrad? She of awesome hair and questionable taste in men? The only one on The Hills who had a brain (except for that whole not going to Paris for the summer thing)? Okay, Whitney and Lo seemed to have brains, too, but I've been girl-crushing on Lauren since she went by LC on Laguna Beach and had a dramariffic non-relationship with the illusive Ste-phen!.

Anyway, she's basically managed to get even more fabulous - a style book, a series of novels, a couple clothing lines, a column in Forbes, and a (somewhat) surprisingly insightful website. All in all, pretty impressive for a privileged girl from the golden coast of California who probably could've coasted by on her looks for far longer than any of us would've remembered her name.

This post is not about my girl-crush, though. It's more about the awesomeness that I've discovered on her latest venture - the beauty department. It's mostly a collection of beauty tips and tricks, plus some fun polls and useful tutorials. My absolute favorite thing so far?

This:

Seriously. How can I suddenly sprout a foot of blond hair and then find someone to tie-dye the tips for me?

It can't be that impractical, can it?

Even if it is... I just don't care.

Love it!

What do you think?
