DATING DEREK HOUGH?

Posted Oct 01 2011 @ 01:41 PM

Lauren Conrad was photographed making a variety of facial expressions after a night out at popular Hollywood destination Beacher's Madhouse on September 28, opting for a classic LC ensemble for her night out. After slipping into a trademark pair of black leather leggings (go faux with Yoana Baraschi's Faux Leather and Knit Legging in Black), Lauren wore a ladylike navy silk blouse (similar to Boulee's Dillan Top in Navy) and a pair of strappy black platforms (check out Diane von Furstenburg's Zia Sandal in Black). On the accessory front, one of her trusty Chanel handbags and a simple silver bangle (like Elizabeth & James' Wide Studded Bangle in Sterling Silver) completed Lauren's look. Ever since splitting with ex Kyle Howard a few months ago, Lauren has been single and seemingly ready to mingle. The latest reports claim that Lauren has allegedly been mingling with "Dancing with the Stars" star Derek Hough. According to The Hollywood Gossip, "They've been on a few dates together." The duo was most recently seen at Sayers Club in Hollywood, where another insider reports: "They were pretty cozy. Definitely playful and flirty. They were close to each other. He had his arm around her waist. They were dancing and also holding hands. When they left, paparazzi snapped away, but the two didn't stand too close together. A security guy also tried to block the shots." What do you think of this potential reality star coupling - do you see it working out?
