SHY AT KATSUYA

Posted Jan 11 2012 @ 11:53 PM

Photographed leaving Katsuya in Hollywood on January 10, Lauren Conrad seemed to be a bit shy and tried shielding her face from the ever-present paparazzi. I always find it funny when celebs act like they don't want to get their picture taken when they're leaving Katsuya, especially when paparazzi pretty much camp out in front of the restaurant! You don't want your photo taken? There's about 1,000 other sushi restaurants in LA that the paparazzi don't frequent. Just a tip! For her sushi ensemble, Lauren paired a high waisted cream colored skirt (for something similar, check out Joie's Lotus Skirt in New Moon) with a black camisole (try Soul Revival's Amy Cami in Black) and classic black blazer (you can't go wrong with Elizabeth & James' Cate Blazer in Black), and then donned a pair of studded black lace-up booties and carried a black tote with gold chain detailing. A menswear-inspired watch and gold double finger ring (take a look at Erica Anenberg's Cosmo Sparkle Twosome Ring in Gold/Clear) finished off LC's 'fit. What are your thoughts, readers - good or bad style choice for Lauren on this night? In other Lauren news, the former "Hills" star allegedly ran into ex-fling Derek Hough at popular LA hotspot Beacher's Madhouse. According to People: "Lauren was fairly reserved, dancing occasionally to the music. But she seemed giddy when he approached her table around midnight, giving him a huge hug hello and touching his face with her hands. Though they were friendly throughout the evening, it didn't appear like they were rekindling anything romantically." That's nice that there was no awkwardness between the two!
