Ever since Lauren Conrad first graced our screens in the hit reality show Laguna Beach and The Hills, it’s safe to say that we’ve been obsessed.

Through everything, she’s remained grounded and true to who she is, and is a go-to source of inspiration on a myriad of things, whether it’s how to host a grown up party or simply how to recreate the signature French braid she does in her bangs.

All in all, this blonde beauty has earned her time in the sun, so here’s what we can learn from her in the avenues of style and career.

Style

Lauren Conrad lives and breathes fashion. She began pursing a career in it at school and then again in L.A. during her internship at Teen Vogue, the mother of all internships. She worked backstage at fashion shows, wrote for the magazine and has since put all of her skills, passion and experience to good use for her very own fashion line LC Lauren Conrad for Kohls as well as for her best-selling novels on fashion and beauty.

Aside from her fashion lines, Lauren creates inspiration in her everyday life. When people aren’t obsessing over which filter she’s using on Instagram—no one has figured it out yet—they’re gushing over her feminine, easy beach looks.

Career

Not wanting to be labeled a reality TV star forever, Lauren made the smart choice of leaving The Hills before the series ended. This was obviously very sad for fans of the star, but it paid off big-time for her as she has been able to focus more on her coveted brand.

In the past few years alone, she’s launched her own fashion lines and collaborated with major companies in the business, published novels, started a popular lifestyle website and still had time to look fabulous and get married to musician and law graduate, William Tell.

Actress Jennifer Lawrence easily comes to mind when thinking of Hollywood It Girls. Much of this is due to her girl-next-door appearance, which only makes us love her even more. She’s clumsy, having fallen several times during award shows, and isn’t afraid to say things that celebrities wouldn’t normally say during interviews.

The fact is, the girl is just plain talented—she can act, charm anyone she meets and sing! Here are the two major avenues in her life we can draw inspiration from.

Career

While it was a major deal for her to land the role of Katniss in The Hunger Games, she didn’t want to stop working between movies and forever be known as “that girl from The Hunger Games.” Instead, she went on to establish a name for herself by landing several other major roles, such as those in Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle, X: Men, Serena and Joy.

It was in these movies that she earned several awards and nominations, including an Academy Award for Best Actress in Silver Linings Playbook and a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress in American Hustle. It’s safe to say that Lawrence’s career is currently on fire.

Charisma

Jennifer Lawrence has come a long way, both personally and professionally. Back when she was younger, she suffered from social anxiety but, instead of letting that bring her down, she overcame the fear through her acting career.

Despite all the success she’s accumulated over the years, she is still the same loveable, quirky young girl who came onto the Hollywood scene out of nowhere and stole our hearts.

Gigi Hadid

2015 was definitely a good year for Gigi. Everyone wanted to know everything about the new blonde bombshell who took the modeling world by storm, landing major gig after gig with her latest being a stunning nude cover for Paris Vogue.

In her free time, she’s often found living her fabulous A-List life by hanging out with fellow model and BFF Kendall Jenner or making out with some of young Hollywood’s hottest celebs. Here are just two areas in which this new It Girl inspires us.

Love Life

In the past year alone, Gigi has been open with her heart—and her youth—as she’s played the field in high-profile relationships with Cody Simpson, Joe Jonas and, now, Zayn Malik. She was even featured in the music video of his newest single “Pillow Talk” since his split from One Direction, where the two spent most of the song touching faces and making out. Ah, young love.

However, her love life is something to admire and draw inspiration from as she clearly realizes that she’s young and doesn’t need to be settling down so soon or staying in a relationship that doesn’t make her one hundred percent happy, especially while in the peak of her career.

Style

As a model, Gigi can make even a paper bag look glamorous, so it’s no surprise that her off-duty style is just as flawless. In the past, she’s been photographed alone, with her latest boy-toy or strolling side-by-side fellow fashionista Kendall Jenner. Some of the most coveted looks have included stylish gym clothes, cute sunglasses, bomber jackets, Yeezy sneakers and glamorous dresses.

With all of these Hollywood It Girls in mind, who else do you think deserves the title? Let us know in the comments!
