This one has been brewing for a while now, but I keep forgetting to wax confused by it. Behold Audrina Patridge, having completed -- presumably -- her transformation into having more fun:

It's not that she looks so terrible as a blonde, but... really? Did The Hills need another blonde? Granted, the only other brunettes on that show are Stacy The Bartender, who injected idiotic fake drama into the Speidi relationship with all the skill and enthusiasm of someone trying to shove a brick through a tennis racket, and the terminally drippy Jayde -- girlfriend of the terminally cheesy Brody Jenner. So I can't say I blame Audrina for wanting to distance herself from that aesthetic. But she was also THE brunette on the show for a long time, and there's no way anyone who watches is going to mistake her for either of those other two yokels, so why she felt the need to make herself just like everyone else on The Hills is beyond me. She doesn't even get to fall back on being The One With The Giant Fake Boobs, because Heidi got there first. Too bad, so sad.
While we're here: I can't even work up a criticism of the outfit because it's just sort of there. (Kind of like Audrina herself at times.) The shoes are fun and I like the bag, but maybe not together -- certainly not both of them with that fuchsia. And the dress is kind of sagging on her boob job, which in many respects defeats the purpose of getting a boob job -- and seriously, honey, if you're insistent on wearing a strapless dress, can't you at least get out the power sander and slough off those tan lines?
Huh. Turns out I could work up a criticism on the outfit. Who knew?
