Lauren Conrad Scores Cosmopolitan's October Cover

Lauren Conrad is US Cosmopolitan's October cover girl, making it her third cover in three years for the international title. She also fronted the November '08 and July '09 issues, but judging by the pics, you'd never know so much time time had passed. She's got the same blonde locks, Cheshire cat grin and all-American style as she did on The Hills, 'cept this time round, she sports a Zac Posen printed dress (same one as Anna Kendrick wore to the MTV Movie Awards, 'member?). The fashion designer and author is promoting her new style book, called, err, Style, and is reportedly shopping around for a new reality series. I do have a soft spot for LC, but I must admit, I'm getting kinda bored with her cutesy Californian style. I would have much prefered an edgier, less smiley cover. What do you think?
