Lauren Conrad, the adorable and pregnant The Hills star, made a rare public appearance Saturday at the L.A. outdoor shopping center and celebrity hot spot, The Grove. We had a little break between storms, so it was the perfect place to be!

The fashion designer announced her pregnancy on New Year’s Day via Instagram.

“Happy New Year! I have a feeling 2017 is going to be the best year yet…” she captioned a photo of her beautifully manicured nails holding a sonogram.

This will be LC’s first baby with husband William Tell. The two met on Valentine’s Day 2012 during a blind date set up by mutual friends, and wed in September 2014.
