Basic hair change? Not so fast.

Lauren Conrad upgraded her dirty blond locks to a bright platinum hue, posting a snapshot of her newly dyed tresses on Instagram today. The 28-year-old fittingly captioned the bright selfie, "things are getting real blonde around here..."

So why the sudden change of hue? Perhaps the updated look is in preparation of Conrad's upcoming wedding date this fall. Or maybe the eye-catching new hue is a response to Allure magazine for calling out her one of many "basic women" notorious for their "blowout or sausage curls."

Either way, Lauren is lookin' good! She's the ultimate California girl, after all, so this shade totally suits her. 

Conrad rarely changes her hair, so we're pleased to see the star's fresh hair color. And if other celebrities are any indication as to what The Hills alum will do next with her tresses, we're predicting a summer bob cut to follow shortly.
