Even though Kristin Cavallari won't be appearing on The Hills, she's still very much in front of the camera. Kristin hosted a very chichi luncheon Wednesday at the Beverly Hills Women's Club that I attended with my party podcast pal Amy Paffrath. The event featured a Bebe fashion show with proceeds benefiting the Make-a-Wish Foundation.

"I'm about to go to Canada to film a movie, so I'm trying to go to the gym and be good," Kristin told us. But that doesn't mean she's cutting carbs or booze completely. She made a beeline for the chips and dip and downed some nice champagne. My kind of girl!

Kristin was chatty about her recently finished work with Kevin Connolly, who's directing a series of short films about uncomfortable moments. "Mine's called Dry Humping, and I'm making out with my boyfriend and his dad comes home and catches us in the act," Kristin dished. "It's really cute and funny." Kev's Entourage pal Adrian Grenier also shot a short for the series. The shorts will debut on American Eagle Outfitters websites and stores.

And because it was a fashion show, I just had to get her thoughts on Laguna rival Lauren Conrad's new clothing line. "Oh, I actually haven't seen it," Kristin said breezily, "but best of luck to her with that."

Who says this girl can't act?
