They've come a long way since dropping their first uncomfortably long pause. But just because the cast of "The Hills" now spends their Saturday nights getting dolled up by an entourage and posing for paps in designer dresses doesn't mean these ladies weren't absolutely beautiful back in the humbler days of Laguna Beach keggers and Hillside Villas sunbathing sessions. Take a look at some of the oldie but goodie-goodie pics we pulled out of the archive to celebrate the (sniff) series finale of "The Hills" (Tuesday, July 13, at 10/9c).
First up, Kristin Cavallari (aka K-Cav)
As Lo told Kristin on this week's episode, she's always been the girl who guys wanted to (fill in the blank) and who girls simply wanted to be. She's evolved into a stylish and poised young woman since high school, yet we doubt anything/anyone will ever take away her feistiness (especially when some dumb psycho someone equally as opinionated crosses her path).
Heidi Montag (aka One-half of Speidi)
You don't live under a rock, so we won't bore you with observations about how much she's physically changed. Still, looking at this picture of Heidi and Jordan from Season 1, we can't help but wonder, What if the young couple had actually worked things out, gotten hitched and led a quiet Spencerless life teaching Sunday School in Crested Butte? Would she look the same as she does now?
Audrina Patridge (aka 'Drina)
Audrina's always been the girl whose photo you place on your refrigerator to keep you from snacking more. While her pretty face has matured quite a bit, we dig that she's still sporting them ceiling eyes.
Lauren Conrad (aka LC)
Everyone loves Lauren because no matter what the drams, she's always stayed true to herself. Same goes for her appearance. Even today she proudly rocks the Cali beach cutie look. Girl's just got a much better dye job to go with it now.
Whitney Port (aka Whit)
She may have moved on to "The City" and settled right in the center in all kindsa semi-grown-up person BS, but we'll always consider her that sweet, by-the-book Teen Vogue intern who tripped down the stairs on live TV.
