Dear Lauren Conrad and Bill Paxton

I showed The Well Dressed Sports Girlfriend a few pictures of Lauren Conrad and Bill Paxton throwing out the first pitch at recent baseball games.  This is what she had to say . . . 

Lauren:
It's no secret that pigtails annoy me.  I understand that long, straight hair can be a fashion nightmare for the well dressed female sports fan, but that still doesn't excuse the trying-too-hard pigtail look.  And it especially doesn't excuse the weird lion mane pigtail ends.  Apparently L-Con's hairdresser got bored of braiding halfway through.  He should be fired.

Pigtails aside, though, this is a B effort outfit.  I don't love what looks like a black long sleeved shirt under the white jersey.  The jersey is also a little big.  I know form-fitting isn't exactly what jerseys are about, but if you've got a body like hers you might as well show it off a little.
Finally, the hat and jersey combo is a little much even if she is a die-hard fan.  In my opinion, L-Con could have really wowed the crowd with a simple (form fitting) Dodgers t-shirt paired with the hat.  And don't forget the sporty ponytail to top it off.

Bill:
Good old Bill has the look down.  His jersey fits well: most importantly he's not swimming in it.  It's also a nice crisp white without looking brand new.  His jeans are appropriately day-of-the-game boring without being unflattering.  

And he's refrained from too much additional Dodgers swag, adorning his look only with a manly wristwatch.  His look is the epitome of good dad and approachably handsome fan.  But next time, Bill, bring some Oakleys.  There's nothing sexy about retinal damage.
