H. STERN EARRINGS
Most people's everyday earrings are a pair of go-with-anything basic studs. Nicole Richie's, however, are just a tiny bit more special: $1,500 H.Stern diamond-embedded stars.

NICOLE RICHIE
The deep side part and heavily slicked-down strands Nicole sports at the ALMA Awards in Pasadena, Calif., are sophisticated, while the slightly messy ballerina bun speaks to her relaxed, bohemian style.
NICOLE RICHIE
Part topknot, part beehive and 100 percent retro-fabulous, the star's do – created by twisting a thick lock of hair around the front of her high chignon – is the perfect way to accessorize a funky vintage-feeling dress.
DOWN-UNDER DRINKS
Nicole Richie, 5-year-old daughter Harlow and 3½-year-old son Sparrow go on a beverage run Wednesday in Sydney, where dad Joel Madden is appearing as a coach on Australia's version of The Voice.
RIHANNA VS. NICOLE
The Tom Ford gown Rihanna selected for the Met Gala may be the most demure look she's ever picked out. But the same dress at cocktail length on Nicole is one of the more avant-garde things she's worn.

FOLDOVER PANTS
Wrap dresses: universally flattering. Their lesser-known cousin, wrap pants: not so much. (Unless, of course, you're the very petite, very fashion-forward Nicole Richie, in which case you can get away with wearing them.)
NICOLE RICHIE
She's tried pretty much every cut and color under the sun, but this above-the-shoulder bob with piecey layers, which the star shared with her fans on Instagram, might just be our favorite look yet.
NICOLE & JOEL
Wedding style: Over-the-(Big) Top
Nicole Richie is all for dealing with an elephant in the room. Her December 2010 Beverly Hills wedding to Joel Madden drew upon historical royal extravagance – they were inspired by the French palace of Versailles – but it was the pachyderm that greeted their 155 guests that made a lasting impression. "Nicole getting an elephant and not telling me is typical of our relationship," Madden said of his wife's whimsical good-luck charm. "But if there's one time I want her to have the craziest thing she wants, it's the day we marry."

NICOLE RICHIE
Nicole opts for a bright, embroidered Balmain mini with gray pumps and shows off her chic bangs (which her husband just noticed) at a dinner party for the French fashion label in L.A.
NICOLE RICHIE
We know, it's hard to get past this hair. But let's focus on her outfit for the time being. Nicole looks straight out of the '70s in a long-sleeve beaded Saint Laurent mini (and yes, more white pumps) at the AOL's Digital Content NewFront in N.Y.C.
CHOOSE FORMFITTING OVER BAGGY
You'd think that tempering the sexiness of a sheer piece with a looser silhouette would make sense, but as Nicole Richie (in Emilio Pucci) and Demi Moore (in Valentino) prove, tight and see-through beat baggy and see-through.
6. REVEAL YOUR NATURAL BEAUTY
No lipstick, no eyeliner, no problem! A selfie is all about you, after all, so let your good looks (not that new shade of shadow) take front and center. In that spirit, take it all off like Nicole Richie, because nothing is worse than trying to pass off your one-on-one photo shoot as a full-blown Glamour Shots session. (But please do keep your clothes on – this isn't that kind of self-portrait.)
BACK TO BASICS
Home in the states Tuesday after an island vacation with Jessica Alba, Nicole Richie gets back into her routine – hot beverage in hand – in Studio City, Calif.
JESSICA & NICOLE
After joining forces at Paris Fashion Week in March, Alba and Richie appeared to be beachy besties while on vacation in St. Barts on April 7.

NICOLE RICHIE
After being arrested for heroin possession in 2003, Richie headed to rehab to clean up her act. However, in 2006, under the influence of Vicodin and marijuana, she found herself driving the wrong way on the freeway – and facing jail time. About a year later, though, she announced she was pregnant with her first child – and sober. "I'm in a completely different place right now," she told Diane Sawyer. "I owe the baby my life."
NICOLE RICHIE
Yes, this is the stomach of a woman who's given birth to two children. She shows it off in an ultra-short brown tee and a black high-waist Satine skirt.

FASHION PLATE
Nicole Richie wears a divalicious outfit as she heads to the New York City set of the Today show Thursday to promote her NBC reality series Fashion Star, which has its second season premiere on Friday.
HOUSE OF HARLOW 1960 JEWELRY
Nicole Richie loves to model her own designs, especially the more affordable ones (like this House of Harlow gold arrowhead pendant, $75, and stackable rings, $75), proving that statement bling doesn't have to leave you with a painful credit card statement.
NICOLE RICHIE
Halle Berry's asymmetrical hemline didn't win you over, but we bet Nicole's will. She wears the white mini with a moto jacket, smoky eyes and slicked-back hair to a party for Carine Roitfeld's CR Fashion Book.
NICOLE RICHIE & FRANK OCEAN
Is that the look of love? Perhaps a shared love of Valentino. The two stars – she in a strapless ruffled mini and he in camo pants and a graphic tee – lock eyes at the show.
NICOLE RICHIE
No flats for this Fashion Star, who didn't let pregnancy slow her down (she launched a collection for A Pea in the Pod a few months before giving birth to second baby Sparrow in 2009) or change her polished style.
HAUTE MAMAS
It's another all-black maternity ensemble for mom-to-be Kim Kardashian, who joins fashionable friend Nicole Richie at Givenchy's Paris Fashion Week showing on Sunday.
NICOLE RICHIE
This stunning Etro halter gown, which the star teams with smoky eyes, Jemma Sands earrings and red pumps for the QVC Red Carpet Style event in Beverly Hills, is almost enough to convince us to wear velour.
NICOLE RICHIE
The designer's clearly been working on her abs so she can pull off this black crop top, which she pairs with a black skirt and moto boots at the HelloGiggles and Satine's trunk show in L.A.
NICOLE RICHIE
It's all black everything for Nicole who attends a pre-Grammys Salute to Industry Icons in Beverly Hills in the (non)color head to toe – dramatic black liner, a reptilian-print LBD, a coordinating clutch and pumps – save for her killer red talons and H. Stern jewels.
BOLDLY GO
Serious on top and party-ready on the bottom, Nicole Richie steps out at L.A.'s The Grove shopping center Thursday sporting a loud look and matching oversize House of Harlow 1960 shades.
PASTEL BLUE SHADOW
We love that while most women permanently retired blue shadow along with slap bracelets and Trapper Keepers years ago, Elle Fanning and Nicole Richie are bringing back the retro makeup look full-force.
MIXING IT UP
Nicole Richie pairs her new do with an eclectic black dress Thursday to view Ferragamo's spring collection at L.A.'s Chateau Marmont.
GOOD FIT
Nicole Richie gets her weekend off to a good start with a workout in Studio City, Calif., on Friday.
NICOLE RICHIE
Before stepping out in a periwinkle Naeem Khan number, the Fashion Star judge puts in the prep work with her glam squad.
MOST SURPRISING SHADOW
Nicole Richie is so fashion-forward that she can make something as retro as frosted baby-blue eye shadow feel fresh and cool. Inspired by the star's Naeem Khan gown, makeup artist Beau Nelson used Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Eye Shadow Single in Sky with Elizabeth Arden Beautiful Color Smoky Eyes Pencil in Midnight to create the look.
NICOLE RICHIE
No wonder she's a judge on Fashion Star. Nicole totally sells this periwinkle embroidered Naeem Khan gown, fringed House of Harlow 1960 clutch and earrings by H. Stern. And with those glam retro waves, we think she might be also pitching a new show: Hair Star.

NICOLE RICHIE
If date night had a uniform, it would be a dress with an exposed front zipper, just like Nicole's LWD, which she pairs with studded black Salvatore Ferragamo pumps and a House of Harlow 1960 clutch. You probably don't need us to tell you why your guy will go slack-jawed over it…

VELVET
We already know that the hard-to-wear material is at the top of Kim Kardashian's fall shopping list, but she's not the only one loving the plush fabric. Nicole Richie is apparently also a fan.

Leave it to Nicole (at a Las Vegas party in 2009) to make a sequin minidress look totally effortless and boho-chic. Extra points for wearing tights like the rest of us – hey, it's cold out there during the post-midnight cab hunt!
NICOLE RICHIE
Leave it to Nicole to hit the gym in a maroon-and-black leather bomber, a chic scarf and cat-eye shades (and to use a fringed suede backpack as a workout bag).

SKULL SCARVES
Stash your ratty old pashmina in favor of a wrapper with a little more edge. Nicole Richie and Emily Blunt wear cool skull-print scarves that draw attention to their boo-tiful faces (sorry, we couldn't resist!).

YELLOW CLUTCHES
In years past, we've stripped our wardrobes of almost everything that could be described as "sunny" once summer ends, but this year, we're holding on to this bright and cheery piece. More advanced girls can contrast theirs against bold colors and patterns à la Nikki Reed, but if you want to take it easy, do asNicole Richie did by wearing a butter-colored clutch against an all-black outfit.

BEST DRESSED
Nicole Richie and her little princess, 4-year-old daughter Harlow, make their way to a birthday bash for Ashlee Simpson's son Bronx, 4, Tuesday afternoon in Studio City, Calif.

If you're not a fan of traditional evening bags, here's a cool alternative. Nicole's Simone Camille "Lulu" style looks like a fancy drawstring suede pouch with hand-beading and an antique metal strap.
NICOLE VS. HAYDEN
We don't know which version of this $143 Singer "Keepsake" dress is cuter: the mustard one seen on Nicole with appropriately edgy shoes, or the baby blue one Hayden wears with girlie heels.

MAKING A MEMORY
The couple and their children strike a pose May 16 while touring Sydney's Taronga Zoo, where they fed the animals and mingled with a giraffe. "Can't get enough. We'll be back fo sho," Madden Tweeted.
