Nicole Richie: The birth of style

Filed under: Style in the News, Clothing, Dresses, Skin Care, Celebrities with Style, Polls and Quizzes


Our sister site Stylelist is running a poll today regarding Nicole Richie and which style suits her best- her crazy, single days (left), or her current look, healthy (right). Guess which one I voted for.

I'm not one to knock a person's weight, at least not to their face, but the fashion world lives for that stuff, and let's face it, Nicole Richie was beyond tiny back in the day, like care-package skinny. She was thin by Hollywood standards, which, as we all know, are ridiculous- and hot, but mostly ridiculous.

The couture that Nicole draped on her pre-pregnant hanger was generally crap. Sure, it was hip and expensive, but just because the Emperor says some clothes are nice doesn't make them so. The Emperor in this scenario being played by Paris Hilton. Of course, the photo we're using is an exception to the case, but trust me- it wasn't right.

Now, with a baby in tow and her skin all aglow (that's a little poem I wrote for her) Nicole has taken it to a new level. Sure, she has a bit of weight on her now, relatively speaking, that adds about a million bonus points for healthy, but her clothes have changed, too.

It's springtime in L.A., and she is embracing it, not with the fads of the teenage mall crowd, but with fun, yet appropriate (usually), clothing. It looks good on her.

I think our little Richie is growing up, and she's making it work. What do you think?
