Admit It: Nicole Richie Was Your First Style Crush (And Still Is)
Nicole Richie has been a style icon since way back (well at least since 2006 when she helped make the Balenciaga Classic City Bag ($2580) the icon that it is today), and as today is her birthday, it’s the perfect excuse to look back at some of her best looks.
Her red carpet looks are always flawless, but what we love most is her off-duty style, which is partly down to her fashion label House Of Harlow 1960. With so many perfectly boho designs at her fingertips, we’d be surprised if she didn’t always look like a perfect 10.
Over the years, Richie has inspired us to try oversized sunglasses, carry a Balenciaga handbag, wear a slip dress before everyone else, and she always reminds us to channel our inner boho vibes.
