Nicole Richie's gone and done it again.
She's brought out the green-eyed monster in me with a few more spectacular outfits. And when I say spectacular, I don't mean dripping in jewels, red-carpet spectacular, but the kind that makes you go "HOW DOES SHE DO IT?"
Again and again, she delivers. In every way. This time, on a recent family trip in Europe. She looks relaxed (as you'd expect when one is in Europe sipping cocktails while getting sun kissed) and remarkably effortless. So damn effortless, it makes me want to cry.
Take a look for yourself.
You don't need fashion gurus and stylists to tell you black & white is in. In my mind, it was ALWAYS in. While I could never pull off something like this (especially those shoes!), I love it. The relaxed white jeans, the crochet singlet, the Belanciaga tote, the aviators... it just all works. Like she didn't even try. While most of us spend forever planning our outfits (or is it just me?), Nicole Richie blinks and it just happens.
Or at least she makes it look that way.
Where is that Tree of Life skirt I purchased years ago???? Richie gives us a refreshing take on boho style, making you almost want to ask...
Sienna Miller who?
...and now, to the picture (the dress!) that brought me to tears. The print, the plunging neckline (my absolute fav), the shoes...it's like magic, right in front of your eyes.
You know someone is a style queen when you don't even like what they're wearing and yet still love it!
Get it?
Loose denim, pure genius. While most of us are too busy squeezing our way through the tiniest denim shorts we own, and regretting last nights take out dinner, Richie (even in her tiny frame) is one step ahead.
Thanks to you Nicole, I'm going to ditch the attempt and google some loose-fitting shorts to wear this summer.
