DETAILS EMERGE ON NIC'S PILOT

Posted Dec 26 2009 @ 01:09 PM

Nicole Richie and boyfriend Joel Madden were photographed doing some last-minute Christmas shopping in West Hollywood on December 22, making a stop at Starbucks before stopping by Roseark jewelry boutique and then heading to lunch at Hugo's Restaurant. Going for a semi-incognito (yet still super stylish, of course) look, Nicole started with a wide-brimmed black hat and oversized round sunnies that she paired with a leopard print blouse (check out Rebecca Taylor's Leopard Fairytale Top in Chocolate) and Paige Premium Denim's Laurel Canyon Jean in Beachwood. On the accessory front, Nic grabbed a quilted chain bag (I love the studded look of Novella Royale's Mister Handbag in Black) along with a gauzy white scarf (check out the shredded detailing on Raw 7's Short Shredded Scarf in Grey) and a pair of black Minnetonka Moccasin boots. What do you think of Nicole's low-key look here readers... is this something that you could see yourself wearing, or is this one of the 'fits that only NR can pull off? As I'm sure you know, Nicole is working on developing a half-hour comedy pilot for ABC that she will also star in, and new details have emerged about the direction of the show. Says a source, "The pilot centers around a professional woman with complicated family relationships who is struggling to figure out what role she’ll take as her life and her family evolve." Sounds very similar to Ms. Richie's real life situation, don't you think? Will any of you out there be tuning in? I think I definitely will be!
