Nicole Richie's Interview with Philadelphia Style Magazine!

Nicole Richie recently sat down with actress, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for a Philadelphia Style Magazine interview and photo shoot and we loved the article so much we just had to share! We're pretty much obsessed with Nicole and her amazing style!  Below are some of our favorites from the interview.  Visit phillystylemag.com to check out the entire article and find out what style means to Nicole, her fashion inspiration & much more! (plus see many more amazing photos taken at her Spring 2014 Philadelphia Magazine Cover Shoot.)

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: Let’s talk about something we both love: fashion. Describe your style for me.

Nicole Richie: I’ve always been someone who’s extremely relaxed in my everyday life. I’m not the girl who can wear awful seven-inch heels all night. I keep it simple—I consider myself to be a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl who just accessorizes a lot. But I try to focus less on the actual items and more on the way they make me feel. I like color around my face because it does something to me emotionally. I don’t like to wear black because it brings me down.

RHW: You have such an amazing innate style. Vogue even said that you exemplify the LA vintage/SoCal look. Who did you get your sense of style from?

NR: My mom. She had this huge bathtub, and I’d sit in it and watch her get her hair and makeup done. There were just shelves of Chanel bags and vintage Azzedine Alaïa skirts and the craziest outfits, because she was going out with my dad every night. And I’d just watch her and I’d think to myself, That’s what I want to look like when I’m older.

RHW: How did you initially get into fashion?
NR: Back in the ’80s, my dad had a costume designer named Edna, and she would make me matching tour outfits out of his excess fabric. We’re talking jewels and sequins, very flashy. She’d let me come to work with her in downtown LA, and she showed me how she makes all these costumes. When I started competitively figure skating when I was 9, she and I designed all of my costumes together, and I just knew that it was something I wanted to do.

 

What about your daughter, Harlow? Is she into fashion?
NR: She’s more of an artist. She’s into playing with makeup; she loves doing her hair and putting outfits together. She’s just so feminine—and way more girlie than me.

What else inspires you?
NR: I’m hugely inspired by the ’60s and the ’70s. I just love the music of that time and the overall freedom of that era. I love that the idea of clashing didn’t really exist. You could mix prints on prints, you could mix fabrics and colors—and it was more about the way you felt than about the label and trends. That’s something that I’ve always gravitated toward, and that’s something I’ve always tried to bring to House of Harlow and my QVC line.

What about your collection with QVC?
NR: QVC is nuts. It’s so big that every time I go to the headquarters in West Chester, I think it’s like Jurassic Park, only without the dinosaurs. QVC is just so in tune with its customers, and it’s something totally different than House of Harlow in that respect. When you go in there as a designer, you have to focus on who their customer is. Things like what their needs are, what fabrics they’re drawn to, their likes and dislikes, down to what’s their climate. It’s just a totally different world for me.

The Best Advice My Mother Ever Gave Me...

$

In Honor of Mother's Day we asked a few of our friends at the Q to tell us, "What is the Best Advice Your Mother Ever Gave You?" Share your advice in the comments below!

Mally:

“The best advice my mother gave me is to treat EVERYONE like a superstar. Whether you are meeting someone for the first time, or you've known that person your entire life, everyone deserves to be treated with respect and kindness.”

 

Joan Rivers:

"My wonderful mother Beatrice"

"Our family in Larchmont: me on the left with my father, mother and sister, Barbara."

"My daughter Melissa and I."

“Family is the most important thing you’ll ever have in your life. Hold them dear to your heart always”

 

Lori Goldstein:

"The best advice my mother ever shared with me, was the importance of manners. I take that wisdom with me always and forever..."

 

Renee Greenstein:

"Mother’s Day always brings me fond memories of my father.  He fulfilled the role of both mother and father in my life, and it’s him who immediately comes to mind this time of year. He was a chef who taught me how to make blackberry deep dish, and how to carve a turkey and put it back together. He made me feel like Cinderella; like Daddy’s princess who could do anything she set her mind to. I was actually blessed to have another mother figure enter my life, my mother-in-law Bea. After my father’s passing, she provided the kind of love and support that only a mother could provide. To this day, she is my largest cheerleader! Sometimes motherhood comes to us in non-traditional ways. On Mother’s Day, let’s remember to also celebrate those who fulfill the role of Mom even though that may not be what we call them."

 

Tara McConnell:

“As much as my mom has inspired so many of my recipes -- and even the idea behind temp-tations itself -- the best advice she ever gave me actually has nothing to do with cooking. But it has everything to do with life. From the time I was little, my mom always told me: In everything you do, act as if someone is watching you. That way, you'll make choices you can stand up for and live a life you can be proud of. It's a simple thought, but harder than it sounds! Still, it's served me well for my whole life. Love you, mom!”

 

Judith Ripka:

“I often remember the walks my mother and I would take around the neighborhood when I was a young girl. She taught me to see the beauty in all the little things around us, no matter how ordinary they might appear to be.   Even recognizing the details of the buildings we walked past was a result of her unique way of observing her surroundings, and her influence can be seen throughout my collections even today.  Consistent with her outlook on life, one of my mother’s favorite expressions was “You can look back, but don’t stare.”   It reminds me to stay in the solution rather than dwelling on the past, and that has turned out to be great advice, both personally and professionally.


Josie Maran:

"My mama taught me to believe in my dreams. She believed in me and that allowed me to believe in me and my dreams. Thanks mom!"


Best Advice From Mom

Our hosts are getting ready to celebrate Mother's Day by sharing the best advice their mom's ever gave them. Take a peek below!  

Mary Beth Roe

She taught me how to be a godly woman by being a living example. I'm so grateful that she was my Mom and best friend!

Courtney Cason

At the end of the day all you have is your name. Make sure you're the best person you can be and do yourself proud.

Shawn Killinger

“You give your kids two things…roots and wings"

Dan Wheeler

My mom always told me that with God's help I could do whatever I put my mind to BUT to always, always be grateful for all my blessings!”

Rachel Boesing

"Always remember, we are all connected."

 

David Venable

My mother, Sarah, is my biggest cheerleader!  She has always told me that through hard work and determination ... I can achieve anything."  "I love you with all my heart, Mom!

 

Carolyn Gracie

"I adore my Mom...she is SO smart and the older I get, the smarter SHE gets! We talk on the phone nearly every day and she has given me tons of great advice over the years. I think the best advice from mom has been concerning being married. My husband and I have been married for 25 years, and like most marriages we've hit our rough spots along the way here and there. Mom always advised me to hang in there, be patient, to compromise when necessary and to LISTEN. Also to keep finding ways to laugh and have fun together. She also practices what she preaches.  She and Dad have been married for nearly 57 years!"

 

Sandra Bennett

Growing up my mom always said, "Where there is a will, there is a way." I heard it so many times as a kid that I ignored it. However, as an adult, I have thought of those words countless times whenever I have felt like I couldn't do something. And she was right! Instead of giving up, there usually is a way. 

Gabrielle Kerr

“All my life my mother has given me spot on advice (too bad it took me until my thirties to start following it!).  My mom always encouraged me to see as much of the world as possible before having kids.  That's exactly what I did and I'm excited to return to some of my favorite places with my own family!”

 

Albany Irvin

“We were always moving around when I was growing up so my Mom always told us that kindness counts. You never know where someone may be in their life or what they might be going through, so always be kind and open to all people.”

Jane Treacy

It’s hard to choose just one. My mother always had the perfect thing to say no matter what was going on. One of my favorites is, “too much human energy is wasted upon worrying about things that never happen!”

Nancy Hornback

“The best advice my mom gave me was when I was leaving for Asia. She said, “keep your palate open”.
