Nicole Richie attends Eli Broad Contemporary Art Museum opening; says Harlow is doing 'great'

Nicole Richie and rocker boyfriend Joel Madden (not pictured), 28, attended the Broad Contemporary Art Museum opening at LACMA held last evening in Los Angeles, CA. The 26-year-old reality star wore an ‘H’ necklace in honor of daughter Harlow Winter Kate, 4 weeks. Although the couple enjoyed a night out, their little girl was not far from their minds — after Nicole told an Us reporter that Harlow was doing, "Really great, thank you," Joel remarked at 11:40 pm that,

We have to get home! [Harlow] only sleeps three hours at a time. She’s withGrandma now, but if she wakes up…

She just looks great. Happy and healthy!
Can’t wait to see Harlow!

She looks really great, she looks better now than before she had Harlow, at least she’s not as skinny as she used to.

- Stéph on February 10th, 2008

She looks good. Thank god she isnt that skinny anymore. Now she finally looks healthy.

- Stefanie on February 10th, 2008

Nichole looks fabulous, healthy and happy. Pregnancy really suited her.

- Daze on February 10th, 2008

She looks wonderful! Nice to see her with a chest, haha. I love the H necklace. I also like that the baby is at home with grandma!

- Pam on February 10th, 2008

Wow! Nicole looks amazing – a little tired though! She’s gorgeous, can’t wait to see Harlow, I bet she’s a cutie!

- Kate on February 10th, 2008

She looks gorgeous, Harlow’s with her grandma. Awwwhhh it is nice having your mothers around, both of mine sure help out a lot. =)

Love the necklace, I think it’s a great personal touch! Anyone know where I can get one? Thanks

- Andy on February 10th, 2008

Nicole looks great, her weight looks healthy like this. Her makeup looks good too. It seems she recovered good from childbirth, she has been seen out and about a lot the past month. I have always liked her, can’t wait to see the baby.

God brought Harlow into this world to save Nicole’s life! She looks healthy and beautiful! Love her and I really, really want to see Harlow!! lol

- Doreen on February 10th, 2008

Nicole looks great, really happy and healthy! This is the best she’s looked ever in my opinion!! Isn’t Patricia Arquette’s daughter’s name Harlow too?

Sarah’s note: Yes.

- Ashley on February 10th, 2008

Nicole looks really great. I am glad she has found peace and happiness with Harlow and Joel. I love the necklace as well, it’s a really great idea!

- Elyse on February 10th, 2008

Do we know who designed the necklace??

- brooke on February 10th, 2008

Wow! She looks so good. Yeah, she’s lost most of the pregnancy weight, but she looks so much healthier. I think a woman with curves is the most beautiful, sexiest thing in the world. She does look a little tired, though.

- Dana on February 10th, 2008

Nicole is definitely glowing. Glad to see her happy.

- jasmine on February 10th, 2008

Wow – -

I’m not sure whose are bigger, hers or Christina’s. They both look happy and healthy, and while they haven’t “lost the baby weight”, it’s only a month post-partum. They are taking it easy and I hope they’re all doing well!

- Gabrielle on February 10th, 2008

i can see that look of wisdom & experience in her eyes. she has matured with her motherhood. it’s beautiful to see. nice that she’s not out on the town, whooping it up already like some other celeb moms have in the past. i also appreciate that harlow is with her grandma.

- sewathomemama on February 10th, 2008

I LOVE the necklace too! I hope someone knows who designed it/where she got it!

- Aimee B on February 10th, 2008

She got her necklace at Barneys
http://www.barneys.com/b/browse/product.s?productId=774936&source=category&index=7&prodIndex=7&listSize=13&query=9768&ds

But it’s 1 250.00$ !!! I am trying to find a ”cheaper” version

Sarah’s note: Oh, it’s by Tobey Maguire’s wife.

- Maryse on February 10th, 2008

I’m not sure if that make up on her eyes is not very flattering, but she looks SO tired!

- Allison on February 10th, 2008

She looks absolutely amazing, though exhausted! Can’t wait until we see pics of Harlow – I’m sure she’s a beauty!

- Erin on February 10th, 2008

She looks beautiful. I love her dress and hair. But, she doesn’t look so good. Tired, perhaps. Being a new mom and all, you don’t get the sleep that you clamour for and all. Her eyes are usually pretty alert. That’s all that I will say.

Good luck to her.

- Becky on February 10th, 2008

For a woman with a baby who only sleeps 3 hours at a time, she looks FANTASTIC! It’s amazing how much grace and poise she has gained since getting pregnant and having Harlow (I’m still so in love with her name). You can almost see how much more centered she is. I’m anxious to see the little angel but I respect her and Joel immensely for keeping her to themselves for a little bit longer. They honestly seem to be madly in love with her and each other. Best wishes and all the luck in the world to the three of them.

- Grayson's Girl on February 11th, 2008

She looks a bit tired, but very beautiful. I really hope she doesn’t lose any more weight – she looks so much better now than she did before she was pregnant. I cannot wait to see Harlow – is there any news of when we might see photos of her?!

- zaraB on February 11th, 2008

UPDATE: The necklace is designed by celeb mom JENNIFER MEYER. Check out her line on the Barney’s website. Unfortunately the necklace is $1250.00!

- Andy on February 11th, 2008

I have a similar necklace – though I have four charms for my four babies! I spied my necklace on a People magazine cover — Marcia Cross was wearing it shortly after her twins arrived. My sweet husband located the designer (People’s Style Editor helped). When I was in the hospital after Asher (#4!) was born he surprised me with the necklace.

Anyhow, here’s the info:

Helen Ficalora – she has stores in Beverly Hills and NYC – but you can order online. The price for a yellow gold charm is $105 and white gold and pink gold is $115. She also has ones available with small diamonds and sells chains and other cool charms.

- marlee on February 11th, 2008

Thanks Sarah thats what I thought. It made me remember that when Paris Hilton was saying how Nicole is so hip, nobody’s baby’s name is Harlow, I was thinking.. Patricia Arquette’s is! lol

- Ashley on February 11th, 2008

A similar necklace by Nashelle can also be found at winknyc.com for $68. It’s 14 karat gold filled, much better than plated, but way more affordable than solid, and really cute!
