Nicole Richie and Harlow: Shopgirls!

INF

With dad Joel Madden — who’s recovering from dental surgery — home with 3-month-old Sparrow, a newly brunette Nicole Richie and her mother Brenda took daughter Harlow Winter Kate, 23 months, out for a little shopping on Monday!

The trio visited Barney’s New York for some Christmas shopping — wonder what they picked out?

Harlow wears Pediped Flex Naomi’s in Silver ($45).

ooohhh Harlow is SO ADORABLE! She is looking more and more like Nicole as she gets older. I am so proud of Nicole, remember on the Simple Life she was a hot mess, but she has changed and has two beautiful children and by all appearances is a wonderful mother. Love you Nicole!

Love them!

Harlow really looks mixed here. It seems she is getting darker as she grows up. She looks just like Nicole did at this age with the blondish curly hair.

I have noticed how people seem to go crazy for children with curly hair. This is no comment on Harlow by the way…but I really don’t like curly hair that much and tend to prefer straight hair on children…maybe I am the only one.

- miaow on

It’s so funny I think Harlow looks so different with each way she wears her hair! haha ! She is absolutly adorable! I like the cute different hairstyles Nicole gives her. She is always dressed so cute and seems like such a happy child! Can’t wait to see more of little Sparrow!

- Lisa on

Harlow is so danged cute! I love all her curly hair.

- J.D. on

She is CUTE. Harlow and Honor are the best dressed tots I think. So adorable.

- Shirelle on

Too cute for words!!

- CTBmom on

Harlow has to be one of the world’s cutest babies. This is my fave celeb family by far.

- Shea on

Aww! How cute =)

- Brooklyn on

miaow, i know what you mean to a certain extent, although i don’t think it so much with kids. there was a girl at my school who had really curly hair and lots of the other girls used to tell her how jealous they were and wished they had curls like her. i was always secretly glad to have straight hair because i feel you can do more with it, is easier to manage and generally speaking i just prefer the way it looks. this is completely just a personal preference of how i would want my hair to be, many people with curly hair look great like that but it’s not something i have ever wanted for myself.
however, with kids harlow’s age i can see how it is cute, it looks sort of angelic.

- JM on

OMG, I love her hair!

- dickie on

I love, love Harlow!! She’s my fav celeb baby I think!! :) What’s that spot on her head that I see in the 2nd pic? Is that a pigment?

- Doreen on

Look at her little purse! I just squealed! She is just precious.

- Jessicad on

It’s so funny, every time I see Harlow with Nicole I think she looks just like Joel and then when she’s with Joel I think she looks just like Nicole! LOL.

The second pic is just too cute. I see the resemblances more clearly there…she has her Mom’s eyes and her Dad’s nose, all the way. And she has to be one of the absolute CUTEST celeb babies on the whole planet!!!

- Jennifer on

I was never a big Nicole Richie fan, but that little Harlow, is just the sweetest thing. She really is one of the cutest little celebrity kids. And I like the clothes Nicole chooses for her. Not too over the top, but still adorable.

- Kristin on

She is so adorable and looks more and more like Nicole every day! :)

- Chris on

I’m with you Lex, Harlow and Honor are my favorite celeb babies!

- Meesh on

I prefer curly hair personally on celebrity babies I love Johan and Henry Samuels and Nahla Aubry curls especially. I also love Taylor swifts natural curls. More importantly to me thick hair is a attractive. Curly or straight none of it is attractive if the hair is too thin. I just feel that, yeah curls are hard to manage but once you get the hang of it you’re good to go. Plus, people with curly hair are just a blow out away from straight hair.

Harlows outfit is super adorable. I usually don’t like the all black on little kids, but she looks chic.

- Electra on

If you were born with straight hair love your straight hair. If you were born with curly hair love those curls. I was born with straight hair that got curlier and curlier until it was reddish-brown and coarse. I love Harlow’s curls and hope she never straightens them to fit in or please others.

- nettrice on

miaow – I used to love straight hair on babies but then 9 years ago my daughter was born with curly hair and every since then I have LOVED curly haired toddlers!!!

Harlow is absolutely adorable! In the second picture she looks just like Nicole (IMO).

Elizabeth – OMG yes I remember Nicole on The Simple Life and I can’t believe how much she has changed!!! Remember the episode where Nicole and Paris worked in the daycare taking care of the little children, I remember thinking I hope neither of them ever have kids LOL ……. but from what we see Nicole seems to be a good parent :D

- Bancie1031 on

Doreen-I think it’s a band aid. Lol! Harlow is adorable! What a great family.

- I♥CBB on

Nicole and Harlow are GORGEOUS!

- Eleonora on

Aww Harlow is so cute :) I love her little outfit and she is the double of her Daddy. I wonder if her brother will favour Nicole more? I know quite a few families where the girl looks just like dad and the boy just like mum; so sweet!!

- Ruthella on

i love her curly hair she is so cute.:=)

- dazzle on

OMG Harlow is such a sweetie! What a beautiful little girl. It’s so strange, I used to think she looked so much like Joel, but now I am really just seeing Nicole in her. I love the curls!

- Shannon on

Harlow looked a lot like Joel when she was little but she is looking more like her mom these days. She is the spitting image of a young Nicole, who had curly brown hair!!

I think little Sparrow looks just like Joel.

I love this family. I’ve been a Good Charlotte fan since day one and was never crazy about Nicole Richie but I think her and Joel make a great couple.

- Tanya on

Harlow is my fav celeb kid, she gets cuter by the month, I swear!! I just love her curls, what a beautiful mommy daughter pair!!

- Lady on

I love seeing articles about Nicole and her family. She really seems to have gotten comfortable with herself and her life. Kudos.

(And I love straight or curly hair on kids.)

- Jenifer on

Who would have thought that Nicole Richie would have turned out to be such a caring, wonderful mom! She was such a hot mess when she was hanging out with Paris, but obviously has turned her life around and has made her children her top priority! Love this ladies!

- Lila on

wow! i still think she is all Joel. i love love love her hair!

- Lauren on

Wow, when did Harlow grow up into a beautiful little girl? She’s looking less and less like a baby now!

- Stephany on

Harlow is just too cute for words in that second picture. She is absolutely adorable!

- Shannon on

I agree with the posters who said Harlow is all Nicole. She looks a lot like Nicole did as a child! Anyway, I’m glad Nicole is finally feeling better aftter her bout with Pneumonia. I saw a picture of her at a book signing this past weekend, and felt bad for her. It was obvious in that picture that the Pneumonia took a lot out of her!

I hope you continue to have a good recovery, Nicole!

- CelebBabyLover on

OMG she is so cute. how time flies by it seems like yesterday she just gave birth. I thought Nicole cut her hair? in there family album it looked like it. she would look better with short hair I think

- roxana on

I love the way that Nicole dresses her daughter like a little girl instead of a little adult. She is so cute, and I am really proud of Nicole. She has grown up and behaving like a responsible adult.
Too bad that her frenemie, Paris, hasn’t settled down yet.

- mochababe73 on

Those magnificently beautiful eyes and porcelain skin, leave little room to talk about her hair. I was actually hoping to see the hair up in pigtails.

As for curly hair, with some exceptions of course, but don’t many beautiful woman have some curl to the hair?

(Nicole Kidman, Julia Roberts, Elizabeth Taylor, Cyndi Crawford,
Salma Hayek, Alecia Keys, Gwyneth Paltrow, Emmy Rossum, Naomi Watts, Nicole Richie, Rita Wilson, Susan Sarrandon just to share a few that are publically known)

Harlow, Nahla, and all of the other curly haired lovelies, will be in great company.

- BeckyPeaBody on

I agree with everyone else she is really starting to look like her mommy! I swear I just love this family. Harlow is TOO CUTE!

- lilpeoplerthebest on

she is so cute especially her adorable little curls!

- lololly on

roxana- I think she just pulled it back in a loose ponytail for those photos. :)

- CelebBabyLover on

First, I LOVE Nicole Richie. She is my favorite celebrity/celebrity mom. I love how she’s turned her life around and how devoted she is to her family. Beautiful!

Now, about curly hair. I have had natural curls my whole life, and as a child, they were the bane of my existence! I hated my hair so much and just wanted straight hair like every other girl I knew! By the time I was 10, my mom was allowing me to get my hair chemically straightened at a salon once a year, because she didn’t know how to care for it (straight-haired mom) and it made me so miserable. I stopped straightening it in high school, because I decided I wanted to dye it instead, and I couldn’t really do both or my hair would basically have broken off. Now, as an adult, I wear it curly. I still think that straight hair is easier to care for and style, and I actually hope my daughter has straight hair. Right now, at 9-months old, I can’t really tell what her hair texture is, but it seems slightly wavy. Even if it ends up being crazy-curly like mine, I know I’ll be able to teach her how to care for it and style it, after a few decades learning how to style my own :-)

- mrsh on

At first Harlow was all her dad, I couldn’t see one drop of Nicole, not it’s like she favors her mom more than her dad. That’s kinda weird. People’s faces just do a 180 as they get older, lol.

- NikNak on

She’s so cute!! Today she turned 2 years old
