Nicole Richie's Great Year

2008 has been an undeniably good year for Nicole Richie - thanks in part to the birth of her daughter Harlow in January, Nicole says.

"Obviously, the birth of my daughter is the best thing ever. Just in general, it's been a really great year for me. Everything's just kind of coming together. All of my dreams are becoming a reality."

Making things even better - she's debuting a 35-piece jewelry line called House of Harlow 1960. Available at shopkitsen.com, the pieces range from $25 to $250 and mix a bohemian look with gypsy, tribal, flower child and edgy street wear inspirations. But it's not just Nicole working on her own style - 11-month-old Harlow is, as well!

"She likes to dress up. You can see it in her face. She just loves dressing up; she loves putting on tights and bows and stuff like that," Richie says. "I'm not too caught up in her fashion at the moment. I just let her wear what's comfortable for her. But she loves those tights."

Nicole is also making plans for Harlow's first birthday next month. There is one thing she would do if she could escape the paparazzi, though.

"I would take Harlow to the park. I feel that sometimes I don't get to do everything that I want to do with her," she says softly. "But you know what? I'm not complaining at all. She has a really great life. My life is what it is, and people have it a lot worse than me."
