Even more than a decade later, Nicole Richie continues to prove why her effortless style still resonates.
Back in 2013, the petite fashion icon turned a simple lunch date at a West Hollywood sushi spot into a masterclass in casual‑chic dressing — blending a striped Alexander Wang tank with cut‑off denim and her signature edge.

Her striped Alexander Wang tank was actually a repeat. Still, this time she gave it a fresh twist — pairing it with cutoff black denim shorts from American Eagle, her trusty Balenciaga bag, and sleek ankle boots from House of Harlow 1960.
Launched by Richie in 2008 as a bohemian‑inspired jewelry line, the brand has since evolved into a full lifestyle label offering apparel, shoes, eyewear, and more.

These “Warner” boots have a very classic style, making them easy to pair with any outfit. They have an elastic back for easy slip-on, and the leather is textured with a lizard-embossed pattern. If you want to copy Nicole’s look, pair the booties with a striped tee.
