Who: Nicole Richie
Wearing: Diane Von Furstenberg’s Novesa Long Dress ($425)
Why This Works: Are you on the petite side but still want to take advantage of the long sundress trend this summer? Take these style cues from Nicole Richie who looks so elegant in this gorgeous printed jersey halter dress: make sure that the dress fits in the bodice, skims the body, and never scrapes the ground by adding wedges or platform heels. The style is classic, the cut is beautiful, and the dress is a great style statement for the new mom. If you're looking for a cool alternative for a summer function, take a cue from Ms. Richie's book on simplicity and you'll surely be the example of the simple life at your next function.
