Nicole Richie's dramatic snow leopard two-piece is actually iconic
Last year may have been the year for Sofia Richie - Lionel Richie's youngest daughter who skyrocketed to sartorial stardom after a glamorous Chanel-clad wedding in the South of France, but this year? It's the return of her older sister - Y2K fashion icon Nicole Richie.
The 43-year-old is gearing up for a reboot of her 2000s show The Simple Life, - which saw Nicole and her best friend Paris Hilton trade Michelin-star restaurants and lavish hotels for serving fast food and cleaning floors - called Paris and Nicole: The Encore.

While we wait patiently to see what the socialite duo gets up to 21 years after the show debuted, Nicole is bringing some major autumn/winter-style moments to keep us occupied.
Combining 'Mob Wife' glamour with style icon chic, the fashion designer stepped out in New York wearing the coolest white animal print jacket and a matching midi skirt. The sophisticated snug ensemble featured a belted waist, chunky lapels and a flattering fit.
In true cool-girl fashion, a pair of black cat-eye sunglasses, patent slingback pointed heels, gold drop earrings and a sleek black handbag made up her accessories for the day.
Animal print has returned with a vengeance this year, and shows no signs of slowing down for autumn/winter. From leopard print jeans to snake print jackets, fluffy 'Mob Wife' winter coats, high designer retro pieces and giraffe swimsuits: street style agendas have been peppered with wildlife prints throughout the entire year.
While being interviewed on Good Morning America back in June, Nicole dropped hints that the two were announcing a reboot, saying "I can’t tell you too much right now, but we’ve worked together to create something very special and exciting. I can’t wait for it to come out."
