Nicole Richie Dines at Nobu in Malibu Pictures

Nicole Richie was spotted leaving a dinner date in Malibu last night with friend and Australian model Jessica Hart. The ladies dined at Nobu and got a lift home from Nicole's husband, Joel Madden. The Madden-Richie family is back in the states following an extended stay Down Under where Joel served as a mentor on Australia's version of The Voice.

Now that they're settling back into their routine at home, Nicole is returning to business mode as she preps to launch her first fragrance. The scent, appropriately titled Nicole, is due out in September and will serve as an extension of her lifestyle brands. In addition to being a fashion designer, entrepreneur, and TV personality, Nicole's is also in the running for this year's sexiest bikini body — be sure to fill out your bikini bracket for a chance to win your favorite Summer sunglasses with $500 from Neiman Marcus!
