Nicole Richie Smiles Through Momentary Single Mom-ness

Nicole Richie stepped out with her sun dress, blended beverage, Balenciaga and girl friend for a bit of shopping in LA yesterday. Joel is off touring the world with Good Charlotte — Benji, Paris, yes — but it's good to see that Nicole's looking like she's doing great while he's away. We'd really like to see a little more Harlow, but all in due time, until then Nic looks fantastic enough for everyone.
