Not only did ex-"Simple Life" star Nicole Richie knock a drug habit, class up her look thanks to infamous stylist Rachel Zoe, and become a mom-- she's been enjoying a successful dip in the fashion pool.

Last year her jewelry line House of Harlow 1960 opened to positive reviews and high sales, and she recently designed a clothing line called Winter Kate, which borrows heavily from the Book of Zoe ('70s inspired boho, floral and animal prints) and will be stocked by Saks, Bloomingdales, Kitson and Revolve. Check out one of the looks on WWD; I'm not crazy about it personally, but I get the appeal. 

She's also dropping shoes under the Harlow name. What do you guys think of all this? Has Richie proved herself to be a front-runner in the celeb-designer club? Or are you already over it.
