Nicole Richie enjoyed a night out with a few girlfriends at STK House restaurant on June 11th. OmniPeace was holding a private charity event and Nicole came out to show support! Nicole looked great in an all-black outfit that was given a bit of pizzazz with her red shoes!

OmniPeace is a non-profit that works to raise money and awareness for several organizations and movements, including Raise Hope for the Congo, Millennium Promise, Build On and more. It works with lots of celebrities like Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, and Ashley Tisdale.

Nicole is with OmniPeace founder Mary Fanaro in these photos. The event was for Omni’s latest venture, “Stamp Out Violence Against Women and Girls of the Congo.” Several attendees spoke out against what’s happening in the Congo at the event, including Nicole.

“I’m all about making people aware and showing them what the problem is,” she said. “It’s impossible to turn your back on something like this.”

Nicole Richie, along with Amy Smart, were on hand yesterday afternoon to launch The Environmental Media Association Organic Gardens program. The launch was held at The Helen Bernstein High School and celebrated the partnership with Environmental Media Association (EMA) and LA Unified School District to bring organic gardens to Los Angeles’ public schools.

Celebrities will adopt gardens at various schools and work with the EMA and the LA school board to make sure the garden is successful - both in terms of what it grows and how it’s used as an educational tool for students. Several LA-based celebs have signed on to be ambassadors for this project, including Rosario Dawson and Lance Bass.

“We celebrate the dedication faculty members and students of LAUSD have to the environment,” EMA president Debbie Levin said. “It is vital that we continue to foster an ongoing message of education and social and environmental responsibility.”

I think this is a great program and perfect for Nicole to be involved in!

Nicole Richie launched her jewelry line, House of Harlow 1960, in Miami last night. Boyfriend Joel Madden took the night off from Daddy duty to join Nicole at the event, which I think it sweet. The event was a private meet and greet for fans at IDAandHarry who had purchased the line in the previous few days.

I love the bright blue maxidress Nicole has on! It’s summery but yet glamorous enough for an event like a jewelry launch. I even like what Joel is wearing and am coming around to his blonde hair. He’s making it work!

Nicole, Joel and Harlow should be coming home to Los Angeles soon. I hope Harlow enjoyed her mini-vacation!

Miami wasn’t all work for Nicole and Joel. They enjoyed time by the pool and had a dinner out with Nicole’s manager, Michael Baum. Nicole posted this adorable photo of her family on her website. I love Harlow’s headband!
