I can't even remember a time when Nicole Richie was JUST Lionel Richie's daughter. Then she was JUST a reality star, and then she was JUST Paris Hilton's best friend. Now, if you said "who's Nicole Richie?" I would be like "Oh you mean, fashion and jewelry designer Nicole Richie?"

This girl has made one of the greatest reality-to-ritches stories ever. She has found great success with her House of Harlow line, which started as a jewelry collection and eventually expanded to include handbags, shoes, and accessories. She also launched her Winter Kate clothing line which featured more of her bo-ho chic clothing that she made so popular.

Now she's set to release her own fragrance with the company TPR, The scent will be a "cool, classy scent with an edge."

The president of TPR lauds Nicole's accolades, "[Nicole] has a wide breadth of creative talents being an author, a jewelry designer, a fashion designer and an aspirational figure," says TPR president Brian Robinson, "She also has 3 million Twiiter followers but more importantly she has trade credibility. She's done a great job with her image."

Robinson and Richie have discussed a perfume partnership a year ago, and now the timing is finally right. The fragrance will launch next September.

Richie isn't the only celeb with a fragrance, it's kind of a no-brainer that once you achieve a certain amount of fame you have to release a fragrance. Taylor Swift, Beyonce, J.Lo, Selena Gomez all have fragrances. Britney Spears has like six fragrances, Mariah Carey has four perfumes, and Jessica Simpson has a couple. Heck, Justin Bieber even has a ladies perfume. It was about time Richie jumped on the fragrance train.

In other Nicole Richie news, she just debuted a new haircut. Stepping out at the Elle Magazine's 18th annual Women in Hollywood event, Richie shows off her short locks.

Debuting a wavy blonde haircut with blunt fringe she told InStyle, "I felt like I wanted to take a little length off," explains. So how do we get that effortless wavvy look that makes it look like we've been at a glamorous beach all day?

"When I get out of the shower, I twist my hair and put it up. I let the roots air dry, then I take it down after a few hours. It creates a nice wave."
