Nicole Richie's House of Harlow 1960 Crystal Five Strand Headpiece - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

A little over a year ago (June 2008) marked the debut of Nicole Richie's boho-chic House of Harlow jewelry line. Named after her little darling, Harlow Winter Kate Madden the collection has everything from rings and cuffs to headpieces.

Side note: Did you know Nicole will be adding a line of accessories, including handbags, belts and 20 styles of shoes? Expected to be included in her Spring 2010 collection. She's going to partner up with the makers of Modern Vintage shoes and Earnest Sewn jeans.

The latest piece finally available over at ShopBop (pre-order at PinkMascara) is the Crystal Five Strand Headpiece. The price is $170.

Which got me thinking... DIY idea?

I found this gold necklace in my jewelry chest, which looks to me like the beads are almost identical.

The price of my necklace was around $100, so it's not really a deal-breaking DIY project. Although, I'm sure you can find a selection of gold-colored nugget beaded necklaces at any department store or boutique. Possible check out Target or even F21.

... this coin one retails for $455. imho, way too pricey.

Where can you possibly wear a headpiece like that to?

Looks very costume-like to me...would be good for a dress-up party!!!

Wow, that's awfully expensive for such a trendy piece. I just can't get into those headpieces, I think they look silly, and even though they're popular I doubt many people will rush to grab hers at such high prices.

I feel like, if you were crafty enough, you could make it yourself.

It's not something I would wear though.

I have tried wearing those head pieces (not Nicole Richie's but similar ones) and I find them soooo incredibly annoying to wear.

I would never wear this.

I've worn something like this to a costume party when I went as a medieval princess. Agree with Sammy, it is incredibly annoying to wear or maybe I didn't wear it right??

Nicole owns that look!

rek4ever · April 9th, 2009, 06:58 AM

It's perfect on her, but really hard to wear...

It looks so good on Richie but I don't think a lot of people can pull it off. With a price like that, I, personally, don't think it would be the best money I've spent since I can't actually wear it for a regular and everyday stroll.

It looks nice if you can pull it off, but it looks like it would be a hassle to keep on

I love it, would probably never wear it but it looks gorgeous in her golden locks.

I love the coin one. Girls I would so buy that. but not for 445. maybe $50 at most

Its for the Hippie chic look. You could wear it out to a club or even everyday with a hippie boho look.
