Nicole Richie's L.A. Cheat Sheet

You know that friend with impeccable taste who always gives the best recommendations? In our fantastic, imaginary lives, Nicole Richie is that pal. So, when we got the chance to chat with the House of Harlow designer at Lucky Magazine's Fashion and Beauty Blogger Conference, we just had to find out her favorite L.A. spots (in real life). Read on for her picks on best vintage shopping, top-notch burgers, and more.

Oh, and about that lilac hair? She told the audience that her new 'do has made her popular at her kids' school. "They think I'm a character from Frozen," she joked.

Best shops for kids: "Bonpoint and Trico Field. I mean, really just wherever. H&M and Gap make great clothes, too."

Best vintage shops: "Resurrection and Decades. I just recently got these big, oversized Versace pins from Resurrection. They were really cool, and I wanted them for myself, but I bought them for a friend because it was her birthday."

Best burger: "The Counter. They have a bacon and egg bison burger — it’s really good."

Best spot for a girls' night out: "I always prefer a girls’ night in! We entertain at home a lot, so we have a lot of dinner parties, and a lot of house parties. It’s actually more fun, because you know, you don’t have to dress up — you can if you want to. You can listen to your music, and do kind of whatever you want."
