first!
she looks very healthy and beautiful
Her change over the years is AMAZING! Look at her in comparison to her ex-bff Paris…
Why would someone as stunning as her with such a thin figure wear this dress? Seriously, she can do way better. It looks like Rachel Zoe picked out that dress for her and as far as I can remember she changed her stylist years ago.
@Li: I completely agree. She looks so much better now. And this hair color really suites her! Besides, she looks really happy.
Wow.. she is stunning. I love the hair colour so much more than the blonde!!
She looks better with blonde hair, IMHO…
I love the hair but I hate the dress and something about her face looks annoying.
that dress would have looked better with slimmer sleeves or none at all.. it’s not as if she doesnt have great arms to show off!
I see Rachel Zoe’s handwork all over this. It looks very good nonetheless.
Make-up really transforms her face. Without it, I’m not exactly blown away by her beauty. I think this hair color makes her eyes stand out more.
I love the dress, I think it would have looked better witht the sleeves rolled up like on the runway though.
I think she looks gorgeous, and I agree with Li, her change over the years is amazing!
Wow it’s been ages since I posted a comment here, but I have to say: WOW! She looks stunning, better than ever, in my opinion! Good for you nicole!
I do not care for the dress. I think I prefer her more with the blond hair as well.
How many nose jobs did this girl have again?
Em, I agree with you. Too much going on on such a tiny figure.
Wow. She is stunning.
Not really liking the dress, but it kinda works for her.
I never thought she was beautiful, but now I might have changed my mind..
weird makeup.
She looks amazing. I love the dress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She does look like she had a nose job actually! I’m loving her hair colour but she’s so petite that the dress drowns her… meh.
She looks really pretty! The dress may be a bit overwhelming for her petite figure, but it’s a refreshing change from some of the “dresses” other celebs wear.
She’s so ugly! Why is she famous again? I don’t remember…
she really is just like radienttt now. She looks so..motherly…in a GOOD way lol! (not sure of another term..) I just mean ever since having kids she seems soooo much more put together, secure, happy, settled down but still crazy Nicole lol…
just stunning. beautiful.
Wow she looks radiant!I just adore this woman but i’m not feeling the print of the dress and i think it his too loose on her small frame…She should stay this weight,not trying to lose more and go for fitting dress ’cause she’s thin enough to pull them off!Btw loving the shoes!:D
she looks healthy, glowing and happy. I dont like her fringe, i prefered her with short blonde hair.
wow she looks so pretty nice hair too
but she’s too covered up
That dress makes her look like she’s been attacked by a gigantic silk scarf – and lost.
The only aim of something like that in my mind would be to keep your entire body under wraps. Mission accomplished, I guess.
Great from the neck up.
She looks glowing and happy. I love this look on her.
L.O.V.E.
nuff said
She look so much better with this hair color & at this weight.
oh my god, i didnt even recognise her!!!
first pic looks like she has a baby bump!!
gorgeous. weird bangs though. extensions?
Not sure whether I prefer her blonde or as a brunette…blonde perhaps? at any rate, i don’t get over how beautiful her eyes are!
i LOVE nicole’s hair. LOVE it! the dress is growing on me!!! x
That dress totally looks like it’s disguising a baby-bump…esp in the first pic.
Her look just doesn’t have the magic it did when she had Rachel Zoe. If you ask me she looks healthy, which is important if she’s to be any sort of role model to those daughters. I hope her wild child days are long behind her!
Nicole always goes for that boho look. Mission accomplished. I agree it looks like she’s covering up a baby bump again ! Love the hair though ! If I had a skinny body like hers I’d rock and not in a moomoo !!
Oh and the makeup shading around her nose is terrible!
She looks really pretty. I do think I’d like her look better if her hair color were a tad bit lighter.
the dress is too big for her frame.
I think she loooked better with blonde hair. I just think this hair color looks like it’s grandma’s color. The dress is way too long and looks like Mary-Kate or Ashley Olsen would like to wear it too.
The dress looks like a bathrobe with a really busy pattern – I’m with everyone who says she should try something fitted for a change. And her face looks beautiful in the first pics, but in the close-up it looks like she’s wearing way too much highlighter.
her eyes look pretty in the second pic
i like her dress
im glad shes not 80 lbs anymore!!!
Is it just me or does she look likes she’s got a bump in the first picture? Food baby, maybe?
I hope she stays at this weight…she is positively glowing! And I think this hair color really softens her. She looks very healthy.
She looks fabulous! She has definitely gotten better with age!
Stunning. What a beautiful woman.
I don’t like this dress or her hair-cut but who cares, her face is like a little dolls.
she is tiny and swamped by that dress and her bangs
Nicole is a classic beauty that can pull of a versatile range of lucks with a bohemian splash.
Her new hair color looks great! She always looks very pretty.But i think it would be nice to see her in something besides a maxi dress for a change.Mix it up a little lol
Wow she looks so different. I think I prefer Nicole with blonde hair, it makes her complexion brighter. I’m not digging the dress either, it hides her figure…but I guess if you wear a dress like that you’re hiding your body intentionally.
well….the dresss is terrible for her because shes soo small. and her make up is weirdly done around her nose…but her hair color looks qreat. and im so happy she looks like shes manaqed to stay at a healthy weiqht for her frame. oh and she never had a nose job. its the makeup. her nose has always been…unique lookinq.
She is pretty but the dress is ugly.
gorgeous!
Never realized she was so beatiful…
She looks great and I love the new hair color; however I do not like the dress on her (she is petite and she does look lost in the dress).
She looks great IMO
and what is up with the makeup on her nose!
I thought at first it was Natalie Imbruglia, but obviously not!!
she does look very well in these though, she really doesn`t want to loose any more weight!!
She looks healthy, not that i can see much under that blanket of a dress. I like the hair color and makeup though. Im so glad Nicole got her life together. I mean picture her on the red carpet during the simple life days– pudgy, orange tan, fake weird color extensions, barely any clothes on….this is a vast improvement. Maybe this will be an inspiration to other stars (lindsay, rachel z.)
unrecognizable. don’t like the dress, but she looks good aside from that.
is she pregnant again?
the bump is last over from her last pregnancy!! It really hasn’t been that long…only about 4 months. Sometimes it takes months for your belly to go back to normal!
The brown hair is starting to grow on me. What’s with celebs and the noticable face powder? She looks good and healthy.
shes beautiful and at healthy weight but i dont like the dress…it makes her look older
Hair color great. But it looks like she purchased the same nose that half the women in Hollywood have (ala Julia Roberts).
I love her hair this colour, and she looks fab!!!
average
She looks fantastic but I’m not overly keen on that dress. Just not my taste. She could do so much better!
I really like her darker hair it changes her look. She looks very healthy, happy, and glowing in these photos.
Dark hair, soooooooooo much better! The blonde is so trashy on her. But someone please remind me, why do we care about this girl?
She looks great, but isn’t that dress a couple of sizes too big for her?
She gained,but she knows how to cover it,shes cutie
she looks stunning
her face looks healthy, full, not strained like some celebrities. she is drowning in that dress though, don’t think that’s rachel zoe’s work though. she would know better than that! i think she might be covering her figure up too much, she just find something that flatters her curves and hides the flaws, instead of hiding under what someone else called “a blanket” of a dress.
She looks great but whoever highlighted her nose (to make it appear smaller) did a horrible job!
What a difference from just a few years ago. Good for her!
She looks good but what’s up with the Kim Kardishian-esque makeup?
Nice eyes
