Nicole Richie is one of the few celebrities we know who can truly pull off vintage dresses. By truly, we mean so effortlessly, because there are also a lot of stars who try the look but fail completely. Last Friday at the QVC Style Party, Nicole hit the red carpet wearing a very dramatic vintage-looking gown which no one else but her could pull off.

Nicole wore dramatic, smoky eyes with her vintage style Etro gown
We love her messy, braided updo, which added a romantic feel to the dramatic look
While most of the ladies wore black dresses, Nicole took a risk (that paid off) with her Etro Fall 2012 dress. It featured ruching on rich, velvet fabric and an interesting baroque-like print on the bodice. We love that this dress looks very flattering on Nicole’s petite figure. The silhouette of the dress, amidst all the dramatic details, gave her a curvier look. When asked where she shops for her fave vintage pieces, she responded:
“I get most of my vintage Alaia, Geoffrey Beene and Zhanda Rhodes at a designer consignement store website called www.ifpocketstalked.com. It’s amazing.”
So we checked out If Pockets Talked and found it to be a haven for anything and everything vintage. The site is loaded with major fashion pieces, including brands like Halston, Chanel, Givenchy and more. They have new and pre-owned dresses, bags, coats, shoes that are very drool-worthy. If you are a fan of the vintage, mod, bohemian style, make sure to visit the site and you will surely fall in love with their products.
