Mummy's little Black Swan: Nicole Richie takes Harlow to ballerina practice as she runs along in her dark tutu

By Kimberley Dadds

It seems Nicole Richie's children have acquired a penchant for dressing up, often being seen in an array of outfits from princess dresses to pirate get-ups.

But one ensemble which her four-year-old daughter Harlow has taken a particular shine to is her ballerina costume.

Looking like a mini Black Swan in her black tutu and leotard, Harlow was spotted running along in her pink ballerina slippers as Nicole took her to her weekly practice session on Thursday.

Harlow looked cute as she wore a pink hairband on her head, while her curly hair was tied up into a ponytail.

 

She was obviously eager to get to her dance class as she trotted along ahead of her mother.

And she even showed off some of her moves as she stretched up to put her hand on a railing.

Nicole was similarly dressed in a dark ensemble, albeit not quite as pretty.

The reality TV star-turned-designer opted for some skinny black jeans and a studded leather jacket which she wore with matching ankle boots.

Richie completed her look with a beanie hat on her head as she carried a healthy drink in her hands.

Her husband Joel Madden was missing from the trip as Nicole came armed with a girl pal by her side to keep her company while Harlow underwent the lesson.

It was a rare day off for Richie, who has been busy recently promoting her latest fashion line.

The Fashion Star mentor took some items from Nicole Richie for Macy's Impulse to show.

She chatted on the show about how she always wanted to be in the industry.

The star said: ‘Being in fashion is something that I have been dreaming about my whole life. I started out with jewellery because it was a smaller project and it’s closest to my heart.

‘And I knew that once I got into ready-to-wear that it would take up my entire life. Once I decided that it was time, I went full force into it and I’m just slowly expanding and enjoying every minute.’

But Nicole admitted that she does struggle with balancing life as a working mother-of-two.

She said: ‘I just have to wake up every morning and kind of prioritize and figure out what I need to focus on for the day. It’s a constant juggling act and it’s just what you have to do.’

Ballet or ballerina, who cares... the other word is PRACTISE not practice. Practise is the British spelling of the verb.
