Nicole Richie may be living life to the fullest since the Jan. 11 birth of baby daughter Harlow Winter, but you would never know by looking at her post-baby body.
The 26-year-old first-time mom has been showing off her slim but healthy physique, most recently a Grammys afterparty and at the opening of the Broad Contemporary Art Museum on Feb. 9, where the Simple Life star looked so svelte it's hard to believe she gave birth only weeks ago.
