While the question may linger as to whether blondes really do have more fun, Nicole Richie has opted for darker tresses. According to published reports, the socialite and reality TV star recently changed her blonde locks to dark brown. She showed up at the launch of her House of Harlow 1960 Holiday Collection with the new look.

Observers seemed to be unanimous in their approval of the new celebrity hairstyle. Richie herself seems to be having too much fun to care about that age old question. Richie launched her House of Harlow jewelry line in 2008. She has also designed maternity clothes for A Pea in the Pod.
