Nicole shopping and house hunting

More pictures with Nicole shoe shopping at Barneys New York in Beverly Hills before heading out into the residential areas to do a little house hunting, on August 14.
Nicole and Joel Madden are about to launch an online initiative aimed at helping mothers in the Los Angeles and New York area who are struggling to keep up with the costs of raising a family. Through the Richie-Madden Children's Foundation, fans can now donate much needed baby goods and money to these women in need.
Nicole declared:
"We take for granted the basic necessities. For some families, it’s a serious struggle. This is one way to ease the financial burden, and help new babies have a good start in life. We are only working with companies and products that Joel and I would use. We’re checking every product out for safety – and all products are BPA-free."
