Nicole Richie's Red Bracelet

"The red string that Nicole Richie has been wearing lately isn't the famed-and trendy-Kabbalah string; it's a gold Hamsa bracelet. The Hamsa hand is an ancient amulet for magical protection from the evil eye. With the new season of The Simple Life airing and her relationship with boyfriend DJ AM back on, Richie has a lot to be protective of. Think of it as a spiritual, and fashionable, insurance policy."

Taken from the May 1, 2006 issue of People.
