“Representing ALL the greens tonight 🥬🥒🥦🌱🍏🥑#NikkiFresh @vmas,” Richie captioned her Instagram post.

Her post referenced her latest rap album “Unearthed” which she released earlier this week. The album is a socially conscious effort to encourage environmentalism with songs centered around saving the bees and buying organic produce.

This summer, Richie’s spent time coordinating outfits with her sister, 22-year-old model Sofia. To celebrate Sofia’s birthday earlier this month, the two siblings lounged in matching boho-inspired sweatpants paired with woven slide slippers.
