Nicole Richie celebrated her pregnancy with a Wizard of Oz-themed baby shower at the Beverly Hills Hotel Sunday. It was hosted by her mother, Brenda, her sister, Sophia, and her long time pals, Paris Hilton and Masha Gordon.

Richie, 26 — who is due in January — arrived in a blue-trimmed white dress around 1:30 p.m. She was greeted by life-size replicas of all of the Oz characters — Dorothy, the tinman, the lion, the scarecrow and the Wicked Witch of the West.

Party planner Mindy Weiss threw the bash, told a source.

Paris Hilton told “The shower was really cute,” She add “We had a Wizard of Oz cake.”

The 90 guests — including Lauren Conrad, celeb DJ Samantha Ronson and Aussie singer Sophie Monk (Benji Madden’s fiancée ) — noshed on “little burgers and pasta,” Hilton added.

The bash ended around 4 p.m.

“The shower was great,” told Conrad. “It was really cute.”

Nicole Richie has still not commented on the gender of the baby, but according to reports, a pair of $50 baby sneakers for a boy and a $50 Tummy T Jack maternity shirt with a picture of a boy on the front were purchased for the party.

It was the first of five baby showers Richie plans to hold.
