Watch: Nicky Hilton Gushes Over Motherhood: "It's Heaven"

Nicky Hilton is one stylish mama.

E! News' Catt Sadler exclusively sat down with the heiress at Carolina Herrera's fashion show Monday, where Nicky revealed how she got back in shape after giving birth just 10 week ago. "I really didn't gain too much weight during my pregnancy," said Nicky, proud mom of daughter Lily Grace Rothschild. "I really looked after myself and had a healthy diet and [kept] working out."

And though she's back on the fashion scene, most days, Nicky stays at home with her mini-me. "I always time everything to leave during a naptime so I'm not missing anything," she explained.

Motherhood is everything Nicky dreamed it would be (although a few sleepless nights have kept her from dreaming lately). "I love it! I love it!" she said. "I have an alarm clock for the next 18 years, about 5:30 a.m. every single day. But I love it! Waking up to that face—it's heaven."

Of course, Nicky was also excited to wake up Monday and see Carolina's collection. "She's so timeless, classic and elegant," she said of the iconic fashion designer. "To be here at the Frick on a Monday morning is just a great way to start off the week."

Meanwhile, Carolina described her latest line as "glamorous," telling E! News, "This collection is for the woman of today." To be a modern woman, Carolina said, is to be "effortless" and wear clothes with ease. "When you move easily in clothes it looks much better because it isn't forced. This collection is all about that."
