Depends on how you want to play her.

You could go AP: rabadons, sorcer boots, Athene's, void staff, lichbane, Zhonya's - This is how I typically build her.

Start 2 wards, Faerie Charm, 4 pots Boots and needlessly as fast as possible then build chalice or finish rabadons and then athenes. Afterwards go in whatever order you wish.

You could also Go AD lifesteal tanky Nidalee: mercs/tabi for boots, BT/BoTRK for lifesteal, Iceborn Gauntlet/Trinity Force for damage/tankiness, Frozen mallet/Warmogs, Spirit Visage/Frozen Heart for defense and CDR, Rage blade/Gunblade/Wits end/Bulwark are also nice.

Last you could go Mana Tank Blue Nidalee: Muramana, mercs/tabi for boots, Rod of Ages, Frozen Heart, Frozen Mallet, Iceborn/Spirit Visage. This build works best when you have a lead on the enemy team and can get your items faster.

I typically start 2 wards, Faerie Charm, 4 pots Then rush for tear so I can have it charged sooner. Boots and a dorans to supplement my early damage and rush catalyst into Rod of Ages.

After RoA I either get glacial shroud or Muramana and then go for Frozen mallet.

Finish off by completing frozen heart or gauntlet if you wish and then Spirit Visage.

I should note that the blue build is ridiculously strong against all ad teams if you get a lead on them. You only have to build armor so you can get Frozen Heart and Gauntlet. Enemies hit with Frozen mallet will have a very hard time escaping and Gauntlet makes it even more effective in teamfights because the main target gets hit with massive slow from mallet while target around them also get slowed by gauntlet.

One down side is lack of lifesteal but if you have allies with Will of the Ancients and Zeke's Herald you should be fine.

I hope this helps.
