Worn to work today! I think i have come to the conclusion that i enjoy cropped pants as long as they are high waisted/hit at my actual waist. I've done lower but i just think this looks better as my leg has a chance of still looking long.

I kept the shoe simple and looked for something that wouldn't cut off my leg line. I also have a nude wedge i could of added but they're peep toe and my toes aren't ready to let the public see them right now. @_@

Sooooooooooo what do you think of these pants? Honesty and constructive criticism is welcome. I mean, i took the tags off and obviously wore them so i'm keeping the pants but...um...i dunno....say whatever you want. :D

Is anyone else on here a fan of the show "New Girl"? I love it and when i put this outfit together i kept thinking of that quote from the show.

I wore this out on a day date in Minneapolis with my husband for our 6th year anniversary. It was a super fun day filled with lots of delicious food eating, a little shopping and a whole lot of walking. Like, my feet started feeling it even in flat comfy boots walking. I was pleasantly surprised to get several compliments on my outfit from random strangers through out the day and even my husband said he liked it! Double plus!

Every time i'm in a part of Minneapolis called Uptown i have to stop by and take a picture against this graffiti wall; it's so cool. I would of taken a bigger picture of more of it but my camera died right after this photo. :(

The last shot is super bad quality i know, but i just wanted to show my outfit of the night as well. The DIY Balmain inspired crazy pants!! This was my first time wearing them out. I wore them around in my tiny town and i thought for sure people would make faces at me and point "behind" my back -BUT- much to my surprise i got tons of compliments on them all night. Yay tiny town locals! Expand your wardrobes from your sweatshirts and Uggs! You can do it!!!

Alright, thanks for reading all that if you did. Feel free to say any type of comment. It's truly alright with me.

If you want to see bigger pictures, more pictures or info on what i'm wearing my blog awaits you. ;)

Ladies! I am pumped! Yesterday was one of my days off from work and it was a glorious 60 degrees and sunny! I really hope this means spring is on it's way *but* i haven't spotted any robins yet....still, i'll take what i can get!

I know i've said quite a few times that i am not much of a handbag person but this little green suede bag wanted to come home with me the last time i was out shopping. I like how it's structured and a bit prim next to the baggier and wilder leopard bomber jacket.

Thanks for looking! Feel free to say any kind of comment - good or bad! And if you have any tips for shooting better pictures when you can't get away from the bright, bright sun share those too! :)

If you want more info on where my clothing & accessories come from, i have it all listed on my blog

I was in the mood for some neon yesterday so i put this outfit together for work. The pink, polka dots, headband and curly hair were starting to feel too sweet all together so i added some tougher booties and tied my skull scarf onto my bag. Ahhh, that's better! :) I also wanted to add some awesome silver spike bracelets i have but i'm nooooooot sure that would be very well received at work so i switched them out for the ones i'm wearing instead.

This is a remixed outfit (i think? I'm honestly not 100% certain what people mean when they say that...*blush*)! Picture #4 is how i wore this cardigan, top and ring back in 2010! Everything else is either different, or similar but "updated" with where my style is now.

More photos + info on where my clothes are from on my blog

Thanks for looking! Say whatever you want to! :D

This is a hard time of year for me. I'm starting to get the itch for spring, retail stores aren't helping and meanwhile it still snowing out. All my winter clothes seem, old or boring or i feel like, "i should of bought ___ item!" and it's pretty much too late.

Picture 1+2: Wore to work. An all black outfit with some sparkes, a unicorn and some leopard print thrown in. Also an experiment to see through pictures how i felt about cropped pants on me without buying cropped pants. :)

Picture 3+4: Worn on a weekend family day. I threw on this faux fur stole just because i wanted to wear it and we ended up going to a bunch of pet stores that day. It hit me midday, "...Is this weird?!" lol.

Note: There is a picture of me in a very too short dress on my blog right now and i would like to reassure everyone i didn't actually wear this dress anywhere except for 5 minutes in my backyard to take a picture. ;)

I wore this to work....Thursday? Thursday started out a good day and then went downhill. We're starting to have some problems with my son at school...and he's only in preschool! ;_; Academically he does great but socially...he's having troubles (quick to rise to anger etc). As a mom i just want to immediately fix whatever problem there is for him but obviously this is not something i can change overnight. We're doing quite a few things at home to help but if anyone else has suggestions/has went through this with their child i would love to hear them!

*deep breath* Alright, back to the outfit! How fun is this skirt? It's yet another awesome thrift find that i am selling but i had to wear it to work at least once. And the shirt is sheer with a neat Victorian (right? correct me if i'm wrong) print that is in velvet.

And of course, more photos + info can be found on my blog. ;)

Thanks for looking (and reading)!

I'm touching on a whole lot of trends here. @_@ Printed pants, orange, bold stripes(well actually i guess they're kind of hidden by the jacket...), sporty top, mixing prints...butttttt i like it. ;) The first time i posted a look with these pants i made i kept everything else very simple so it's nice to find more ways to wear them.

I meant to take a picture of this top with my jacket off but i forgot. The sleeves have wider strips then the body of it, it's pretty neat!

More details here.

Thanks for looking! You can say whatever you want to, i don't mind! ;)

I love this stag t shirt. I don't even know why except it makes me think of Harry Potter. And it's sparkly. XD I wore this to work today and i was happy. A majority of midi skirts always feel so ladylike to me so i tried to toughen this one up a bit to make it more me.

There's a few more pictures on my blog too if you want to check that out. ;)

Thanks for looking!

I wore the green sweater i added chains to, to work on Monday. I wanted to get a picture with my hand on my hip so you could see the chains drape better but my camera died before i got a chance. :( Another time i guess!

The second outfit it what i'm wearing today. As you can see we got some snow fall but it really isn't too cold outside! Yay! I'm so done with winter. >.>

Also! I have a blog now. @_@ I decided to make a place where the things i make on Etsy, the things i sell on Ebay and the outfits i wear all meet up. I would love for you to follow it if you would like because so far almost no one is. XD It's so lonely. http://nickichicki-nickichicki.blogspot.com

Thanks for looking and as always feel free to make any comment that pops into your pretty little heads!

I've had this skirt for awhile and have wore it a lot this fall/winter but this is the first time i've been able to take a picture! I had wanted a plaid maxi skirt ever since i saw an outrageously expensive one by L.A.M.B, tried on one at Forever21 and put it back and then came across this one at Goodwill that fit me perfect! I love it when that happens.

To help offset the covered up, a bit grungy look i have going on i put my hair up (as much of a bun as my hair can currently make anyway), did up my makeup and added a pretty raspberry lip and a heeled boot rather than flat.

Black fringe scarf - H&M
Black faux leather jacket - Target
Black destroyed high-low sweater - F21
Plaid maxi skirt - thrifted vintage
Black heeled ankle boots - H&M
Lipstick - Mac "Rebel" (way more vampy than it shows here)
Giant Heart Ring - F21
Silver choker you can't see - F21
Black faux fur purse - Vintage

Thanks for looking! I know this style won't appeal to everyone but i felt really happy in my outfit today. :)
