When I sat down to write about Nicole and her unique style these are the words that immediately came to me:
Glamorous, Confidence, Spontaneous
She is not afraid of bold colors, loves statement accessories and knows how to "work" an outfit. Nicole can wear almost anything and make it seem glamorous all because of the confidence she exudes. I recently read an article in the Wall Street Journal on Janie Shoenborn (Design Director for Lilly Pulitzer) which reminded me of Nicole. Janie, like Nicole, loves loud prints and bold colors calling herself "Miss Statement Clothing." The article discussed pairing wild shoes with classic black pants, statement jewelry with crisp blouses or basic tees and how to mix and match patterns together without looking like a cartoon.
"Whatever attention-grabbing piece you choose, you have to wear it with confidence" says Janie.
So ladies we need to learn from Janie and Nicole and step outside of our basic black comfort-zones. I vow to throw more color into my daily routine, wear a few daring pieces once in awhile (this is the age to do it!) and to work what I've got because confidence is the best statement you can make.

Great post and what a great blog!! XO

Alicia, I love the pictures and the post!! And Nicolie, you look beautiful!
I love this post on Nicole!! You have described Nicole's style soo well! Love it and thanks Nicole for inspiring me! I need to branch out from my dark wardobe and make some statements like our "miss statement"! These photographs look amazing and Nicole looks beautiful!!
So I've officially fallen in love with Nicole. She is someone who definitely has fun with fashion. I've always been slightly scared of prints myself; but this past weekend I actually bought a striped shirt, and I absolutely adore it. I wish I would have been more brazen and bold before!! :)
I love how Nicole can mix "Target" with "Tory" and pull it together so well! Great post and great pictures, Alicia.
