NGD X 1 Yr Online Anniversary

Tomorrow 7/4/13* is the first year anniversary of my online boutique. 

www.NikGoldDesigns.com

Nik_Gold Designs has been in business for almost 4 years and selling online has helped tremendously. Not only can you custom order but purchase one of a kind pieces online. The anniversary marks my growth and the potential to make this full time, the anniversary is just in time because most of my previous items are sold out. Accessorizing celebrities video and photo shoots, hosting fashion events and premiering my line at an annual BE Magazine fashion show has only fueled me to do more and bigger. There are levels to this but there are no limits for me.

 This year I've worked more with clothes, hand sewn and custom, I grew a deeper passion for making things from scratch just seeing a vision become reality, it's therapeutic. I have more eye catching handmade jewelry and accessories and I love making  extraordinary pieces for guys as well. I will be releasing some special pieces for the rest of the summer and it feels wonderful to have the support system I have. Emails, meetings and phone calls "What's next?", or "Can you create...?" or "I need to shoot with your line" fuels me everyday. Nik_Gold Designs is more than a line but a lifestyle of royalty and self worth.

Fashion Outings on a Fall Day

Today was yet another remarkable fall day. Warm yet crisp with not a cloud in the sky.

I decided to go out with my sister and pop my Five Guys cherry, which was an experience on it's own. Especially with my A-1, Jalepeno, grilled onions loving self!

The burger was probably the perfect combination ever created and I could hardly finish. Next we walked around Edgewood boutiques, I work around Little 5 @FearlessWeirdos and wanted to try something new and the vibe of the area was similar to Garden City in New York. Below are a few snapshots of the fashion and reasonable priced treasures I found along the way!

Living downtown has made my days more exciting. Just walking outside my house I feel the energy in the air to get into something, walk down the block and learn something new. Outkast playing in my ears, Starbucks in my hand and 6" strutting.

I'm planning a dog day, since i'm off tomorrow. It seems the only outfits I wear are my work clothes. a.k.a bring home the bacon attire. However, I miss getting dressed and stepping out, hair did, nails did everything did 0_o

...

Seriously, though

Tuesday, I have a date with Miley

=)

Wearing something a little more spunky but similar,

I'll snap a few as well*

Lace, me

I was already willing to try crochet this summer, yes crochet.

I want

1. Crochet swimsuit (preferably nude or pastel colored)

2. Crochet vest/ see through top

Lace, however, has always urked me..

Females not wearing it right. etc.

I have a couple of pieces...

Onezie, leggings, top, think I might incorporate them more in my attire.

I'm feeling it a little more than I thought I would.

FAVORITE NEW SONG

So everyones been jocking for this song!

"I heard it first", "No way! me!"

Shut up already!!!

The songs hot,

I've been on the artist since day one.

Point blank.

Enjoy the music and tell all your friends,

(Pig goes "wheee" here)

BTW: already looking for places like Santo's house in South Carolina,

There are a lot in Atlanta =] They feel so home with my muscle torn t's and vintage jean shorts =]

Remember my post about the perfect jean shorts????

The Thrill

Designs by nik_gold

I finally did it. All this talk and finally action*. Creating my first shirt by hand.

Its cropped and a wonderful print, I’m also making a fitted skirt too. I feel creatively fueled and passionate about what I’m doing. Once I finish thinking about one task three more ideas pop into my head.

I feel like I’m starting what I should have years ago. Like the life I’m living on the side of this one is past designing onto selling and buying and being halfway famous and boy o boy rich.

I have to stop thinking about the alternative life and live it. I already started I believe but honestly not without God’s help. Guidance and patience is needed in everything I have learned. Taking my time on one piece so it’s a quality piece and not a 99 cent store one.

I also made these pocahantas sandals I have ALWAYS wanted !!!!!

nik_gold fashion line fall 2010 is on its way. With statement pieces and classic wear, hopefully before I go back to school I will be selling to various people, even businesses.

Now until then time to wash and moisturize this hair..

I don’t mind thick hair as long as it looks healthy and right now it looks dry. In fact I miss my bowl cut from my freshman year, first semester. So I will wash deep conditions and leave in condition and curl. Don’t worry I have my heat protector, but most of all I need to feel that healthy body and movement then I’ll leave it alone for a week =]

Hair and clothes, shoes???

Eh, I’ll stick to aspiring to buy my first pair of christian louboutins. =]

That’s it for now, still job hunting and such, I need money to buy cloth!! Pray for me and mine, I pray for my readers =]

                   This is only a start.
