Style 101

**Spring is here and summer is around the corner!

Where is my spiked lemonade, straw hat and chiffon maxi dress?

What better way to spring into summer like swapping out our old color tablets for something new and fresh. What's in is my favorite...**

1. Pastels which keep everything cool, calm and collected. My favorites are pastel blue, mint green and pasty pink!

2. Neons: Without having an 80's flashback, here are some neon colors that will brighten up your day. There are even neon purples and oranges that bring something special to the table.

3. Nudes: help with the color popping in your ensemble or other accessories and keep's a look classy.

As far as clothing we have the sleek and stunning white with structured and relaxed shapes. Great for keeping a look spotless or mixing it in with other colored statement pieces.

A Nik_gold trend that I have rocked over the years is the mix and match patterns and colors. I never truly match but always coordinate. Here are some examples on how to work the look!

Last but not least, keep it classy. We have playful girly notes that will blend into our beach wear wonderfully as well as making a going out look beyond gorgeous with feminine touches in jewelry, colors like pastels or even makeup with colored lips and full lashes.

Whatever you decide to rock this season make sure to wear it with confidence and ...

I finally turned 20 this weekend!

Not only was it epic because I have come to truly appreciate life, being all the things I was put through and made it out stronger this year but I also had a lot of people who wanted to celebrate my special day with me!

I didn't have as many pictures of the past couple of nights as I thought I would,but maybe that is a good thing... lol

One valuable lesson I have learned is, yes we are all striving for the ultimate goal in life but enjoy the ride there!

Lifted out on the town

iPhone Customized Case

This is pretty cute.

I recently made a stud case for my iphone but it fell apart

=( Case was rubber which NOTHING will stayed glue too.

Might try again with a different case.

Life has me by the tail.

Nostril flaming tormenting rules

In progression my feet sizzles on the coal

Mold them, soak them

Behind the force blows a constant screaming charge

Revitalized and alert

My voice screams at the heavens

The peak is in eyesight

I soar forward wind seeping through my locks

Sun warming my back

Almost there.

I'm already in my nighties... don't remember the last time I was in my nighties before 10.

Guess it's refreshing.

In The Sun is now playing, my phone is on mute, got my glass and it feels so good.

#NikGoldDesign accessories of course

In jewelry and accessories sometimes the saying "Less is Best" is necessary.

Dealing in the industry and growing through my brand Nik_Gold Designs (website will be available soon!) I've learned statement pieces or pieces that stand out usually don't need anymore items to be accompanied with. That's why going overboard with it can make you look more like a gypsy. I see individuals on a daily basis that don't know what the limit is and in result their outfit is confusing and misses the mark.

Below are some statement pieces I love.

I wouldn't go overboard with these looks.
