1-18-2026 MY INSPO: style analysis - bestie nicole, the heart of the party


happy national bestie nicole week! 1/3 eldest daughter committee of the friend group, with a contagious fomo, and wonderful extrovert to be around (until you cross her, but then that's your fault). our reliable group chat reporter on pop culture (and everything else). when she texts "GUYS" with no follow-up for about 5 minutes, just know you will be enlightened shortly.

bestie nicole and i have a karmic connection where if we speak of an important person they may die. we talked shit about virgil abloh for weeks - then he died from a private battle of cancer. just recently, we were talking about pope francis - and then hung out shortly after he died, kind of baffled at the coincidence. i am eternally grateful for bestie nicole. i wanted to pay homage to this girl, my fellow fashionista, who is out and about conquering daily fashion marketing emails, and snagging the best socks and samples for our collections. my favorite though, is when she comes back to ohio for a bit, and we are due for a night out to kiki.

like father like daughter?

i asked bestie nicole some questions to see, what's the buzz, nicole?🖁

  • describe a recent dream
    hudson williams (heated rivalry's shane hollander) and i were sneaky links. i never dream but my brain rewarded me with such a splendid dream i dead ass woke up with a smile on my face.

  • what's on your wishlist?
    a nice robe from brooklyn linen, another smaller le creuset dutch oven in olive, like 7 million dollars, issey miyake top and skirt
  • your music, wrapped
    hamilton ended up in my top 5 albums. still confused about that.
  • a quote that stuck with you recently
    "bitches be stiffer than a dick pic"
  • describe your fave fragrance
    pink pepper, jasmine, smokey & woody. i've been wearing miss kylie jenner's cosmic 2.0 and i'm enjoying it. i will say some ingredients in it do make me sneeze upon application.
  • describe your best book?
    everything i know about love by dolly alderton. it taught me a lot about all forms of love in life and hose the love you receive from the women in your life (your mother, grandmothers, aunts, cousin, friends) will never compare to any other forms of love. y'all really set the bar.

bestie nicole shared some of her scorchin' fits as of late. what's up nyc!

fit for friend's birthday.
obsessed with the new frames.

going out fit for another friend's birthday.
no one does lob like bestie nicole
work fit
layered and accessorized. the drinks are the cherry on the top

work fit - a seemingly casual fit elevated by the pop of color!


here's some nicole looks from my own bestie archive:

unintentional matching for her going away party to nyc

last year's b day party and drunk photos in the staircase

easter time bar tour. we both went for a casual y2k moment

no need to ask what we're wearing in the group chat, we'll match somehow

it's a family affair. canada 2023

kennedy's summer in the hamptons.
the pose, and the cardigan over the shoulders

layering 101

happy birthday to this girl. love her and miss her as always!
