Nicki's clothing line recieves rave reviews from NY Mag

They were a little much for my weekend of taking my kids to soccer games and carving pumpkins, so I only wore them "out of the house" in the sense of posting a photo on Instagram. My oldest friend texted me later that evening to say she “had to have those leggings." So, overall, a huge success! Especially for $22.95.

I decided to wear this dress with a "What Would Nicki Do" attitude. She probably wears this stuff every day, so I wore it to get my teeth cleaned at Lavaan. I accessorized with wedge Nike Dunks and a hot-pink cardigan. The minute I left my door (literally), I was showered with attention. First, my neighbor who I've never spoken to before in my life (New York, you know), offered me free sneakers. Then my doorman stopped me. "Have I ever told you I really dig your style?" he asked.
And then both my dental hygienist and my dentist complimented my outfit. I got a free grande at Starbucks instead of a tall. My friends, who were aware of the experiment, started calling it the "magic dress," and asked to borrow it. I would’ve worn it all day if it didn’t cut off my circulation. When I ate a mini-size Twix, I felt like it showed in the silhouette, like a snake swallowing a mouse. And so there my WWND experiment ended.

Nicki Minaj, you never fail to surprise me, and this frock from your Kmart line was no exception. I was given a hot-pink, knee-length number with a saucy keyhole cut-out at the neck and a big cut-out at the back. Nicki, you know the way to a girl’s heart with those well-placed cutouts. The fabric was way better quality than I expected. Dare I call it a weighty jersey that didn’t cling? I do.
The top was snug (maybe too snug), but it pushed the girls up so they could peep out of the keyhole, and the back cut-out was a nice flirty reveal of my shoulders. I expected to put on this dress and feel like I was ready for the clurb, but found that it was totally appropriate to wear to a dinner and documentary screening with a friend, even though the uber-girly colors undermined my “artsy pretentious vibe.”
All around, this was a flattering dress and not at all the club-ready, get-some dress I was expecting (or hoping for). Minaj, you are a complex parfait of a woman.
