Nicki trying to stand out in fashion in that sense just doesn't fit her or work for her. She's looked so great during Pinkprint era because she's dressed like a normal celebrity (the GRAMMYs being a perfect example). Her natural look is the only thing that is working for her. The Barbie & Colorful + Aggressive Rainbow has not and will not work for her.
People liked 2010 Nicki.
Everything from 2011-2012 was a mess tho.
The 2011 VMAs & 2012 Kid's Choice Awards were so tragic.
But yeah, the ATRL community sucks for the most part. We definitely need new members. The only decent places are this thread, SYG (sometimes) and Celebria.
