steal her look: Nicki Minaj

She earned the respect of Kanye West and Jay Z, and is a legitimate solo artist with a record of her own. Nicki Minaj is not only a queen of rhymes, she is an out of this world fashion icon. To quote the always original Nicki, "You should never be afraid to become a piece of art, it's exhilarating." Nicki professes that her essential fashion item is a pair of flat knee-high boots, so we created an outfit inspired by Miss Minaj, featuring BC Footwear's "In The Mood" boots. And of course we had to include lots of tricked out accessories and Nicki's trademark Barbie pink.
