"How I dress like Nicole"....Again!

I've posted before about how I dress like Nicole Richie.  We all know by now that she is my fashion icon, for some reason.  Anyway, if I can get away with something she's wearing, or able to afford it, I'll try and pull it off.  Now, in my opinion, obviously Nicole always pulls it off better.  I of course, can pick out any flaw of mine & to be honest, I don't think I'm as pretty as Nicole Richie.  I mean, I'm not a dog, but I do have to work to look good.  And there are a ton of things I would change about myself if i could.   I don't wan't to look like someone else, to clarify, but of course....little changes would never hurt, right?  I'm sure everyone wants to change or "modify" something about themselves physically, & mentally for that matter.  I would like to be as thin as Nicole Richie, even tho some debate she's too skinny.  And even tho I am a skinny girl, I am not as small as her.  She's just cute and yes there was a time when she was too skinny, but I never believed she had an eating disorder.  I mean every woman fluctuates, some more than others.  I definitely am one of those girls who fluctuate.  I can be really skinny, but if I don't watch it, I could put the pounds on.  Anyway, I've had a smaller physique since college.  I was a little heavier in high school, but present day...I'm good.  (I think I'm getting off the topic here, which is so easy to do on this thing). 

So back to dressing like Nicole.  I also want to say once again, that I there are not many outfits that I have exactly the same of.  I have a lot of the same jeans, JET jeans that we Nicole loves to wear.  I try to get the labels I can afford, (which aren't much!) that I see her in.  And jeans are in that price range.  And you obviously know by now if you've been reading, that I'm collecting her line piece by piece.  If it was affordable, I'd own everything by now.  But her cardys, shoes, shirts & accessories are sometimes hard to pull of.  There just not in my price range.  So I have to do with what I have, which is more than most people.   Like I've said before, I'm very lucky.  Some people can't even afford to buy any of her stuff!  So I'm grateful I'm able to buy the brand name jeans & other celeb brands for example, American Apparel, which also pertains to this post.  So before I go off rambling about the inspiration I get from her, I'll post the pics...then conclude. 
Here's the first pic I got to see of the JET splatter jeans.  I was already a fan of JET b/c of Nicole and when I saw this pic, I knew I had to have them.  Even tho I wasn't sure I could pull it off.  I mean she's so small & to me, looks good in everything.  But when I see something I want, that I CAN get, I'll get it...so I did. 
So in these posts, as you can see from the headline, I'm kinda almost wearing the same thing.  Like I said, that doesn't happen that often, but If I can pull off a Nicole "look", I'll try. 
So I'm wearing the JET splatter jeans, which aren't my fave.  The fit is a little loose and no matter how skinny I am, I still think I look a little chubby.  But whatever.  Anyway, I'm also wearing an American Apparel burnout long sleeve tee.  And underneath, a Fluxus white tank.  Also seen on Nicole in previous outfits.  I'm pretty sure her shirt is American Apparel, just not the same color.  If you check my celeb style guides on the toolbar, such as http://www.jessicastyle.com/., it should tell you what kinda shirt she's wearing, unless it's unidentifed.  Which is sometimes common with these celebs. 
I'm wearing my Minnetonka black flats, which I've talked about before and also seen on Nicole before.  Although, in her pic, she's clearly wearing her popular black Lanvin flats.  She's always wearing them too, and I can NOT afford that brand.  Unfortunately! 
Her jeans don't look as baggy, they fit better on her and look better.  Or maybe I'm just too hard on myself?  Nah!

What I'm saying in my conclusion of this post, which wasn't supposed to be that long, is that we can all pull off the celebs looks if we want.  Even if we don't have there means.  Presentation for a woman, or for me, is very important.  It's not how pretty you are, it's how you carry yourself and put yourself together.  You don't have to look cheap.  (That wasn't supposed to be offensive, either)...it's just that some girls out there do.  And they could do so much better, even if their shopping at Forever21 & not Kitson, per say.  You can get splatter jeans everywhere now, they don't have to be JET.  Just make sure that when you leave the house, you feel confident.  And then you'll look better.  Again, this is all in my opinion.  I guess maybe because if I didn't have any fashion sense, I would be ugly. 

And again to clarify one more time, Nicole's fashion inspires me.  I do not want to actually be her.  LOL.
