Why, Nicky, why??????
I think this deserves its own thread because it's a shocking announcement and I don't think I can live knowing that I only managed to see Nicky in a skirt once.
Deets, help me, we must start a campaing/petition/whatever!

He's baiting. He just wants people to send him stupid clothes in protest so he can amass even more stupid clothes.

What if he decides that it's the right time to start speaking and acting coherently?

This. Don't worry Cri love, I'm sure you'll see him in a skirt again.

Either that or this person was lying, not that I'm accusing anyone of anything.

Besides, Nicky, really, I didn't give you those kneepads so you could wear them under your jeans!

dont worry Cricri, hes lying, as he always does.

He tried this in 2001 with all that moustache and lawrence of arabia look and were did he end up? in red velvet suits. then again, lifeblood era, normal human being youd say? yes, if you consider yellow eyeshadow and strange socks as normal. not to mention pink suits during IKTZ era.

anyway. even if he decides normal clothes for a while, he will get bored of them sooner or later. and when he sees a pretty leopard print coat at Karen Millen, he will forget about those silly resolutions.

besides, i havent seen Nicky in a skirt and it needs to happen at some point of my life, which will be definitely a highlight of my existence.

You're right...or so I want to believe

Yep, I can assure you it's going to be a highlight, especially if you manage to get to the barrier

But skirts are not stupid clothes, they are perfectly normal clothes. All these jackets, on the other hand... So in fact, it could be good news : no more jackets, more skirts

She must be about a foot shorter than him too? It's just impractical. Silly Nicky.

He should go back to the IKTZ suits. It's a good look that has the best of both worlds, fun camp nicky,but also that he's a middle aged father...
