Welcome!

Welcome to Hemlines and Heels!  This is a blog about fashion and my personal styling.

My name is Nikki, and I have always been a lover of fashion.  I graduated college with a degree in fashion merchandising, and have worked in retail for years.   I am also a graphic designer with my own business.  Working in retail can be really grueling, with long hours on your feet, late nights and early morning.  My favorite part of retail was working with customers who really needed help with a specific outfit for an event, or helping to plan for a trip, or just needing an updated look.

I love fashion, and I don't believe that just because you want to look great means you have to spend a lot of money.  I don't own a lot of designer things, and I love mixing higher end and lower end to get unique looks.

I hope you will bear with me as I develop this new blog and project.  This blog is going to be devoted to fashion and personal style, along with some of my personal fashion tips, my favorite items, trends, maybe some celebrity looks, some looks for less... there is going to be a lot going on!

I am really excited to start this new venture and am hoping you will keep checking back for more updates!
