I’m going to be that pedantic one and point out that she eats with her elbows on the table. 😆

If people come to her vlogs to escape the perils of the real world, why does she include so much of her complaining and whining?
Everything is presented with such an attitude. She even looked angry with the soup! She honestly must be such a misery to live with.

Exactly, thats such a stupid influencer excuse for not mentioning anything abujt the floods etc, especially as she did actually complain endlessly about the rain, which makes it even more insensitive and tasteless. I would say at points half her vlogs are complaining (or am I just being cynical 😅)

Poor Holly with that skin irritation. Why do I doubt that she's been to the vet?
I was so upset that they were using Holly, who is in distress, as a comedy stooge, filming her when she was clearly so unhappy with that too-big cone on. She admitted it was too big but put it on again just to film her cowering. They should be asking themselves what's causing Holly such anxiety that she's doing that to herself.

I was upset with that too! Why put any of that on camera, and just get to the root cause of her issues? Why does everything have to be content? Carlo poncing around by the pool. Really. 🥴

Yes, poor Holly was frozen in fear with it on, probably because it jabbed into her little neck as she walked. Really horrible to see.

Just starting her new video, not even sure why, but does anyone else think carlo looks annoyed at the beginning? It comes across as a couple who have had an argument but need to be civil in front of guests imo

I’ve just watched her IG stories from today. I’m sorry, I usually try not to be this harsh, but her tone and mannerisms were absolutely slap-worthy. Just turn off your Instagram messages, you cow.

Agreed, I'd she's asked that so many times surely put together a reel or something saved. She has so much contempt.for her followers it I insane. Does she work as a makeup artist anymore? I would have thought she'd have some weddings by now

She always comes across as irritated and pissed off. And quite condescending.

Does she do anything but moan and witch in her stories anymore? Beside the occasional longing for those quiet lockdown days in Positano without any tourists?
In the latest ones she sarcastically points out noises around the hills, like who the duck cares??

Top Tip Nicki!

No need to act annoyed by numerous questions every day meaning you must patrinisingly direct pesky wannabe Positano visitors to your very basic list of hotels and local activities. Instead, you could not film and post on your socials!! Then no one would bother you!!. It would be the end of all the stupid same-old questions - but also the end of the source of paying Patreon punters who want the hand-holding and the parasocial relationships.

Up till now only 2 things have got to me about Nikki's vlogs - 1 is the opening intro in fake rapper mode that has to go on mute every time & the other that has become a staple here is that make-up bag full of yukky brushes, creams & powders that have been smeared over countless wedding parties from all over the planet and just stashed away again. Talking of make-up she does seem to be a bit heavy-handed & unsubtle even with her own style. Someone was bold enough to say the girl looked better before, in her comments once, & she shot them down 🔥.
But now maybe there's a third gripe & it's the forthcoming BOOK - she read out a page and it was excruciating - a starter romcom. Will be interesting to see how Amazon reviews compare to those of her fanbase who I'm sure will lap it up.

Latest vlog. The excerpt she read from her book was as sixth-form and corny as expected but presumably good enough for her Betty Basic stans - you know, the ones Nicki gets pissed off with when they ask dumb questions e-v-e-r-y-d-a-y but who are acceptable when they buy merch, book the Airbnb or send funds regularly via Patreon.

Nicki's own makeup has always been terrible, very flat and chalky. As a redhead she might be using a mineral high SPF but that doesn't excuse the hard eyeliner and dry lipstick which she shouldn't cake into the down-turned corners of her mouth. She could check out UK makeup artist Lisa Eldridge's tips for "happy lips" on You Tube.

I wonder if N is getting fewer makeup bookings. I've always thought her kit looked manky, whenever she'd film a session it seems more like an anti-advert, she'd chuck it all in a backpack, whinge about how hard it was to get to the venue and always seemed keen to leave. (Sort of OT: My hairdresser said her friend who is a wedding makeup artist is losing work as many brides now have friends or family who consider themselves makeup experts since the explosion of makeup tutorials and content on socials, and the easy availability now of all sort of products. She did hair for a wedding where two nieces and a nephew set up a makeup station for the wedding party and guests who were staying at the same place, with incredible results apparently).

Back to the vlog. A dreary small-fry "New York fashion influencer" visited with her harmless partner, a quick look at her Insta shows nothing anyone hasn't seen before "Hey guys tell me about your favourite view!!!" The flesh tone shorts she shows off under a vaycay dress look unhygienic, perhaps they're for anti-chafing.

What's the book about? I might watch later but not sure I can cope with the cringe. I agree about her makeup it looks awful. I remember ages ago someone came on here and said she is apparently really in demand in positano for weddings and is booked.uo ages in advance? Obviously that was when the thread was a.rave one not like now 😅

It's a novel set in Positano in 1986, two friends arrive there, one gets a job in an art gallery, the other on a boat. N says some events and characters based on her experience, others fictional.

I got the impression that she has paid to have her book published so it’s just ‘vanity publishing’ eh ?

Just listening to the book now.. full of clichés. I don't get why she has made a paper book, surely it would be much easier just to have a digital version? Or just print it herself and bypass amazon altogether? The only people buying it will be her patreons anyway

After writing over 400 pages all she gets from Amazon are $2 x copy. Worth it?
Still got to beat our KF who wrote a 600 page novel at 20 & was miffed bc no one would print it .
However Nikki's cookbook did well at xmas even if she self published, probably bc people had seen her or Carlo making the dishes & could relate to them.
