About

Hey girl, it’s your friend Nina Ruston here!

Back in high school, I’ll admit – my style was a bit outdated. My friends jokingly called me “Rusty” because I looked like a relic from the past!

But now that I’m in college, I want to upgrade my look and finally feel as young and stylish as I am. No more getting stuck in the 90s!

So I created this blog, RustyNi.com, to document my journey towards being a more fashionable version of myself. Consider it an ongoing makeover montage, without the cheesy pop music (ok maybe some cheesy pop music!).

Here you’ll find me sharing inspiration for upgrading my own style, from killer outfit ideas to cool nail art designs to tips for glowing skin. I’ll also dish about sprucing up my dorm room to be cozy and cute.

And I want this to be about way more than just clothes – I’ll open up about building confidence, putting myself out there more socially, and just learning to adult in style.

Look, I may not become prom queen by the end of this journey…but I can definitely ditch the rust!

The best part? All of my tips will be realistic for regular girls on a college budget. None of this “invest in a $300 day cream” BS! We want bargains, baby!

No makeup skills? Limp hair in need of life? A closet full of things you bought at Limited Too in middle school that now (maybe) only fit your left leg? Girl, I’ve BEEN there. Let’s level up together!

You can do it and so can I! 💪🏼

Xoxo,
Nina Ruston
