Color-blocking is a fashion term used for when a person wears clothing items in contrasting colors that usually have no business being together, but somehow it WORKS. It takes a true skill to pull that off, and Nicki Minaj does have that skill (or her stylist does) in this PAPER Magazine photo shoot.
Take a look at some of the interestingly-colored pics ... see the ART in all of this, put on your fashionista cap :-) :
