Pre-Timeskip Nerina sketchy thing

I go though these periods where I cannot seem to draw at all. Everything I seem to try doing lately ends up looking like crap, but I really wanted to get something out.  So I sketched this stupid thing.  I've been meaning to figure out what Nerina's outfit/hairstyle was like before the time skip anyway, so here it is.
Her outfit and hair are actually a bit simpler this way.  She keeps the side braids, but either just pull her hair up in a high pony-tail or braids it and pins it up in a bun.  And yes, her hair was brown before that whole time-skip happened.  This confuses the people that have known her a long time.  Those who are closest to her theorized that she dyed it as a weird way to honor Whitebeard when they first saw her wanted poster.  Of course, she would have been surprised by that since the thought never crossed her mind.   When asked about it she'll say something like 'It was a near-death experience' and refused to talk about it further.  Mostly because she's not sure how to explain the whole spirit world thing without sounding insane.

There is a reason I don't draw her sword much.  I'm crap at drawing weapons.

Here's Nerina after the time-skip, and her design that I just can't stop drawing...  fav.me/d7201hg
