Just some thoughts on nailpolish...

Yesterday, I was watching a segment on the CBS Early Show called "Summer Looks that Pop" The one item in particular that caught my attention was the "minx coat manicure." It's kind of like a semi-permanent stick-on earring for your nails to jazz it up (with metallics!) for a night out on the town. Or you could wow your friends and coworkers with pink cheetah toenails. I mean, the idea is nice - no waiting for polish to dry, no chipping...but I can't help but wonder how this lasts the 4 weeks it claims to. Wouldn't you have some significant nail growth in this amount of time? I can't imagine it makes the bottom of the nail bed look very flattering after week 2, but hey, maybe I'm the only one that cares. What do you think? As they mentioned in the CBS video, you can have this procedure done at Bliss Spa.


Also, as I was walking around DC last week looking for apartments, my feet started to really hurt after hours of walking in my fashionable sandals. So, I found a place called Toe Tally Nails and figured, what the heck, might as well get a manicure/pedicure to cap the day. I was going for a 4th of July theme, but almost regretted it when I looked at the girl next to me who just had her toes done in OPI's Koala Berry. It looked really great! Next time I go in for a pedicure, I will definitely get this color!
