Manicure Monday – A Monet Impressionist Floral Manicure

March 25, 2013 by afrobella 11 Comments

Manicure Monday – A Monet Impressionist Floral Manicure

And when I minored in art in college, my focus was ceramics. Handbuilding, to be specific. Precision and detail work has never been…

  Every time I go to Brooklyn, I have the BEST time. I know so many amazingly talented and cool people who live there. So many talented folks who make New York the one of a kind city that it is, represent Brooklyn. And on my last visit, I got to go to Polish Bar…

Get Shellac Manicures at the Taste of Chicago!

Once you experience a no-chip manicure, it’s SO hard to go back. Once you’ve discovered the freedom of perfectly dry, manicured nails within a second of having finished painting them, once you’re able to get your money out of your wallet post-mani without destroying your nails….you’re HOOKED. And it lasts for two weeks which makes…

Manicure Trend Du Jour — Chicago Blues

If Chicago were a color, apparently it would be blue (although judging from the sky today, gray might be more apropos). Within recent months not one, but two different popular establishments here have created very different shades of nail polish to pay homage to the Windy City. And both nailpolishes are blue. And as fashionable…
