Perfectly Polished

There's no denying that having freshly manicured hands and feet in an of-the-moment color lets you fully revel in summer's hottest sandals. But let's face it, you pay a pretty penny for this service and the polish always chips the second you leave the salon. Instead, take advantage of your friends! Invite your girls over for a mani/pedi party. Have them bring over all of their nail polish colors and supplies such as nail files, base and top coats, and cuticle cream to give it a professional touch. It's a great, low-key way to catch up and gossip with friends and maintain your style at the same time.
