We’re totally fickle bitches when it comes to our nail polish.
Maybe it’s because when it comes to a committed relationship nothing really sticks. As soon as the salon door closes behind us we nick an edge or smear a corner. It doesn’t matter if we sit for twenty minutes or an hour, apply high or low price polish, have a great or poor manicurist–we’re a walking nail disaster. So, when it comes to a color or brand commitment, we feel totally justified in playing the field. That may all change now.
We are mad, crazy, wild for the color palette and products at butter LONDON nail lacquers. Fash Pack, The Artful Dodger, MacBeth– all their fab colors have us weeping with joy. Better yet, as they say, they’re committed to products made ”without those chemical nasties… No Formaldehyde, No toluene, and No DBP (Phthales). Ever.”
Nothing has ever been nailed down in our polish–but now we’re madly in love and it’s transformative. Those once annoying little chips are now just an excuse for a color change.

We’ve been thinking about just what it is that can transform a sucko miserable day into something better. You know, the bus driver slammed the door in your face in the pouring rain; a defective lid caused coffee to drip all over your new Anne...
Some things in life are sacred, so we usually make it a rule to avoid mixing religion, politics and fashion. Full burqas, nun habits and total hipster head to toe black uniforms are all equally colorless. We thank the fashion gods that the cold war...
It’s about time.
This morning we went to J Crew to return an impulse purchase from yesterday. In fact, getting it together to make amends in such a timely manner and dispose of this mistake made us feel proud. We avoided the ‘meaning to return...
Who wants to live in the real world all the time? A bitch is in touch with her fantasies. Yep, we’re big fans of role-play… especially thrifty role-play. We’re on a budget, after all.
When you think role-play, you probably think leather-clad...

This summer watermelons seem to be the bunnies of the vegetable world. (They are the state vegetable in Oklahoma, we’re still struggling with this discovery.)

What exactly is a splurge?
It’s all relative. As we discussed in Einstein, Mascara and Chicken Wings, it all depends on the state of your particular checkbook or the state of your emotional deprivation, a splurge is a very personal matter....
We have decided as a policy to stop naming names of useless starlets who paint obscenities on their fingernails, hypocritical politicians and commentators who trade in misinformation, professional athletes with time-wasting television specials, and...
We’re savers. There’s not much we can let go of, yes, we’ve been known to hold on to a grudge or two, but that’s not the kind of saving we’re talking about . No, we’re thinking about holding on to things like...
