Not-So-Basic Black Nails

April 7, 2011 by WendyB

Gorgeous blogger Princess Poochie recently shared a photo of a cool manicure. I immediately sent the photo to celebrity manicurist Tracylee Percival.

Last week, MrB and I both had business in Miami, so we decided to spend a few extra days in South Beach for relaxation. I hadn’t been there since 2008, and either my memory is failing or the place has totally changed. To the best of my recollection the dress code during my last visit…
