For spring, I love a pedi with pastel polish. This luxe one from Gucci delivers long lasting color and shine.
The smooth, streak-free finish coats your nails evenly, starting with the first coat. It also dries quickly into a glossy shine. There are 10 seasonal colors to choose from, ranging from neutrals like Ellen Blush to vibrant hues like Dorothy Turquoise.
Gucci’s Vernis à Ongles Nail Polish is $35 at Nordstrom.

Y’all. Our elementary school PTA switched from asking for donations for teacher appreciation week to emailing a schedule of different activities to do each day. And the activities are REALLY involved, like “cut items out of magazines to make a collage of your teacher’s favorite items.” This is insanity. It’s Maycember. Nobody has time for this sh*t! And the teachers don’t want a collage of their favorite items!! They want money!! I want whatever dr*gs the PTA people are on.
