April’s gold manicure — my third with Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail polish strips — didn’t last as long as my previous Sally Hansen manicures, so celebrity manicurist Tracylee Percival gave me a new look sooner than expected.

Like Minx, another long-lasting nail product, there’s no drying time for the strips. Unlike Minx, no heat lamp is needed to seal the product to the nails. [...]

I hardly knew what to do with myself last night now that the Starz television show Spartacus is over for the season. Gorgeous blogger/designer/neighbor Stacy Lomman came over every Friday so we could drink pink Champagne while watching Romans and their slaves being killed in ingenious ways. (That guy who got his face cut off? [...]
