"Tomato girl summer" this, "glazed donut face" that - I'm tired. But this nail combo isn't, and it's getting me through the trend cycles as if it's gel. Lasts up to two weeks and you might mistake it for a maraschino cherry when you're eating a handful with an Old Fashioned, so proceed with caution.

One thing you must know about me is that I always have my nails done. My legs can be unshaved, hair can look like shit, skin in need of dermatological intervention, but my nails will ALWAYS BE DONE. This is a non-negotiable part of my routine. However, it used to be a stressful bi-weekly appointment due to decision fatigue. Should I get a design on my nails? Should I try a new color? What if hate my choice and I’m stuck with it for weeks? I say “used to be” because after years of trial and error, I have finally figured out my go-to nail color. Listen, It might not seem like a big discovery to you, especially because my go-to color is literally just a deep shade of red (the most obvious color on the planet that everyone has been defaulting to since 1500 BC probably), but to me, this is a sigh of relief. I have had fleeting phases in the past where I thought I had found my color (beige, white, baby pink, the list goes on), but deep red feels like forever. It matches every outfit, I’m satisfied after every manicure, and the anxiety of uncertainty that has plagued nail appointments for years has vanished. I am free.

Posting stories is soo over. Especially posting where you are and when you're there. It's all about living in the moment now and posting way after the fact if you feel like it.

I've noticed my favorite restaurants, bars, and even products being overcrowded with new people who followed a Tiktok recommendation. I think it's time to collectively gatekeep again and reclaim our spaces. Apart from recs on Perfectly Imperfect, of course. It all stays in the family.
