It seems these days everyone has got “embellishments” on their nails – or at least that’s what Natalie S. says ’bout the little sequins lima beans hanging from my middle finger. Some of my fave nail art ladies, Septembre Andersen, Chantel Bedward and Hayley French, are to blame for my latest obsession with nail art (as it’s more commonly called), but it wasn’t until Kandi Apple Nail Shoppe opened around the corner from my house that I, too, could have blinged-out fingernails. Tiffany, the salon owner and genius behind the designs, does it all free hand. Caviar nails, 3D nail art, zigzags, chains, whips, you name it – if you can carry the weight, she can adhere it to your nails. Uptown girls, I’ll see you in the salon this Thursday when I get my birthday nails… wonder if they can do 3D b-day candles on each nail? That’s right, I’m 10 years old.
