1. Daring Duos Nail polish color combos ruled the 2014 Fall/Winter runways, and none looked quite as fabulous — or are as easily achievable at home — as Badgley Mischka’s subtle yet sparkling gray mani. To get the look, simply apply two coats of Deborah Lippmann’s Take the A Train, $20, to the entire nail as a base. Then, carefully […]

We’re working girls and just because we put in a few extra hours to make an honest living doesn’t mean we need to skimp on our style. When it comes to accessories, we tend to be of the mindset that the more stylish the accessory, the harder we work.  With all the iPads, iPhones and laptops, we need to make […]
