--Rent out a nail salon for just you and your friends.
--Bring in your own food and beverages
--Sit back and relax while the workers work their nail magic.
--Have a smiley face painted on your foot
--Pop a few cupcakes, pop a few bottles
--Admire each other nails
--Make a mental note do it all over again.
How not to have the best martini club evening ever:
--Spill an entire bottle of wine in your car on the ride home. Two weeks after having it detailed.
How to forget that you spilled an entire bottle of wine in your car:
--Look down at your pretty nails. And then pour yourself another glass.

ReplyDeleteomg Erin....it's the Jiffy Lube guy I blogged about!! (the one wearing the headband) hilarious! my mom had him and just laughed b/c he looks so out of place. Check it: http://justchalkintherain.blogspot.com/2012/06/my-thoughts-on-men-pedicures.html

What an absolutely perfect night!!
ReplyDeletecan we have a BLOGGER martini party!?
ReplyDeletei think so.
xo the egg out west.
Oh My Gosh!! What an absolutely incredible idea!!! I'm super jealous and your mani/pedi look wonderful! What shade is your pedi?! And girl, I can relate to spilling wine in the car. I was transporting back and forth as the DD in my less than a week old Murano... no need to tell me it wasn't smart, I know! And my friend let go of the OPEN bottle of wine... spilled all over the floor of the car and smelled for WEEKS!!! The Oklahoma heat didn't help much. Needless to say, I was done being the DD after that and finished off the bottle! ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this sounds like such an amazing time. Except for spilling the wine in your car, of course!
ReplyDeleteBest idea ever!!! Doing this with the book club ASAP!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely genius! Looks like you all had a fab time :)
ReplyDeleteI want to be your friend IRL.

ReplyDeleteHow did you manage to rent out a nail salon?? I want to do this, but I'd probably add a limo or a party bus... None of us would be good to drive post nail and booze night... If I only had money... :/
ReplyDeleteI would like a "how-to" on how you post so soon and quick immediately after martini club. Aren't you tired? how did you do it so quickly? I NEED YOUR SECRETS!
ReplyDeleteYou might as well just come here.
