I am not one to experiment with my nails too much. Most of the times I go bared nails and even when I do put on some colour it is either a French manicure or classic red or fuchsia. To break this monotony I decided to try something completely different yet simple with my nails this weekend. So I headed out for a manicure (my poor hands badly needed some pampering after the torture I put them all through January and Feb). I couldn't be more happier with the results - I came out with butter soft hands and perfect glam nails - deep plum with gold glitter.

So the reaction was (as I'd anticipated) - stupefaction and total disbelief turning into pity (oh this poor girl does not learn from past experience and wants to prove she's always right) boiling down to amusement 'let her go and learn her lesson, we'll laugh when she'll freeze there stuck in hotel room and come back again with cold and fever'. What they missed was, not all of Europe oozes negative temperature in winter. There's sunshine and a winter time that you'll love. Ye
