Today is Sunday, November 22, 2009
Today I am in mani/pedi mode. So we have some great giveaways. Mon's winner has been chosen - Yes to Carrots has been given to a snazzy reader who enjoys wearing her hair up and putting little sparkle adornments in it - which is very cute and something I may think about doing. Jenn, another reader, has won a nice shade of nail polish from our Holiday Gift Guide Sponsor, Dashing Diva! Yesterdays winner has not been revealed yet for a nail polish from Dashing Diva but will be named soon!
Today we have Kiss and of course our amazing sponsors from Dashing Diva. What are your pedi rules for the winter? Do you get them as often do you still have interesting color choices? Let me know and in return we have various items to give you. First off, Dashing Diva has gorgeous shades that are perfect for the holiday season so one of you will win this. If you happen to be in NYC or a city that has this salon, take a moment to get your nails done. My sister actually went to the one in Tokyo on a recent trip as she and I love the one here. But a few of you will win a number of interesting must have tools from Kiss who allows your nails to look glam shot ready by providing you a nail transformation with full cover nails for hands and toes. We have various goodies to give out RED by Kiss Pedicure Kit, RED by Kiss Toenail & Nail Clipper Duo, Kiss 3D Nail & Toe Art, Kiss Featherlight Nail Kit, Kiss Flawless Crystal, Clear Nail Kit, Kiss French Manicure Kit, Kiss Express On Nail Kit, Kiss Washable File, Kiss Wide Board Grinder and Kiss All Purpose File & Smoother. This is perfect for the girl who loves to do it herself and knows that she wants salon ready tools within her reach!
You guys know that I love Dashing Diva. I have been getting my nails done there since 2003 or so! I have always loved how relaxed I feel when I'm there. Going from a super happy patron to someone who has attended their events and gotten to know the team including Robert and Alisha, it's nice to get a better understanding of my favorite salon and also seeing them step into new areas! I was so pleased to see a few things that have popped up over the past few days and had to share it with you!
Jennifer Hudson stopped by at my favorite location on 3rd Ave and 15th street to get her nails done for the shoot of the online video "SpotLight" (I love this song and can't wait to see this). For those who want to sport her look, she selected Lolly Lilac. Of course, one of Dashing Diva's newest members of the team (who I took video of during Fashion Week, backstage at Erin Featherston), Alisha Rimando the Head Nail Tech extraordinaire, worked on Jennifer's nails to make sure they were perfect for her shoot! What a star studded day!
The good news doesn't stop there as Dashing Diva continues to walk the pink carpet in the celebrity zone. Between now and Oct 15th, Dashing Diva has partnered with ABC Daytime and SOAPnet for a nationwide sweepstakes. Whether you're in LA or in NYC, participating salons will allow you to fill out a card to enter. While enjoying the salon between noon and 3pm and/or 5pm and closing, you will be able to catch up on all the details of your favorite ABC soaps including: All My Children, General Hospital and One Life to Live! Winners will receive, 12 free Spoiled Diva Manicures (jealous as you will enjoy skin softening micro-dermabrasion treatment, of course the big finish is a luxurious white willow scented massage for velvety smooth hands) and a $1,000 Revolve.com gift card!
I am so excited and can't wait to let you know about new things that are coming up for Dashing Diva and maybe we'll get to preview some of those amazing colors that Robert was telling me about during Fashion Week!
Much like Elle of Legally Blonde, when I am frustrated, you can find me running to Dashing Diva. I love that it's pink, girlie, always has a nice drink that you can enjoy sips and they're super clean and friendly. For the time that I'm there, I can be in the moment and just enjoy my thoughts. Now that I know one of the master minds of this great nail salon, I love them even more. Robert Cleary, the Direct of Product Development and Operations always has a smile and a strong passion for this amazing chain. I took a moment with him backstage at the Erin Featherson show to find out what's going on with this brand and what we should be on the lookout for.
Legally Blonde is one of my favorite movies. Some people like to draw parallels and although there may be similarities, the character is pretty genuine and is definitely a friend in deed. Now I have yet to see the Broadway production but I was on the website of my favorite pink nail salon, Dashing Diva, and I noticed something very interesting! They are running a deal that not only can you feel like Ms Woods herself and have a Legally Pink Pedicure (which seems amazing - I love going in every other week to get one done) BUT from now through Sept 7th when purchasing tickets for this production, mention DIVA and you will be able to see this show for a lot less!
Nothing is better than getting pampered Elle style and then seeing Elle in action with her cute pup Bruiser. Although I have yet to get this pedicure, I am such a fan of Dashing Diva and absolutely refuse to go anywhere else unless it's another one of their locations. I am partial to the UES but I love how relaxed and professional the staff is and how you have as much fun alone as you do with friends! Take some time to check out the site and the Legally Pink Pedicure Package and then to complete the whole experience - Legally Pink Special Offer. I may see you at the salon and again at the show!
We love hearing from you! Suggestions, ideas and thoughts are always welcome.
Please send all food related questions to Paul, spa and wellness items to Keren and all other queries to Kimmie.
