Welcome to the first installment of Mani Mondays. Yes, yes, very original… I know. But let’s be honest here. Who actually likes Mondays? No one… except maybe your boss. It only makes sense to make the best of the first day of the week as we count down to Friday all over again…
A well-manicured hand offers something fab to look out while you spend your Monday typing like a crazy person, catching up on shit you had no motivation to finish last Friday. Here, I plucked some favorites of mine, including some nail necessities.
