I've seen the half moon manicure for a while now and I finally decided to give it a try. And I have to tell you, it was super easy, even for a clutz like myself. The only item I had to go out and purchase was the page reinforcers {$2} to create the half moon shape. You remember page reinforcers from your elementary school days, right? They kept your torn pages from falling out of your Trapper Keeper.What you'll need: base and top coat, page reinforcers, two shades of polish {I used Wet n Wild's Sparked and Sally Hansen's Racey Rouge}.

I've mentioned the Housing Works $20 All You Can Stuff sale before {check out what I snagged on my last visit: I stuffed 38 items in my bag for $20}. And it's here again. If you're in NYC, Housing Works is having another sale on Saturday, 1/29.A little background on the sale: you enter a large room full of thrifted treasures, dig through bins and whatever you can stuff in a brown paper bag {the kind you'd get at the grocery store} is yours for just $20. And there's no limit to the number of bags you can buy.Amazing, right? I've walked away from these sales with a Theory military jacket, Chanel pumps and Prada bag.Click more to read up on some tips for shopping the massive sale.
