Inappropriate or Freedom of Speech?

Yesterday, we spotted these bumper stickers on an SUV parked outside of our community's pool and just had to capture this image. No, this picture is not a joke... they were really on the car we encountered! 

What do you think of these bumper stickers? We all do have freedom of speech, but does this go too far? Is this just as bad as any anti Bush bumper sticker you have seen? Let us know what you think by posting your thoughts under "comments."

New Nail Trend - Minx's Nail Coverings

A new nail trend has emerged - colorful printed nail coverings. 

Celebrities like Beyonce, Rihana, Pink, Lady GaGa, Fergie, Katy Perry and many more have all been spotted with Minx's nail coverings. These nail coverings are made from a new flexible film that shrink-wraps to perfectly fit your fingertips. Some example colors and prints that the nail film comes in are - gold metallic, Cheetah pattern, and black with stripes. To check out the website and see the different color and design options, click here. 

Where can you get minxed? Minx coverings can only be added to your nails by a Minx specialist. To find a Minx nail specialist near you click here. 

This trend might be a little too much for our style and taste, but sounds fun for a change. Would you get minxed?
