Okay last day of prep before getting sworn in so I have to hustle today! I booked an appointment at Spruce for a manicure a while ago in preparation for today and it was time! I got over to the shop a few minutes before my appointment and was able to quickly find a parking space on the street. (I love parking apps that let me use my debit card to park!) I paid the meter then walked up the street into the shop.
I booked the top manicure with a hot stone massage I figured I’d want a little bit of pampering. At first I got lots of lotion and an arm massage, then a hot stone massage, then a sugar scrub. My arms felt baby soft it was time to move onto painting my nails.
I choose to get a French Manicure I wanted elegance and style. (Confession. My nails are really short. I had a botched SNS nail job over the summer so my nails are still a little weak.) My manicurist was amazing and the salon is so much better and healthier on the chemical front than most. I really appreciate that they are trying to be more safe for my body/nails.
After that I walked around a little more. I went in and out of the clothing boutique Kismet where I bought the most beautiful pink suede jacket! Then wandered into 1215; a coffee and wine bar! OMG could it get any better. Who doesn’t love coffee and wine? The atmosphere is great. It’s like the most chic, fun and relaxed atmosphere you could find. I would happily go back and keep sipping coffee there all day long! (For those that might ask I got a Ginger Latte.)
After drinking my latte I headed back to my car and began the trip home.
