Neon Lights

Tropical French Mani-Pedi

Youth is wasted on the young. Just ask any of those pilled-up Rittenhouse wives trying to buy it back from some scalpel-wielding, Main Line plastic surgeon.

Before things get to that point, you might want to have some fun.

Ditch the boring pale pink fingers and toes (you’re not 65 yet) for the hottest look of the summer: a Tropical French mani-pedi. Simply ask your manicurist to paint your tips acidy green or yellow and leave the nail a neutral color. The resulting effect is somewhere between ’80s fabulous and space-age cool.

Wanna get really wild? Opt for a full set of neon French gel falsies, then take them out on the town.

It’ll make handing bartenders your money more fun.

Hey, might as well act your age.
