This Monday’s roundup has a wide range of stories to begin the week. Our all-time favorite women, Patsy and Edina, of Absolutely Fabulous fame, are back in the limelight after a twenty plus year hiatus. Their new film, “Absolutely Fabulous,” premiers this week and it is a must see chick flick. I still have the VHS tapes of the British television series! We cannot wait to see them back in action. We found an insider’s peek at their wardrobe for the film:

We suggest a great summer read to add to your list. After all, who doesn’t love a memoir about a woman who found “comfort” in clothes.
And, to make it even more interesting, her godmother was Katherine Hepburn:

Summer is a time for beautiful nails in lovely colors but it is hard to keep our nails looking perfectly manicured. We play sports, we dig in the garden, we swim and the summer sun bleaches enamel colors.
Who wants to hit the nail salon on these beautiful summer days? Not us, so we looked into what might be a better or longer lasting nail polish. It is really interesting to see that nail enamels do vary in terms of durability, color quality and chip resistance:

We love great food and are always looking for new restaurants to try. We thought it would be fun to be a gourmet food critic who secretly reviews new restaurants. It is probably not as much fun as we think it would be. However we choose and sample new eats, presentation plays a major role in how food tastes, although that doesn’t make sense. But ask anyone, how food looks on a plate does matter. Now we find that bar raised even higher. Read this article from Vogue on restaurants run by artists:
