    Not so much into painting my nails… but did someone say Nutella Iced Coffee? That’s more my style! (and it looks/sounds delish!)

    My niece is really really into painting her nails all sorts of colors. Do any of you know of any great boutiques doing nail design in Calgary. I kinda want to find out about a great boutique and then tell her about it. It would easily make me the favorite uncle.
