Put your (manicured) hands in the air! We’re introducing a W + P weekly special and it has to do with…drumroll please…wait, you already you guessed it…NAILS. The Monday mani (and sometimes pedi, too) will be compliments of Myka Barbato, owner of BUFF nail bar in Atlanta, nail guru, and ridiculously stylish person in general. … Read more
I do get manis on the reg (what else are you going to do after a boozy brunch?), but I actually enjoy painting my own nails, too. I love picking out a color from my collection, and I find the process to be rather relaxing and a perfect activity to do while half-watching mindless reality … Read more
Hi. I’m Ashley and I’m a recovering lash-aholic. About this time last year, I got my first set of eyelash extensions, was obsessed, and maintained them for ten months, but with refills every three weeks (at a price I don’t feel comfortable sharing) and the fear that the extensions just might be damaging my real … Read more
So, I’m kind of an expert on this topic. Wait, that makes me sound like a…..whatever. I don’t spray tan all the time–usually only before special occasions (weddings, vacations, expected run-in with an ex, etc.)–but when I do, it’s with Tiffany at RAW Bronzing Studio. The tans are organic, perfectly airbrushed every time, and won’t … Read more
This morning, I was sitting in Cafe Jonah (one of my happy places…most days) next to two girls who talked smack about people for a solid hour and a half (ie. the entire time I was in their presence). Spewing stuff like, “she’s trash,” “he’s the laziest person I’ve ever met,” “I could give a … Read more
It’s that time again–a list of things that are perfectly acceptable in life. I’ve covered the Olympics (and have since taken back my crush on Ryan Lochte); Facebook (and probably pissed off some new moms), and now I’m moving on to something most of us can relate to: Working out. I actually enjoy working out … Read more
Ladies and gents, it is a very special day over here at Witty + Pretty. Our very first MALE contributor (and hopefully, the first of many) is on deck! Legendary Atlanta playboy, successful entrepreneur, and JC Penney catalog model Trey “Tom” Humphreys is offering up his (extreme) expertise on what turns men off about women … Read more
As you may know, every Friday, I confess five things I’ve done the previous week that some might find offensive, embarrassing, or awkward, but that I fully embrace and encourage you to do the same. This week is a collaboration of my thoughts/observations on the Olympics and I’m curious to know if I’m the only … Read more
Last night, whilst out with the girls at hip Midtown Atlanta watering hole, Proof and Provision, we caught wind that Mr. Ice Cube himself was in our presence – yes, THAT Ice Cube from Friday, Next Friday, I Know What You Did Last Friday, “You Can Do It, Put Your Ass Into It,” and the … Read more
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I spend entirely too much time looking at puppies on Instagram. But it’s so worth it. I can’t even take it. So I was browsing Instagram recently looking for my puppy/#FoodPorn/nail art fix, and this photo posted by DailyPuppy (my personal favorite) stopped me dead in … Read more
