Iman is certainly cementing her status as fashion’s newest rising star.

Style for Less

Some of us have the tendency to let the festive mood get the best of our judgment, so that we choose too-revealing outfits that forego comfort in favor of perceived sexiness. Get inspired by this season’s rockstar trend when putting together a Friday night look that’s both classy and alluring.

Luxi Nail Salon | A

So, to help lessen the confusion, we asked a typical girl from Rutgers to take a trip with us to the nail salon, Luxi, located in Highland Park. Using her as our subject, we observed and scrutinized every last detail as she received a basic manicure and pedicure.
