Coun-ter Cul-ture, noun; a culture with values and mores that counter those of established society

There’s nothing worse than seeing a woman wearing a beautiful sundress, gorgeous accessories and a flowing sun hat while she’s sporting nasty, un-pedicured toes! Who wants to see your feet all scuffed up and unkempt? I know I don’t. Although a professional pedicure is always the best option and a great excuse to relax and take some time for yourself, there are other alternatives just in case your bank account won’t allow the extracirricular excursion.

The Sephora Flip Flop Pedicure Kit – $14  is the perfect DIY kit as it comes complete with the following items:

• Nail clippers
• Metal Nail File
• Cuticle Cutter
• Mini Scissors
• Flip Flip Carrying Case

Once you’ve trimmed, filed and buffed your nails, the next step is picking out the perfect color. Here are three choices that are perfect for summer!

Sephora by OPI Nail Color in Arm Candy – $5 - a bright, electric hot pink. This glossy, girly shade works well for all skin tones and gives toes a pretty pop of color perfect for those sexy peep-toes.

Sephora by OPI Nail Color in Caliente Coral – $5 – This hotter than hot coral shade is a bright excursion that is ideal for tanned toes. Nothing screams summer like a sensuous coral shade and this beautiful hue is sure to sizzle all summer long.

Sephora by OPI Nail Color in Midnight Mambo $5 – Summer is about having fun with color. This light blue shade is speckled with silver and irridescent glitter which will surely give your toes a reason to sparkle!
