Bernadette Thompson's Pop Up Shop

I adore the talent, kindness, generosity and everything that has made Bernadette Thompson the well known celebrity manicurist she is today. From Hip- Hop to haute couture, her clients include Beyonce Knowles, Madonna, Gwen Stefani, Iman, and Charlize Theron just to name a few. She is asked for by name on set and has such a lovely demeanor I was excited to see her nail collection as well as the many talented traveling artists some of which she has taken with her on a 17 city tour showcasing her own collection in her very own pop up shop.

I was delighted to meet wonderful talents such as AstroWifey ( whom I found out that we have a friend in common, the Founder of www.polishedgirlz.org), @Nailsbymztina, @Kandiyamz, @thenailpicasso, @hernailsrock, @briannaaqueeno and so many more talented artists (these are their Instagram names by the way). 

Here are just a few pics from the event that took place here in NYC.

I have so many wonderful memories of that day! Stay tuned to what is next by visiting www.bernadettethompson.com for upcoming events. I know her site has been in the works as of late yet you can always use the Contact Us button for questions. There is also a number for details!

Go Bernadette, go!
