Manicures at Macy’s

Everyone likes to be pampered, although we don’t always get the opportunity to indulge.

But thanks to a great idea from Jolene Wise Silverman, Chair of the Chicago Partnership Board, and Carmen Megheles, a manicurist at the downtown Macy’s,  DeeDee Dziedzic, Sharon Duggan, and Denise Hacke, were all treated to professional manicures.

To keep their nails perfect until the next manicure night, Carmen gave each client a bottle of nail polish, lotion, and nail  file.    The girls also enjoyed their trip downtown, walking around Macy’s and dinner that evening. 

According to Jolene,“ the girls had a great time but I think Carmen and I may have had the better time!”
