Linda Evangelista once said she and her colleagues "don’t wake up for less than $10,000 a day," and Naomi Campbell’s ongoing antics could have us thinking they’re all PDA-chucking hotheads. The truth is, though, models are just like us. No, their thighs aren’t as thick, hair not as stringy, and walk not as skanky as ours, but on the inside, we’re basically twins! Sorry, models. Yet knowing how to smile with your eyes has its benefits, because it’s Model Mondays at Lace Nail Lab.

Yes, you models already get into clubs sooner than the regular folk, and you get to date hotter (and richer) guys, but South Beach’s chicest nail boutique is adding another perk to your utterly amazing list. Each and every Monday, models with comp card in hand get 20 percent off of all services. That’s right — lash extensions, facials, waxing, and of course the famous manis and pedis all at a discount. Bookers and agents get the same deal (don’t they always?). Noncatwalkers are welcome, and leave your self-doubt at the door, because once you’re inside this über-girly nirvana of pink and white, the playing field is leveled and everyone is in the same ferosh club. The shop is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Call 305-604-0111.
