Nadine Ferber was a publicist at TIME Magazine before she launched her first venture, a stylish shop in New York’s west village called Mick Margo that quickly became the darling of the city’s fashion editors and style-setters. In 2010, she moved on to the beauty sphere, opening a nail salon with co-founder Adair Ilyinsky called TenOverTen that quickly became a sensation.
The salon was really a response to what Ferber and Ilyinski saw as the problems with the nail salons in their own neighborhoods. For their new salon, they upped the hygiene standards, stocked of-the-instant brands like Nars and Chanel to their polish roster, and added tech-savvy elements like iPads and a database that remembers what nail polish colors you like best (and have worn recently).
Now, Ferber’s taste level packs a one-two punch: She still has a knack for finding ridiculously chic pieces from under-the-radar designers and she can recommend an of-the-moment nail polish color for the season.
Here, the stylish Tribeca resident fills us in on what she’s coveting for fall.
That HATCH cape is to die for! And can someone please buy me the Nespresso machine? Just saying, my life won’t be complete until I have it.
