The summer Olympics begin July 27 in London.
Swimming, gymnastics, track and field, badminton.
Of course, this is reason to cheer for the home team, to hope our athletes end up on the podium swathed in medals galore.
But it's also a good reason - as if we really needed one - to shop, shop, shop for gold, silver and, um, bronzer.
This limited-edition commemorative Olympic Heavy Medal Collection of three metallic polishes (pictured above) from butter LONDON could transform you (and your nails) into a real winner! The trio is $36 at Nordstrom stores. For info: www.nordstrom.com .
