Best Ladies’ Night

Artist/illustrator Michelle Barnes and club-marketing maven Paulina Szafranski know that women are complex creatures. Sure, they want culture and companionship, inspiration and ideas — but they also like to have their hair played with and get their nails done. Every Thursday, Barnes and Szafranski host Girls’ Night Out at Mynt True Lounge on Market Street, where sophisticated ladies get together to dish, dine and dig each other. Each week, a speaker — usually culled from the art, media or fashion realm — talks to the assemblage about what it takes to be fabulous while gals scarf up free apps, drinks and salon services. Yes, it’s exclusive, sexist and catty. It’s also a blast. Let’s hear it for these girls.
