THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT. It is no longer cool to wear nail polish that matches both your fingers and toes. If right now you're reading that and feeling uncomfortable then you and I are the same. Samesies. That's right, it has been a straight struggle for me to embrace this nail trend. It is well documented on this blog my having fun with the accent nail or even simple nail art. However, intentionally choosing different polish colors for hands and feet seemed well, wrong. What struck me as great about the idea was the fact that our fingers chip way before our toes (unless you play soccer I've been informed) so what a fun way to switch things up. Besides that, it is spontaneous and unexpected which is what we girls all want to be!! I am super easy going so over time I started to experiment with the idea. Currently I am having such a great time doing it that often I will think of two I want to pair up days before it's time for my weekly nail do-over. Since I have this awkward tendency to go against the grain whenever possible, I don't always put the darker shade on my toes. I mean..that would be expected. Nobody wants that.
