Mix and Match

Betsy at My Five Men is having her second Pedi Party of the year today.  Since I was lucky enough to wind the prize she offered for the last one (a foot scrubber-rasper-pumice-buffer and two bottles of polish--"Turquoise Paradise" and "Midnight Swim"), I figured it would be poor manners not to participate this time, too.

I've never used blue polish before; it took some getting used to, but in the past two months I've had light blue toes and dark blue toes.  The latest configuration is a nod to this summer's manicure trend with one nail painted a different color than the rest.


Although my feet are encased in shoes when I'm at work, I enjoy seeing my colorful toes when I'm wearing my flip flops around the house. I've also discovered that the accent nail makes a good focal point during my Piyoga class.

    You have such cute toes, too! Love the added punch of the extra color. I still haven't done that but you're right...it is SO popular! Thanks for playing along!

    I love the blue with the one black added as a little surprise. I have worn that color and it is so fun!

      Thank you. The "black" looking one is a very dark blue called Midnight Swim.

    Glad to see you were brave enough to use the blue polish. I was given two bottles of blue polish as a favor at a birthday party but have never really used them. I painted my thumb with the lighter blue one time but couldn't bring myself to do any more fingers. Then I tried it on my toes and immediately took it off. I like purple like colors on my toes and I rarely paint my fingernails.

      The blue really took me a while to get used to. Now I like it.

      I don't do my fingernails, either.
