lurve the thread title.

Can I add "summer face crimes" - do not leave the house without sun block on face and decollete unless you want to look like an old bag at 45.

Do people have a french manicure on their toes, or is this hands only?

I don't like really dark nail polish on toes, it makes me shiver in the same way as thinking about biting silver foil.

But you can't have naked toe nails!

If you have nicely shaped toes and nails a french manicure is very now apparently. I've got to defuzz my toe knuckles before exposing my plates to the community.

Yuck I hate looking at other peoples feet. I agree with cods advice, no over hang toes and cut your nails. Why do women squash their feet into too small sandals when we can all see they have big feet??

yes Puff you can have French pedicure (or whatever the term is for toe nails??!!). it looks really nice and neat but would reccommend to have it done at a beauty salon till you get confident. nothing worse than french manicure done wrongly.

I've never had it done myself but quite a few of my friends were sporting it last year and it did look nice. mind you, these friends appear to spend most of their time at the hairdresser, beauty parlours, shopping, out at lunch etc etc!

I wear either pillar box red or a dark burgundy/red one (usually the latter). Hate unpolished toe nails with sandals on - yuk, yuk, yuk!!

My beautifully polished toe nails were commented on by the midwives as i was stitched up after ds3's birth

LOL at 'wholemeal sandals'!!! And JTs pic!

Yep, spotted this as a cod thread a mile off!

Eewww, yes, 2nd toes bigger than big toe is well freaky!

Me too, Hausfrau. Am almost frighteningly low-maintenance in most other areas but my mother always taught me that a lady never has un-polished toenails

Mine are currently fabulous pillar-box red. Don't know if it suits my skin tone though. I can't get my feet that near my face any more.
