The smell of nail polish is just offensive if you're fixing your nails in public.
I'm going for a manicure tonight before going out. I am now curious to see what "Lincoln Park" looks like. If I like it, I might put it on my toes for next week's pedicure.
Watch out Analise, that's how I got started - doing my toes with a (different) dark polish a few years ago!
I've been thinking about this thread today and I wonder how much our occupation determines our nail choices!
Oh, I started the thread here about a year ago regarding how to keep nails from chipping. I do swear by Orly's Won't Chip with a base coat of OPI Chip Skip - that is unless I'm moving furniture, like today! (I import antiques from Britain) Surprisingly I love a French manicure, but I find it gets ruined too quickly if I have too much "rough" work to do.
