Welcome to fall! The time has passed for white shoes, sun dresses and tanning (outdoors at least). We are staring winter right in the face and it’s not a pretty picture. Out come the sweaters, the Uggs, and the wool blankets and ::Poof:: those warm breezes and margaritas are just images dancing in the smoke of the fireplace. So I beg of you do not forget the essential beauty of rite of warmer days…the pedicure (well that and shaving). Your little piggies may be all warm and cozy tucked away in wool socks, but that doesn’t mean they don’t need a little love.
During the winter months your toes need to show themselves, get some fresh air and stretch and without sand or fresh cut grass to dig into, you need to have an alternative. Being locked away in the dark recesses of snow boots can really hurt the self esteem of your lil wiggle worms. So every once in a while, let’s say 6 weeks, walk your chilly bum over to your nearest nail salon (because everyone needs a little pampering), kick of your ski boots and treat your toes to some lovin’. While you are enjoying the massaging chair and soap operas on the salon TV, your footsies will get a nice scrub and rub and they get all dressed up in their OPI best. So the next time they make an appearance in the dark days of the coming months you will be pleasantly surprised and your spirits will be uplifted by the unexpected pop of color. After all, these are the only ten toes (or twelve for some of you) you have…you should take good care of them. And for all of you guys who read this post totally disregarding the title, I recommend pedis for guys too…I would just avoid a colored polish. Just think, how would you explain having toes painted “I Pink I Love You?!”
