Blue-tipped toenails sound more revolting than the speedo. I saw a guy the other day with nasty, chipped dark blue metallic sort of polish on his toenails. At first I thought it was some sort of toenail necrosis or something and when I realized it was polish, I was like wtf? because it was so hideous.

"Toenail necrosis" might be a helluva name for a blue-black nail polish color!

I've actually seen a handful of people with reverse french manicures, white nails with black tips, and I actually like it. However, I could never pull it off as I do my nails myself and I don't have a steady hand. And I'm more partial to short and neatly trimmed nails in purples, greys and even black.

I don't french manicure my toes (I agree, it's ridiculous) But on my hands, sometimes in the summer I like to sport what I've heard called a "cuban manicure", red nails with white tips.

:shakes head:

I'm sorry.... I .... was going to post something about.... um, toenails? And maybe polish? Or... something?

But I keep getting mental flashes of hairy, incredibly tanned middle aged Italian men in Speedoes... and then my brain shuts down.

The only thing that would be more catatonia-inducing is an incredibly tanned, middle-aged man in a Speedo, and he has French manicured toenails.

I bet Andy Garcia has a Cuban pedicure.

(That one is so funny, it's stopped me dead in my tracks! )

I really want to put together some sort of joke involving Andy Garcia in his Ocean's 11 suit, strappy sandals and a Cuban pedicure yelling "ARGH BLARGH!!" but I'm too hot and ... stupid ... right now ... zzz

Dawndie, I think you have it! Now whenever I see some sort of toenail painting atrocity, I'm going to start out by saying ARGH BLARGH! That is probably what Andy was yelling about at the end of "Ocean's 11" and we didn't understand that it was the official Cuban protest that someone has French manicured, and not Cuban manicured nails!

(BTW, Antimony -- I love Cuban manicured fingernails. They are very retro and exotic. I even like French manicured fingernails, but they aren't as hot and Latin.)
