I am the sort who moves around a lot in my sleep – tossing, turning. By morning my hair can sometimes be a mess. Moreso on the weekends because I’ll wash it Saturday morning or Friday night and the resulting Sunday mess sticks out in 45 directions. Not sure how that’s possible for someone with such fine hair, but so be it.
Lookit my pretty nails! I got a manicure for the first time ever on Saturday. It’s funny, I’m so girly in some areas but my nails were always a hideous mess. I will not leave the house without makeup on to some degree – just won’t. I won’t go out of the house in my workout pants – in fact I don’t even own sweats. But a manicure or pedicure? I always said “I’m not that type”.
Apparently, I’m not quite yet. I like the look of them even if the lady didn’t do a perfect job (my slight-OCD-tendencies for symmetry/order cringe that the tips aren’t all identical). I feel more feminine, more….”adult”. But I’m not a careful girl, I have not yet grown into my paws, so to speak. First thing Monday morning I notice that -5-, 50%, have chips in the white tips. Most are very minor, I can let them go and just be sure to protect with clear polish when I’m home. But one…well, one was pretty bad. I fixed it in a rather unorthodox way that I just don’t think I should divulge. Suffice to say, millions of uber-femmes around the world simultaneously gasped at 11:30am EST on Monday morning, and they don’t quite know why.
(Edit: Despite my now-religious upkeep with the frenched-white tips, and it being only Wednesday night with chips popping up daily, I’ve deduced that perhaps the very nice lady at the nice salon gave me a crappy polish job. Perhaps it’s not all my fault. We’ll see.)

God, so so so sexy….. I adore both versions.
I’m very OCD when it comes to my nails, lol, and that is why I ‘repair/fix’ them daily. LOL I’m hugely addicted to manicures and pedicures. Hehe…

I like both versions. They’re both so sexy. I just want to come hop into bed with you, haha.
The nails look awesome. I suck hard at those things. My mom loves to do them for me but I can’t keep them looking good or on for longer than a few days. I’m too rough, lol.
Happy HNT!

Well, whether it lasted or not, your nails do look great. But you look better. Very sexy as always!

Lovely. Lovely picture. I’m always impressed by gals who can keep up their nails (even for a few moments…I’m hopeless). And I can surely imagine them raking down a wayward back…

You know all of your pictures I love but there’s something about this one, esp the B&W I love the wee eye peering through the hair, it’s cute.
And the hair? Yea I knows too lol I have fine hair it turns into a birds nest after a good nights sleep/romp hehe xxxx

I think she did in fact do a crappy job :( maybe try out a different girl or a whole different place. I keep wanting to get my nails done but I HATE the upkeep. Yours do look lovely in the photo
February 27th, 2009 at 2:30 am
Haha… I definitely know the feeling… having messy hair in the mornings, I mean, since I never get my nails done ever. I’ve taken to braiding my hair over the years.

Hey, you… that is a GORGEOUS picture.
If you could buy it in a frame from stores, I would quite happily hang it up in my house.
It’s REALLY sexy and you look fabulous.
Haven’t been here for a while, and I’m glad I’m back!
