Shorties, here! :howdy: I would like to have a pedicure soon, though, as I really suck at polishing my own... I just can't afford to keep it up all summer.

Here's some feet photos I got emailed yesterday. Guess which forumites they belong to

I hate long toenails. A lady in leonardtown does acrylic (called "pink and white") on toes. It looks REALLY nice, and keeps them very short. And because it's pink and white, no painting is necessary! :yay:

I don't put that crap on my fingernails, I like my nails alive :barf: so I would never put it on my toes.

My toenails are always kept very short, with polish on them. My fingernails are kept relatively short also, I don't like long nails. Maybe a smidge of white showing, usually polished, sometimes not.

Didn't somebody post on here awhile back about press-on toenails? :lmao:

Sandaled feet should have polished toenails. Barring that, they should be trimmed and neat with no icky gnarly heels.

When the weather breaks, go get a professional pedicure (about $20 and everybody can afford that). Then just remember to use a pumice on your heels when you're in the shower to keep your feet looking sandal-ready at all times.

I CANNOT let anyone else touch my feet, I'm extremely ticklish. :lmao: I have very nice feet though, and take good care of them, so they look fine without professional help.

Before my first pedi, I thought the same. At times it gets ticklish, but it's not too bad. You should at least try it; it's very relaxing. :smile:

I'm not big on fancy schmancy nails. I keep ALL nails trimmed, and most of the time unpainted. I'll admit going through phases of gel coats to grow my nails out and keep them from breaking, but I don't afford my feet that much attention. Clean and clipped is fine with me.

I have tried, and had to resist the urge to kick the poor girl in the face. :lol:

Sandal Rules

Just a friendly reminder, it's that time of the year again.

Please raise your BIG TOE and repeat after me:


As a member of the Faux Paux Sisterhood, I pledge to follow The Rules

when I wear sandals and other open-toe shoes:

I promise to always wear sandals that fit. My toes will not hang over

and touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the

sides and tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.

I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact and

chip-free. I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.

I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow.

I will shave the hairs off my big toe.

I won't wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend, coworker,

mother, sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under

my toes if I tuck it there.

If a strap breaks, I won't duct-tape, pin, glue or tuck it back in to

place hoping it will stay put. I will get my shoe fixed or toss it.

No matter how much it hurts.

I will not live in corn denial; rather I will lean on my good friend

Dr. Scholl's if my feet need him.

I will resist the urge to buy jelly shoes at Payless for the low, low

price of $4.99 even if my feet are small enough to fit into the kids'

sizes. This is out of concern for my safety, and the safety of others.

No one can walk properly when standing in a pool of sweat, and I would

hate to take someone down with me as I fall and break my ankle.

I will take my toe ring off toward the end of the day if my toes swell

and begin to look like Vienna sausages.

I will be brutally honest with my girlfriend/sister/coworker when she

asks me if her feet are too ugly to wear sandals.

Someone has to tell her that her toes look like they've been dragged

behind her car on the way to work and no sandal in the world

is going to make her feet look good.

I will promise if I wear flip flops, that I will ensure they actually

flip and flop, making the correct noise while walking and I will swear

NOT to slide or drag my feet while wearing them.

I will promise to go to my local beauty school at least once per season

and have a real pedicure (they are about $15 and worth EVERY penny).

I say spend another $15.00 and get a even better one.

And finally...

I will promise to throw away any white/off-white sandals that show

signs of wear... nothing is tackier than dirty white sandals.

For all our sakes, please don't keep this to yourself

- pass it on to other Sisters-​
