Thursday's tootsies have far to go

I know I have mentioned before that I am a lover of nail art.  I find just one nail colour boring, unless your nails are too short to do anything with them but in that circumstance there is always the half moon and my absolute favourite, polkadots.  

One thing that is always on my to do list and always gets done because I see no point in going out without them looking their best are my toenails.  I don't have the greatest toenails in the world or even feet for that matter but I love to paint my toenails.  I don't feel like me if they're not painted and I can't bear to see a chipping toenail on me or anyone for that matter.  It's not like a paint them every week, it's actually once a month/6 weeks as my nail varnish usually lasts that long before it starts chipping so I can make the time in between everything else. 

Also, I am a lover of ballerina pumps.  Usually when I go over to people's houses I take my shoes off unless I have been told not to and when I attend classes with my son they also require you to take your shoes off... revealing my cleanly painted toenails.  Occasionally I wear little lace socks inside my pumps but the majority of the time I am au naturel.  I also own a couple of pairs of peep toe pumps so definitely no socks with those.  I'm not trying to show off when I have to reveal my toenails, it's all for me really.  It gives me a sense of pride to see them nicely (sort of) painted and it makes me feel like I'm not a total homebody - although I do love a good dressing gown and slippers day. 

I know what you're thinking, how has this girl managed to make an entire post about feet and toenails well I'm done now so it's too late as you've read it all! To finish, here are some pictures of my almost finished designs before I tidy things up:
