Dear Thursday: That Time of Year Again
So if you know me IRL, then you know that I have one go-to color as far as nail polish is concerned and that is blue. This is my boring color. The one I pick when I’m not feeling adventurous. When I am feeling adventurous, then I usually pick some shade of green. I did black when I accompanied by husband to the Emmys, and silver for a hot minute this Fall — those are the most “normal” colors that I’ve gotten for years and years now. But remember two Augusts ago, when I got all itchy and kept on saying, “I need a change, I need a change” and then the next thing you all knew I had cut off all my dreadlocks and quite my job? And remember last August, when I got itchy again and not only got a braided mohawk but also changed up my entire wardrobe? Well, there must be something about August, because I’m feeling soooo itchy right now.
Not only am I fixing to change my hair yet again, but I’m also looking at my boring blue nail polish sideways. And I’m wondering what colors you all are just loving this season. Sound off in the comments.

I know you consider me one of your most adventurous friends, so I'm sure it will come as a blow when I tell you that my go to color is….red. I like it because it feels classic and sexy. Even when I'm not feeling particularly sexy myself, at least my toes look it. But I don't wear anything but clear or light pink on my fingers. I'm so pale I think any color looks a little garish.
I think, for you, you need some orange polish. I'm a little shocked it's not in your permanent rotation!
Debra! Saw your comment just as i was walking into the salon and went w/ orange! Before I got married that used to be my go to color, so yes, it feels good to have it back in the rotation!

I have really had a thing lately for lavendar polish. It's so… soft. I also adore steel gray nail polish.
