Yeah! It’s fight the frump Friday with Fussy!
I am really bad about nail polish. I love it, but am not very coordinated. I have found that my skills are only useful on my feet. When I attempt painting my fingernails, I am fine for 5 and then things go messingly awry. So, I stick with the toes. I need to keep up with it better hence this post.

Yep, already better. But you say, it is the middle of the winter! No one is going to see them. Why bother? I need the practice. I need the practice painting. I need the practice keeping up with it. I need the practice because I found these on an off season huge blow out sale at Last Call:
But those are just a pair of brown Jesus sandals, big deal? I think not. I have been searching for the perfect pair of mommy sandals for summer use. It has been a 2 year exhaustive search of shoe stores all over the country. Here are the guidelines:
1. Have to be cute–duh.
2. Have to have comfortable sole to be able to walk for miles–duh.
3. Have to have some sort of strap so they will stay on my feet–duh.
4. Have to be neutral in color so can be worn with any summer outfit–duh.
5. Can’t be clunky–duh.
6. Have to be affordable so it doesn’t jeapordize a purchasing summer wardrobe to go with the greatest mommy sandals ever–duh.
Alright, after writing that out it appears all those points are obvious, but transition that list to the mall and sometimes things aren’t as easy as it sounds. So here is my really AFTER:

oh so pretty!!! I like those shoes but seeing as I am 5″2 (and wear a 4 1/2), I will always go for ‘clunky’–I feel a bit bigger then 😉
LOVE the nails AND the sandals!
off to paint mine…
Blessings,

I suck at painting my nails. It always ends up looking like a stuck pig bled all over my toes.
🙁
LOVE it!
Beautiful end result! The red toes make the sandals look glamorous!
SO funny! I am sitting here with wet nails as I read your post! LOVE your sandals, but then I have an obsession with summer shoes.
cool. i should repaint mine. i did them in a pale pink and you cant really tell they’re painted anymore. i had 3 surgeries for ingrown nails so mine look a little funny. but i can walk, run, stand on my toes, etc that i hadn’t been able to do since jr high. woohoo!hmm. must find polish.. scuse me, thanks and bye!
You really have pretty feet. Mine…not so much. But always nicely painted.
Lovely, now I will go out and muck in the foot of snow we have:)
BTW, that ski jacket isn’t at Pepis, it is at Gorsuch. Do they have end of season 60% off sale?
I like the sandals. Very nice toes too. Mine still look like your before.
