Cali

I was out traveling to a 400-450 person conference this past. Flew in early (and in my JS knee high) and had dinner with a friend I had not seen in several years. While at dinner a woman walked by in what I would say were 12 cm pointed-toed bejeweled stiletto sandals. Just gorgeous. At the conference itself the leader wore some very tall stiletto pumps (several during the conference)..over 13 cm...but then she is tall and I bet has size 13 us or 45-46 eu More on heels and this trip in CaliWorld in a few days after I rest. But a tip bit, flew back in faux leather pants and JS knee highs. 15 hour day, meetings and flights.

I can attest to that. Even the summer can be that way to. I was in Bath in June and it was cold, wet, and windy And then Scotland ... I was also at the Edinburgh Castle in the same trip in June and the cold-wet-wind made me think I was at the top of a double black run when its -5F (-20.5C) and howling. I was so glad I took my heavy duty ski jacket for that summer time trip. Can you return them if you don't fit or if you don't like them in reality? Then it a (as we Yanks like to say) NO Brainer.

No problem. Haven't worn a watch since the sixties. Besides, I don't think the magnets are that powerful.

Once my nail bed on some fingers started to have issues, I had to get the nails covered with acrylic to hold them together; then you need to cover the acrylic with gel. That was 10 years ago. It took awhile to get use to having colored nails. I get compliments from both men and women, and may people will compare my nails to their....really no comparison You could start with a translucent gel with a very little color. Or you could ask your nail tech to do a magnet gel on your baby fingers. I think she would be excited to do it. The polish is sometimes called 'cat eye' when you use a different magnet to get the total cat eye effect. Cat eye nail polish works by using special formulas with metallic or iron particles that are pulled into patterns by a strong magnet. Google it and see all the effects you can get. It very similar to the special effects of some car paint jobs in the 70's

I went to a brown with magnetic copper sparkles. The magnet oriented the sparkles so that one direction it looks brown-copper, another direction orange-copper, and another direction yellowish-green. The magnet also put thin bright copper waves across each nail.

That goes ditto for eucalyptus trees and their pods. Live with with both.

Good time for wide flare longer pants.

I drive in heels and barefoot all the time (but not at the same time). I wears heels, I get in the car and drive. Only heels I not fond of driving in are stilettos, because my heel tip digs into the mat.

Many years ago, I told myself I would get earrings when my mother died, it would kill her (I thought). Now she is well over 100, I wonder if I will ever to it. Having hairless bodies is a function of gyms and tattoos. That 'cute girl' tattoo is not as cute when it is hairy. I need sections of my body hairless to tape, so I get waxed regularly.

I've bought and returned 4 pairs of heels this year, all didn't fit. But I have not seen many I like lately in the first place.

I only get regular polish on my toes, but I see some women that get gel on they toes. Maybe if you going on a tropical vacation with lots of walking in sand. You could start slow with a tint instead of pure color. Or you could go all out with glow-in-the-dark polish for Halloween.

I started pedicures about 20 years ago. My wrist/hand was in and out of cast for 6 months followed by surgery. I was complaining to a cosmetologist that I couldn't cut my toe nails and she suggest I get a pedicure. The first year I only got clear., then tints. I started colors around 2011, first simple. Now almost anything but pink or red. Since I am diabetic, foot care is important. My fingernails started in 2015 when my thumb nail started to split from the tip to the bed. Tried everything, but nothing worked. Finally someone suggest getting it covered with acrylic and they put a layer of gel over that. A year later I tried to see what would happen if I stopped doing the acrylic nail. It split in 3 days...back to acrylic. Then another nail had issues, so it got acrylic too. But my hand looked funny with two differently shaped nails. .... Anyway I get a complete set of acrylics every month and a pedi at the same time. The place I go to has only three independent nail techs. They each have their on set of clients and they can't take any new clients. I have interactions with the other customers. A few of the women customers sent their husbands in. Most don't get color. My fingernails have had almost very type of technique, chrome, metalic/magnetica - fish eyes, to plain color, to ombres, to art... My tech love do my nails because I allow her to be more creative. The place was once called Nails to Envy As far as complements, many women have told me my nails are fantastic, they wish theirs were so nice. I get complement from men as well, and I said before I here the "I wish I could do it too".

My Ex-wife is extremely envious of my nails. 😁 And I love it!

I only take my right heel off when I have stilettos on and going to drive for over 20 minutes. Otherwise I drive in my heels, even for a 8 - 9 hour trip. Most car sold in the US have a CVT - continuous variable transmission, which is a belt system.

Both my fingers and toes get complements from BOTH men and women. Sometimes a man will tell me he wishes he could color his nails but is too afraid to do so.
