unfortunately, i've been told that the hues i have chosen to purchase out of pure gratification and pleasure are in bad taste. "fascinating turn of events", i think to myself. could this possibly be true? me??! bad taste? how absurd!
i am quite content with not being involved in the latest and greatest fashion trends. but i wouldn't call my choice of nail polish colors distasteful or cheap - far from it with regard to the prices i paid at the mall. what a bunch of crazy talk. so please indulge me as i indulge myself in the sparkly black, metallic turquoise, or pearly white colors that i will oh-so-decadently enjoy despite the remarks or judgments i receive. boo-yah!
*for those of you who are not familiar with the adjective "nails" - it is a derogatory term that probably originated in hawaii but i could be wrong. generally it has been translated as "ugly", "hideous", and you get the idea...
