Blue Nail Polish – Really?
Hmm . . . I’m in a quandary. Too old to wear young fashion trends, not old enough to be eccentric. What’s a woman to do? I think I’m too old to wear blue nail polish, but it sure is fun! And right now my 13 year old (who is my very outspoken fashion critic on what’s too young for me) seems to think it’s okay, but my best friend looks at me funny. Will people not take me seriously if I wear it? Do I care? It’s not like I work a high profile, professional job. But what if a great opportunity comes along and I have this nail polish on and it taints someones impression of me? This is too much pressure for a Friday! I think I’ll go drink another cup of coffee.
(Just a glimpse into a woman’s mind – it’s not all fun and games!)
You're over-thinking! Just wear it anyway. Tell yourself you're too old to care what others think and young enough to still be a little wild.
I think you should just try it on. If you like it, that is all that matters. If you have the confidence to wear it, then it will look great on you.
Well, Sheila, if someone judges you first by your nail polish, then poo on them!! I think it looks great!!
Who decided in the first place that nail polish should be red or some related shade? Nowadays just about anything seems to go. Facial piercings are even becoming the norm though I still find them a bit disconcerting.

My sister and oddly my 15 year old daughter insist that only clear nail polish or an nice French manicure is acceptable for a job interview but I say once you've got that job? Go for color! I've got an orange polish from Pure Ice that I love, love, love and where all the time despite not having to match it.
Hahaha +1 to Alex's comment. Be yourself. I decided I'm too old to not wear purple and worry if my hair is perfect. Time to live life to the fullest. Enjoy the nail polish and change it when it gets tiresome.
If it makes you happy, go for it. If anyone has a problem with it, he can look at somebody else's nails.
I think it looks great. If people have a problem with it, tell them you have cyanosis from running the car in a closed garage.
Or you're a Smurf.
If you like the blue nail polish, wear it. If you are afraid to wear it on your fingernails, then paint your toenails blue. ; )
My son sneaks around and wears his mother's lipstick–occasionally, so go ahead with your blue nail polish!
