Okay, girls I need advice, nothing major, but I want to wear

red nail polish on my toes for the wedding. I tried a light pink, but I am really fair and light colors don't look good on me.

What do you think? Can I do red?

Re: Okay, girls I need advice, nothing major, but I want to wear

I wouldn't do it . - You're going to be in head to toe white, you toes will seem SO red !!
What about a French pedicure ?? Or a light pink ?? I understand you don't want anything TOO pale b/c you're not comfortable, but I think red is a little too much

I was going to do a french pedicure. Maybe a french pedicure with a darker pink?

I got a pedicure last weekend and I did a light pink. It just doesn't do it for me. The darker colors look so much better on my feet.

You have to wear what YOU are comfortable with. - It's just funny b/c I have very light skin too and I HATE the way dark polish looks on my feet !! - I have red on now .....yeah, don't like it on me !!

Re: Okay, girls I need advice, nothing major, but I want to wear

I say go for it! I am light skinned too and the light colors just seem blah on me. I love the dark pinks, like fuschia or even coral (not too orangie). Besides, who's going to see your toes, except when DH removes the garter?

I always go for a nude color. Try Essie's Ballet Slipper. It is very pretty!

Truthfully no one is going to see your toes anyhow, so you can wear red if you like.

Re: Okay, girls I need advice, nothing major, but I want to wear

WOW, red is very bold! Are your flowers going to be red? I would get a trial manicure with the red you like and take a picture of your hands with your ring and see how you like it.

It's up to you. You have to go with your gut. Don't let other people decide for you.

Re: Okay, girls I need advice, nothing major, but I want to wear

I am also super pale so I know what you mean about the light colors. I think red toe nails are SASSY!

Are your shoes totally open toe or just the top open toe?

Re: Okay, girls I need advice, nothing major, but I want to wear

its only your feet and it like the idea that only every now and then people will just get a peek of color

red fingers would be a whole diff story

Re: Okay, girls I need advice, nothing major, but I want to wear

i would definitely go for the red! seems like you feel much more comfortable with it. plus, no one will see your feet - and if they do, it will look nice!! and i will make for some really cute pictures.
