Talk It Out Tuesday: Why do you love nail polish?

I really enjoyed last week's "Blogging Revelations" post. It was a really engaging post, which is something I'd like to do more on this blog. I'm going to test out a new weekly post that will be conversation based . I'll have a new topic every week that will be in regards to blogging, polish, beauty, or any other topics, I know we all can relate to. I'd love to see some chatter in the comment section too amongst you all.  I think this is a fun way to get to know each other better outside of just swatch pictures and reviews. This may not work out, but I figured I'd give it a try!

Todays Topic: Why do you love nail polish? 

I know we all love the colors and the selection, but is there a deeper reason for your attraction to nail polish? Did it help you kick a nail biting habit? Did you help you break out of your shell?

Please let me know in the comment section!

My answer:
I'm kind of fashion-challenged or maybe fashion-phobic. I don't follow trends, I have no idea what is "in" and what is "out". I've also never been a flashy dresser or someone who is out of the box as far as appearance. I'm not entirely comfortable with it all, though I definitely admire others who are. I love people rocking pink hair, rainbow eye makeup, and etc. It's just not for me, but I do like to show off my love for the funky and creative in small doses. How do I do this? Nail polish..duh! I love glitters, vampy colors, pastels, holographic, and etc. Nail polish is definitely how I show off my creative, fashionable, and outgoing side.

Also, I'm the type of person who goes to Home Depot and is drawn to the section of the store with all the wall paint samples. I pick out a bunch just because of the colors. I was always like this rainbows of colors always attracted me. I always needed the 96 box of Crayola crayons. I always wanted xyz in every color. I just love colors. I love to look at colors! Nail polish is the perfect medium of a wide range of wearable colors. Plus, nail polish is so affordable. You don't have to drop down a ton of money on clothes, makeup, or hair color, or shoes to make it happen. You can have any color for a reasonable price.

I'd say those are my top reasons for loving polish outside of the obvious reasons.

What are yours?
