Lustrous Lime
I love, love, LOVE the color green. Seriously. Every shade of green is my thang. When the husband and I first started dating I bought the cutest hunter green dress. That dress was my obsesh. It was a no-sleeve, scrunched at the top, flowy on the bottom, perfect shade of verde dress. I was saving that dress for date night. The husband (then boyfriend) was going to love this dress, I just knew it (or, so I thought). Well, come date night I put on that hot hunter green dress and jump the moment I hear the door bell ring. The moment had arrived, I could barely contain myself. I strutted out into the living room like I was the next next big thing on the Victoria's Secret fashion show runway. My gaze met my lover's eyes and, nothing. Um, not the reaction I was hoping for (where were the "Babe, you look gorgeous" comments). My sweet boyfriend said to me, "Ugh, you are going to wear a GREEN dress?". Wait, what?!?! Yes, my darling lover does not have the same appreciation for all shades of green like I do. Nope, he does not. Which brings me to this weekend.
As I've mentioned. This girl finds green the 'ish. I refused to give up on my color. So, whenever I make the decision to paint my nails a tone of green, I always make sure to wave it in my husband's face. It usually goes, "Babe, babe, how do you like my greeeeennn nails?". He usually makes some strange comment (this is not unusual for him, he is known for his odd comments, he doesn't have a filter). When I finished painting my nails with Maybelline's "lustrous lime" the first thing I did was turn to the husband. The scene went down a little like this:
ME: "Babe, babe, how do you feel about this nail polish color?"
THE BABE: "Ugh, do you mean that vomit green?" (seriously! vomit green?)
ME: "I'd like to think it's more of a booger green."
THE BABE: He doesn't say anything he just gives me "the" look.
ME AND THE BABE: There are no words, we just sit there and laugh at my booger green nails. Because, really, who wants their nails painted booger green? I DO!
Booger green? Dude, I love it. And, if you have an affinity for all shades of green, well, you'll love it too. Come on, do it, we'll be booger buddies =)
