    or just not into that sorta thing. Do you have any clothing that you wear in a certain mood. Like I wear a certain sweatshirt when im in a certain mood. I guess I like to associate objects with feelings...

    I'm a pretty cranky person, but my nailpolish is always bright and sparkly. Le gasp! No consistency with mood. Right now it's sparkle turquoise...

    I love to paint my nails but it doesn't have any correlation to my mood. I'm currently wearing Essie's "smokin hot"...a purplish gray. I love to wear bright colors and will do some really wild colors at times! Not into nail art though at all...

    I get my nails done at least once a month. Whether I'm in a good mood or not, I like to get it done. Think I deserve it!

    My desk drawers are full of polish. ._.

    Today I'm bare. I had to cut down to nubbies because of some bad breaks.

    I change my polish almost every day, it is so relaxing to me! :) I don't think I switch it up according to mood, I think the weather influences my polish choices more than my moods.

    I haaaate wearing nailpolish on my fingernails cause it always chips within a couple hours of applying it. I don't mind it on my toenails, though; stays on longer.

    I don't think so. I wear black, gray, or pink. It just depends on what color I find first.

    No consistency with mood whatsoever these days, but both fingers and toes always have polish on them.
    I tend to go crazier with the toe colour, but lately I've been sticking with shellac french manicures

    When I was a kid, I do remember matching my colour to my mood. If I was nervous about something, I'd always paint designs on my nails, if I was upset I'd wear a colour to cheer me up, and if I was feeling "flirty" I'd pick something sassy

    I think this is great for men! Once we figure out what colors are associated with angry, bad moods, etc., we can stay away!:laugh:

    Not at all....I just choose whatever colour I fancy at the time...I have about 20 to choose from. I do my own nails, always have and always will, I won't pay for something I can do at home in half the time!!

    neon! I can't wait to wear some of my China Glaze neons but it just isn't warm or sunny enough yet in Wisconsin for that to feel right :) RIght now I have a burgundy color on my nails, and it is a rainy day here right now so it is fitting :)

    I mix it up sometimes, but my go-to shade is Sephora's Frankly I Don't Give A-Dam, it's an opaque light gray. LOVE IT!!!

    well it appears im the only one... but maybe I should give people a heads-up. im thinking of going hot pink. but its not feeling righ at the moment. maybe ill go shopping. nothing like retail therapy to list my mood. also on an ominous note. black is sounding awefully good right now although dark gray might be a compromise

    I do not change my nail polish color until the nail polish is coming off. I like to see how long I can make my nail polish last. However, when I do put nail polish on my mood decides what I put on. I do not put nail polish on because I want it to match my shoes or clothes for the day. I end up wearing clothes and shoes that match my nail polish for as long as that nail polish can last.

    My problem is not breaking out the slutty colors in the winter. I like them so much better! :bigsmile:

    I don't paint my nails, but I let my daughter paint my toenails every once and a while. And she chooses the color, and her selections typically are to match the current outfit...
