I vaguely remember some vogue photo shoot in the recent past (past two years, maybe) that was way 80's and recommended intentionally chipped nails. Amy I making this up?

Thanks, that was a really great piece. Common sense advice, but it's great to see it all out in writing from a highly credible fashion insider.

I wear denim shorts and occasionally (OK, more often then I like to admit) have chipped nail polish, but those are things that are not appropriate for the workplace. Even if you aren't working in corporate America.

I think that is what she was trying to get at.

Miriam: you're not making this up.
The NYTimes had an article a few weeks ago about how chipped nail polish is becoming an acceptable trend for work. The only time it wasn't good was for a job interview or on your toes.
Everyone interviewed in the piece agreed that chipped nail polish on the toes is never good.

I'm okay with all, but chipped polish. Chipped polish is cool.
