Blue nailpolish for 60yr-old lady? (dye, color, blond, product)

[MaryleeII]

I got a hankering to try blue nail polish! Only thing, I'm 60 years old----is that too old for such colors? I don't want to look like a silly old lady but hey, you only live once! I also just bought an orange rain jacket---am I entering my dotage? Whatever......

Go for it! Who gives a rat's behind what anyone thinks.

I paint my toenails blue or green almost all the time, alternating now and then with pink or red - I love the way the blue, especially, looks. If you want to try a new color try it on your toenails first, to see how you like it.

Orange rain jacket, blue fingernails...sounds like a Denver Broncos fan. Go for it and go Broncos!

HELLS NO, that's not too old. It's 2016. Sixty today means something vastly different than in the stone age when blue nail polish would be deemed outrageous at any age.

Also, Bazaar and several fashion blogs are touting various shades and finishes of blue as being a color trend this season. So, I hate to break it to you, but you're not going to look like a silly old lady entering her dotage. You are going to look fashion forward and on trend.

Also, that rain jacket is a great shade of coral that would pair very nicely with various shades of blue.

60? Oh puleez. You aren't old. Wear the blue polish!!

You just have style! Style, someone told me once, is the confidence to take fashion and make it their own and not wearing what you think other people will approve of, but what makes you feel like you.

I see women of all ages wearing the beautiful spring colors in nail polish, even an 80 year old I know wears periwinkle on her nails. She doesn't seem like 80 because she is so energetic and she makes even younger people exhausted after a day of shopping with her, I've experienced that personally.

Well, that's a heck of a lot better than old lady blue hair! LOL!

[OldDocKat]

Blue nails would be to far out for me. Although I have reddish blond hair, which is obviously dyed, not a bad colouring, but obvious because I am much too old to have a solid colour. There are some who think I am in my 60s, but those who know, or better apt to tell my age do look at me, as to say, 'why not accept your age"

Live your own live, I do.

I don't care for blue fingernail polish, but if it's not on my hands, it doesn't bother me. It's not as if you'll be stuck with it for life. Go ahead and try blue.
