I have always thought red nails were totally classic, channeling the Bette Davis/Rita Hayworth/Lauren Bacall vibe. On me, however, they seem out of place, and I have spent the day fearing that I will chip them digging in my purse, or fumbling for a door.
Did Bette have to constantly touch up her nails?

I love your short’n’red nails; I think they look amazing. However in my experience ALL nail varnish requires far more maintenance than I can be bothered with, and I think that in the case of bright red, the chips are just more obvious than with paler shades.
Does look very cool though, so maybe worth the effort…
Thanks Felix! Pale pink will be the next test…can’t let fashion interfere with the knitting!
