Just a friendly reminder, it's that time of the year again...
time for sandals and open toe shoes

Please raise your BIG TOE and repeat after me:

I pledge to follow The Rules when I wear sandals and other open-toe shoes:

1. I promise to always wear sandals that fit. My toes will not hangover and touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the sides and tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.

2. I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact and chip-free. I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.

3. I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow.

4. I will shave the hairs off my big toe.

5. I won't wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend/co-worker/mother/sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it there.

6. If a strap breaks, I won't duct-tape, pin, glue or tuck it back into place hoping it will stay put. I will get my shoe fixed or toss it -- no matter how much it hurts.

7. I will not live in corn denial; rather I will lean on my good friend Dr. Scholl's if my feet need him.

8. I will resist the urge to buy jelly shoes at Payless for the low,low price of $4.99 even if my feet are small enough to fit into the kids' sizes. This is out of concern for my safety, and the safety of others. No one can walk properly when standing in a pool of sweat, and I would hate to take someone down with me as I fall and break my ankle.

9. I will take my toe ring off toward the end of the day if my toes swell and begin to look like Vienna sausages.

10. I will be brutally honest with my girlfriend/sister/co-worker when she asks me if her feet are too ugly to wear sandals. Someone has to tell her that her toes look like they've been dragged behind her car on the way to work and no sandal in the world is going to make her feet look good.

11. I will promise if I wear flip flops, that I will ensure they actually flip and flop, making the correct noise while walking and I will swear NOT to slide or drag my feet while wearing them.

12. I will promise to go to my local beauty school at least once per season and have a real pedicure (they are about $20 and worth EVERY penny). I say spend another $20.00 and get an even better one.

I loade sandels would never wear them .but thats just me

hehe today i'm wearing the loudest flip flops of all times!!!

13. I will wear socks if I have nail fungus.

Ewww! lol
And socks with sandals? Another ewwww!

i despise open toe sandles...

*touches up big toe*

What? Why are you looking at me like that?

I loathe the whole socks with sandals thing. Who started that trend?!?! *blames Cabe* dangit!!!

I hate feet, ESPECIALLY dude's feet LOL! The few sandals that I do own, cover up the paws a lot.

I'm a girlie girl.......I get regular pedicures and always wear nice toe less pumps and sandals in the summer. Just remember Dip, your nails have to match your toes It's a must....

hence the reason why i have black fingernails... i have a pair of flip flops and i like to match

Lol, such a funny thread, yes i wear sandles, flip flops, tennies with socks. I just wish i could afford a pedicure again. The things we have to give up when one retires.

Thanks DiP; I spit Twizzler at the monitor because of that.

I love having bare feet or sandals and I have great looking feet, problem is my toe nails. I try to cut them but they always come out all screwed up...
