Purple Nails

After considerable urging by friends, family and even strangers, I’ve decided it is time for me to start blogging.
I used to have an advice column called “Dear Dar” when I was running singles parties here in San Diego, so a lot of what I will  say is geared to being an older person in today’s dating world.   Probably will throw in  lots of food/restaurant review type stuff, a little financial knowledge, and some clothing/makeup issues.   Whatever I’ve learned, I’d love to share.
  Starting with this week:   While standing in line at the Las Vegas
airport, returning to SD, one of the 2 girls in line next to me commented on my fingernail polish.   This happens all the time, as  I have the most beautiful purple colored nails you’ll ever see.  I’ve heard over and over again that the colors they’ve bought at various stores are not as deep and as rich as they look in the bottle.  So everyone wants to find out the brand I’m using.  Actually, I do use “Savvy, Deep Amethyst” from the Sally Shop and here’s the secret:  Buy any pretty purple that you like and also buy a bottle of black.  Use the black first, then purple over as the second coat.  Color is fabulous!
  For all you purple fanatics like me,  try it and write back with your take on my suggestion.
