A nude color is one of the best nail colors you will find in any profession. The beauty of nude, from soft beige to light taupe is so beautiful that it can just blend in with any outfit. The simplicity of nude nail colors guarantees that you will look polished but not draw too much attention. Nude nails can go with any meeting, presentation, or any day when you want to keep it low, nice, yet elegant.
10. Mauve
Mauve offers a rather sophisticated, understated elegance of the kind that you would want for the workplace. It's a great alternative to mainstream pinks and nudes which tone down the flash of color. It exudes maturity and poise, from the softest of mauves to its deeper colors. This means that mauve nails will look great at important business deals, meetings, or big networking events.
11. French manicure
The timeless French manicure will not turn its back on you. The style comes either clear or with a light pink background with white tips. You can say it's specifically meant to produce a result that is simple and classic. A French manicure always works with any professional setting that you may find yourself in. It is an element of nature that you want with a groomed and polished effect. This is the perfect style for all types of office spaces and especially for women who have an obsession with being immaculately tidy and groomed all the time.
12. Blue
Sometimes, a light decent blue color can really elevate your look. If you're wearing an outfit that goes well with a soft blue color, wearing it can look really pretty. Imagine you have a evening lunch with your colleagues, or a formal event at the office, this type of color can go really well in such cases.
