A Set Of Clean Nails
Clean white nails are the safest option, an alternative to basic pink nails. Also, adorn yourself with good ring choices and keep it minimally accessorised for work. Plain glossy white, gradient white and creamy white nails are always welcomed at work. However, avoid matte white nails as it turns yellowish in a few days!

The Subtle Pinks
Pink is a wondrous colour. At the mention of pink, every lady in the room will have a different shade of pink in mind. Which is your type of pink? Or, which pink is most suitable for work? Go for a duller tone or a lighter version of pink. That will be what we call- Office Pink. It is still as pretty and as demure as ever. But it helps you put away the 'kiddy' side of pink.
