26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Work Appropriate Nail Art

Hello! I'm back with the newest 26 Great Nail Art Ideas prompt. If you missed the last one, 'Pastel to Bold Gradient with Something on Top', you can find my mani here. This time the theme is 'Work Appropriate Nail Art'. When I think 'work appropriate', my mind goes to neutrals - especially nudes and soft pinks. I'm not a massive nude fan so went for a baby pink base with some stamping. Read on for more info!

I started off with a base of Barry M 'Surfboard', a soft baby pink from the Coconut Infusions line. I like that this is muted without being grey toned, instead it has a lilac tone to it. It has a super smooth and easy to apply formula and is opaque in two quick coats. It also dries fairly glossy. Below is two coats without topcoat.

Now for the 'nail art' part. I wanted to add something fairly simple, so pulled out my stamping plates and had a look through. The geometric triangle pattern on Uberchic Beauty stamping plate 2-02 caught my eye. I stamped it onto each nail using MoYou London 'White Knight' and a Born Pretty Store clear stamper.

What do you think? I love the soft look of the baby pink and white together, and definitely think it's a work appropriate look. Thankfully I can wear whatever I want on my nails at work, although it is nice to do something delicate once in a while. The next theme is 'Yellow and One Bold Colour' in two weeks time - see you then!

Hope to see you in the next post!
