What is the most conservative way to do your nails for a job interview?

I have a job interview with the Army JAG Corps and I need to look as conservative and professional as possible. I am going to pull my hair back and wear a muted, neutral skirt suit with pearl earrings.





But what color should I do my nails? Should I get a pale pink, a bright red, a french manicure, or just paint them clear? I am interviewing for a legal position and legal employers always say their interviewees are not conservative enough. So what is the most conservative way to do your nails?





I need to look like Margaret Thatcher, basically.





Also, would you wear an american flag pin with your suit if you were interviewing for a civilian job with the military?





Any other advice on how to look as conservative %26amp; professional as possible at a job interview would be welcome. Thanks!What is the most conservative way to do your nails for a job interview?
Well groomed, clear polish, or pale pink. Nails no longer the 1/2 inch past the finger tip. 23 Years of military experiance.What is the most conservative way to do your nails for a job interview?
french mani or pale pink
trim your nails fairly short, rounded and with a french manicure. this still makes you looked groom but not like your going to walk down the street after your interview and hit the club.
The way to go is DEFINATELY the clear french manicure. Nothing else, it will do the trick!
The nail line should be clean and the color should be as sublte as possible.





As for the pin, I wouldnt it looks like your trying too hard. Keep your makeup clean and simple.





Other than that, you sound prepared.
pale pink
a short french manicure is best for looking conservative, more conservative would be a plain buff with no polish. Flag pin, ok, if tasteful. good luck, hope this helps
Simple, pink nails are the best. French manicure almost looks ghetto. And a conservative pin is fine, but please do not wear an american flag pin. It is not very professional.
weeelll


red will not do. Red makes you look classic yet not as if you want this job. A french Manicure WiLL do because it makes it looks soft and innocent. It makes you look like a Pro
Paint your nails clear and yes wear the pin.....also don't wear very high pencil thin heels, it won't look very conservative.
hold the pin. they take that as tacky. i would go with a neutral or french, but a very subtle pink is very sleek also
Flag would be cliche, ridiculous and childish. French is the most classy conservative way. Wear minimizer bras if you have big ones to look more conservative, and a long skirt suit, with simple NEVER HIGH-HEEL classy shoes.
I would suggest wearing your nails short with just a clear coat of polish on them. If you have the money and time I'd stop in for a quick manicure, have the manicurist push your cuticles back, buff your nails, and give them a nice coat or two of polish. Seems to me that the most conservative women I've met always have plain nails. As to the American flag on your suit....I definitely would add one, as long as it's simple and classic looking, not one of those plastic blinking light ones, lol....but you already knew that :)
Your ideas are perfect. Nails: should be SHORT and either pale, pale pink, almost colorless, obviously matte. But not ';pink-pink'; - but instead a pale PINK/BEIGE. NOT RED OR FRENCH!!!


Yes, wear the American flag pin; the President wears it, you should too!!
clear, french manicure or another very pale color, not red.
