We (and everyone else) have to look at our nails everyday while on the computer at school or work, and this doesn’t stop in the summer months. So, why not find some professional summer nail designs? Summer is the perfect time to experiment with more vibrant and trendy nail designs that showcase your personality and style. Whether you’re a student getting ready for school or a professional heading to work, having well-manicured nails can boost your confidence and add a touch of flair to your overall look.
My personal default is a more modest look. When I dress up for school or work, I love neutral colors and a more conservative style. You can make any color or style look professional, but if you are looking for something a little more modest to match your blazer and heels, you are in the right place! Here are some summer nail designs for work that you can show your nail tech or replicate at home!
Any of these styles can be modified to fit your preferred length for school or work! I also included links to press-on nails so that you can try them on for yourself.

1) Add a pop of color to a classic look
Adding a little color can liven up any classic nail design, like the french manicure. This look will keep you looking professional yet fun.
2) Go with white
White is a classic color for any season, and it certainly shines for summer. White is great with any casual or professional outfit.
3) Floral details
A simple, floral pattern can bring some personality into your more professional office outfits! From the beach to the office, this kind of manicure is great for your out-of-office days while still staying professional for the office.
4) Swirl patterns with a touch of color
Simple flair details like swirl patterns are great for school or work. This manicure is modest yet exciting. Add some color to the swirl patterns for extra personality.
5) Neutral ombre
You can never go wrong with a neutral ombre. This is a classy look for a professional setting, yet still gorgeous for a night out in your best dress. Pair this look with a matching pedicure and your favorite heels.
6) Refreshing colors
Solid colors like pinks, reds, or tans are great because they can go with most outfits. Brighter colors can be fun once in a while for the summer months. I would stay away from neon greens or yellows, however, but use your own discretion. A solid color with a modest nail length will keep you looking your best at school or work.
