Don't do fake nails. You can look just as (or even more) professional with short-trimmed nails that are shaped well with a nail file, and coated in clear or subtle polish if that's your bent. Plus they're far more practical and maintanable than fake nails - it you have trouble keeping your own nails long, odds are your lifestyle will make it tough to keep fake nails in good shape.
I avoid heels and hose with pantsuits. They tend to be just as acceptable, and look tidier. One or two dark, well-fitting suits can go pretty far. I don't use my skirt-suit much, but the black suit I wear to just about everything.
