Shell -- I vote for the blue vest belted; my second choice is the black vest belted. You look very professional. Good luck with the interview!

i vote for the blue vest belted; you look stylish and professional at the same time :). i wore a suit to my first career fair but i was so nervous and so worried i'd be late that i was sweating buckets throughout my interview and the interviewer had to offer me some tissues :\

Without looking at what anyone else said, I also picked blue vest belted. You look great! Did you change your hair color?

I also think you could wear tall boots with a small heel with the outfit given our insanely cold weather today!

It's a toss up between the blue vest belted and the black vest unbelted.

The belt makes the outfit look more stylish and the beltless makes you look sleeker and more sophisticated. I guess it depends on the kind of job interview. For a law office, I'd go w/out the belt, for a fashion type job, I'd go with the belt. For a construction company--I'm not sure what the job itself is, but I'd probably have a little fun and wear the belt.

I'm in the minority but I like the black vest with the belt. The shoes are cute, but I adore the pointy toed pumps in the first pic, so I'd wear those (if you don't have boots - boots would be practical if it's cold). With the black vest, if you accidentally spill coffee because you're nervous, nobody will notice (see I think of everything!)

But just to confuse things... if you go with tall black boots, then I'd go with the blue vest instead.

Good luck!

That's exciting, Shell! Good luck. Remember you're assessing them as a place to work, too.

I vote for the black vest belted. You look just fabulous in that. I like the blue vest, but feel the darker look is more interview appropriate.

My vote is also for black vest belted. I like the blue vest belted too, but I agree with Alecia about the darker look being more interview appropriate.

I love your outfit for the career fair. You look great in all your outfits. I think the belt really ties things together. Good luck!

I vote the the blue vest belted, it's very interesting, and looks professional for your and industry. Good luck, Shell!

Black vest belted. I'm guessing that for the construction industry you don't want to look too girly. Good luck with the interview.

Another vore for black vest belted. I guess we are all here completely split. The career fair outfit is lovely. Good luck!

Wooohooo! I vote black vest with belt too. Wonderful interview outfit. Good luck. You look fab and will make a great impression!

Another vote for black vest belted here. I think it looks more professional. I also vote for pointy toe shoes. Good luck!

thank you so much for your input, everyone! i think i will go with black vest belted. steve liked that one the best too and he's all excited about being my stylist - he tries to offer very poignant critiques and comments :)

i actually changed my outfit at the last minute this morning on account of the cold weather... -4 :( but i'll keep you in suspense until my weekly post... :P

Fabulous outfits! You can't go wrong with any of these looks. Let us know how the interview went!
