Kim, this outfit was for another interview (stupid temporary jobs). I did wear a pant suit to the TV interview. No more communication yet, except I got a call to do some freelance work for them in March, so that's good. I am planning to call the people who interviewed me soon to check in and remind them that I am still interested.

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Wow! All three outfits are fabulous! You have mastered the right proportions for your body shape!

The interview outfit is so stylish and chic!
Fun polka dots and hose for the Valentine's look!
The ruffle and lace yumminess of that purple blouse looks fantastic with your cream moto jacket!

Adore! Adore!

(The only criticism that I have is you are not listing the stores where you're buying these fabulous blouses! Tsk! Tsk! No keeping secrets!) ; )

You look great in all of them, but I'm particularly a fan of the last interview look. And I too can see the weight loss in your face!

ahh, just read your interview story on your blog... that is a bummer. sorry that happened ;-( I guess you could have acted like dry cleaning was your passion and your dream job and then when your other job opens up a family emergency comes up and you must put your dry cleaning career on hold..... (not that I ever advocate lying)

Thanks ladies! Your comments make me smile.

AJ, Haha... no secrets! The purple lace blouse is ECI from Nordstrom Rack, the polka dot blouse is Michael by Michael Kors from Macys (this one: http://www.macys.com/catalog/p.....nnerID=264 ) and the patterned black and white interview blouse is from Forever 21 (actually from Faith 21, their plus size line).

Kim, honestly I would have fibbed a bit more, but the first thing he said to me when I walked in for the interview was that he hired this one girl and then 2 months later she quit because of a family emergency. LOL. So... while I didn't flat out say that I only wanted a two month job, I think he got the hint. Seriously though, his ad should have said he wanted a long term commitment. Blah!

too funny Marianna, I guess someone beat you to that excuse
I do feel bad for those looking for jobs- I've been nagging my son (18 next month) to get a job and he's having a terrible time. I guess I should cut him some slack. Maybe I should encourage him to go into the dry cleaning business- LOL, I crack myself up.

I'm in agreement with the others. All three outfits look fabulous!

outfit 1 - I like how you've taken what I consider to be a fancier blouse and rocked it with the moto jacket, jeans, and boots.

outfit 2 - The textured tights make the outfit look so polished, yet fun. Love the polka dot blouse.

outfit 3 - Again another gorgeous blouse! I like the cut of jacket, as well.

I want to shop with you.

Add me to the list of people gushing! I'd be happy to give you some constructive criticism if I could think of anything to say other than, "Gah! I love it!"

I love all of these outfits! I would have never thought of a white jacket over a purple blouse, it works beautifully. Very stylish and chic!

High five, polka dot lover! I have been obsessed with polka dots since I was five years old and there is no end to my obsession (as you saw in today's blog post).

There is also no end to your gorgeous style, Marianna. Love it! You drip with panache and people can learn from you.

p.s. I've noticed that we like a lot of the same things: pearls, geometric patterns, hose, flats, saturated colours and black & white combinations. Another high five!

A million thanks for all the kind words everyone!

Angie, I adore your style, and your style has been a huge influence on me! Currently I am coveting a white watch... and more citron.

Marianna, you are so cute. Love your outfits. I admire your style and sense of fashion. Wish I had an ounce of what you have in that department. Sorry to hear of the interview.

Oh my goodness, you look absolutely beautiful!! what is your secret to pulling together these amazing outfits? I really love your use of the pattern blouses. What is the right length for a patterned blouse to hit? Thanks for sharing your pics!

I'm honoured. AND I've noticed that you've lost weight. I meant to say that in my first comment - sorry!

Hmmm, these interviews aren't smooth sailing are they.

Thanks for noticing the weight loss! I seem to be fitting in a solid straight size 16 now which feels GREAT.

Ah... these interviews have been extremely pathetic. I'm just looking for a stupid temporary job while I wait for the TV show to hire me. I'm going to a temp agency on Monday so maybe they can help me find something for two months.

Hello miss skinny, minny, solid size 16, uber-stylish Marianna!!! You, along with Angie have been highly instrumental in my renewed interest in geometric patterns, saturated colors and woven blouses. Sorry about the interviews. I just have my fingers crossed for fab news in May no matter the bumps along the way (hey that rhymes!). LOVE your style Marianna!
