				<description>&#060;p&#062;HI Angie,&#060;br /&#062;
I am brand new and greatly enjoying reading the postings.&#060;br /&#062;
Although I haven't measured, I am fairly certain that I am a 'pretty pear', though fairly full-busted (I wear a 32 DD/E).  I am 5'5.5&#034; and currently weigh about 135 lbs (well maybe 140, I haven't checked lately).&#060;br /&#062;
I have to find a suit to wear to a job interview in January.  Actually, I will probably have to have it MADE because I am living in an African city without shopping opportunities, per se.  Not such a big deal because there are many excellent inexpensive seamstresses here.&#060;br /&#062;
Three questions:  Pant suit or skirt suit? I hear some people are still fairly sexist when it comes to women wearing pant suits to interviews. (This is for a teaching job, btw). What to wear for a blouse/top?  I really like the way v-necks look on my as they emphasize what is good (my boobs) and draws attention away from what is bad (my bottom side).  But is a v-neck top too risky? also, can anyone suggest (or send photos) or a good style of suit for my type?  I can try and send a photo of me sometime (ugh....)&#060;br /&#062;
Thanks for you help.&#060;br /&#062;
Michele
&#060;/p&#062;
