DH said he liked the colors of the top on me, and I felt comfortable, completely appropriate, and nice in this outfit. If I end up with more blazers, I was happy with style of Calvin Klein shell. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930721 Fri, 22 Jun 2018 16:36:27 +0000 Anonymous 1930721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How did I miss this post?&nbsp; I'm sorry.&nbsp; I'm only seeing it this minute.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930706 Fri, 22 Jun 2018 15:41:12 +0000 Bijou 1930706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the outfits selected by Angie.

I definitely won’t pay for a blazer that was pretty pricy that can’t be buttoned on me properly. I think tailoring is something I should do more of. </p> <p>Christina - I agree the dress code varies. This is not that formal, and I like the idea of looking and not settling for a second blazer. I’d prefer a blue (not navy) or light colored one so I don’t need it to match the bottoms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930212 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 15:22:37 +0000 delurked 1930212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jane - I know some need hose, and I likely would with a dress, but I think I’m ok without. </p> <p>Thanks AT. I like both of those options. </p> <p>Becky - I agree the white blazer pulls too much. I am in love with the idea of a white blazer, but I definitely won’t get one that pulls like that. It irritates me that the sales lady told me it looked good even when I could see it didn’t fit right. The larger size was not available. I think the top in 5 is a layering piece that could work for different outfits. </p> <p>Maybe the CK two button style is available in another color. It is hard to match navys and blacks. </p> <p>Suz - totally agree. Heart eyes to cobalt, and I’ll keep an eye out for a dressier piece in that color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930192 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 14:05:03 +0000 Christina F. 1930192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1 and 5 for an interview. I think an open jacket would be no problem unless you're interviewing for something like corporate law. This means you can probably stick to the jacket you already own, and not scramble to find a new one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930189 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 13:57:42 +0000 Liz A. 1930189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like pic 5 for an interview.&nbsp; The white jacket looks too small but could be worth trying in a size up or just wear open.&nbsp; With strong shoulders, I know I have to get my jackets taken in at the waist.&nbsp; YMMV. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930164 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 13:17:08 +0000 Suz 1930164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely the existing jacket -- the fit on the white ones is not right so you need time to consider (though I love the idea of a white jacket for you). I like both #1 and #3 -- #3 feels more dynamic due to the pattern. For a second interview it would be great to incorporate cobalt since it is so flattering to you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930163 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 13:16:33 +0000 Becky 1930163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the existing black blazer with the blouses in #3 and #5.</p> <p>If you get another blazer, I like the white jacket open, as in #10 (I think it pulls too much around the button if closed). I also like the navy CK blazer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930155 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 12:58:56 +0000 always trying 1930155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 an3 look very polished, and I think for an interview that would be the best way to go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930150 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 12:51:53 +0000 Jane 1930150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go with 1 too I think. </p> <p>(May be some hose on your feet? But I work in a different environment and I think this is probably not right for your field.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930138 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 12:19:09 +0000 delurked 1930138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bj1111 - I don’t think it’s too conservative, but I take your point. I’m in a pretty relaxed area for dressing in general. I’m trying to navigate between being dressy enough but not too banker like. I think the cut of the pieces is helping me get there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930137 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 12:05:25 +0000 delurked 1930137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks LTS, Rachie, Toban and Kathie. It makes it easier to see consensus. </p> <p>I’m also curious as to which style of blazer works best with my body shape, because if this interview goes well there will be a second one. </p> <p>Rachy - I’ve been more marketing in my career, though this is more administrative. It’s an office that requires more dressing up than most if I’m reading it correctly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930135 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 12:02:24 +0000 bj1111 1930135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3. Consider tucking if your field is more conservative. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930095 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 10:13:37 +0000 Kathie 1930095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 3 the best. Navy and black can work. Is there both blue and black in the print in 3 and 17? If so, 17 might also be a good choice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930091 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 09:48:15 +0000 Toban 1930091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Existing black blazer. There’s no need to button the blazer. It looks nice and crisp with your blouses and pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930067 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 07:04:25 +0000 rachylou 1930067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Like the Season. What’s your field? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930060 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 05:24:05 +0000 Like the Season 1930060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfit with your existing black blazer, black pants and green patterned top. Neat and professional. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-advice-for-interview-outfit-and-blazer-questions#post-1930059 Wed, 20 Jun 2018 05:08:37 +0000 delurked 1930059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorted </p>
