I get it and feel much better. #5 all the way.&nbsp;</p> <p>Now I hear you -- the paid job is in this industry. The vocation is doula.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have two jobs, too. &nbsp;:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983574 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 09:59:11 +0000 Astrid 983574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like #5 best. Is there any chance you could buy another topper (a jacket or blazer) for the interview? If you don't have one already it might be a good wardrobe addition.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983571 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 09:54:16 +0000 Anonymous 983571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 5 the best. Love the colour of the top on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983563 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 09:20:05 +0000 Hil 983563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone... I feel most comfortable in #2 and #5. One is very formal but Deborah and Debra&nbsp;are very correct that I don't feel very me in that that. And the button down is actually very long and it feels all bunchy under the skirt!</p> <p>I don't have much in the way of toppers - they're all too drapey and casual. The shoes in 1 are brown and I don't think they would work with anything except the brown button down. &nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for your worry Suz - that was sweet and made me smile. The fact is I currently work in the same industry and my current work environment is not ideal. My commute to work is at least an hour in stop/start traffic. My bosses can be very sweet but they're extremely tempestuous and I never know what I am going to get on any particular day and they both smoke in the office and I'm convinced I am slowly dying from secondary smoke inhalation. If the working hours and salary are decent and the vibe seems nice, I may be in for a better experience. The fact that this position&nbsp;is only minutes away from my home is a huge plus factor! I also know quite a few of the people there already - ex-colleagues. I love that it has such a strong female presence in a very male dominated industry.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983547 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 07:33:25 +0000 lyn* 983547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #5 the best - just a touch of stylish, and a lot of class </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983468 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 03:55:44 +0000 celia 983468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know what kind of job but unless you are going into a less formal place I would wear 1. I like the colors on 5 better but in a more conservative environment the proportions might not go well.<br /> Some shear black hose sounds good.<br /> Is that the only button down shirt you have? Do you have some kind of topper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983452 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 03:45:54 +0000 amiable 983452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for #5! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983343 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 01:54:51 +0000 rachylou 983343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #5 best.

The colour of the tops is very flattering to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983256 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 00:15:10 +0000 Deborah 983256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How exciting Hil :)&nbsp; I really like #5.&nbsp; While #1 is structured, I don't think it's particularly 'you' and I am concerned you may not feel comfortable in it.&nbsp; You could go with either the boots or pumps which a nude or sheer black hose.&nbsp; I might wear a necklace like what you are wearing but longer (but that is not deal breaker of course).&nbsp; #5 has the structure and 'smartness' required but still IMHO reflects you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983102 Wed, 17 Jul 2013 21:25:44 +0000 Ornella 983102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>5 with shoes from 1?

Do you have a topper you could wear with it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983054 Wed, 17 Jul 2013 21:00:19 +0000 Debra 983054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 5 Hil. My impression is this version is a more businesslike you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983011 Wed, 17 Jul 2013 20:05:22 +0000 Anonymous 983011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 and 5 I think are best. Sheer hose too. This is in insurance, right? Did you get a sense how formal the company is? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-983005 Wed, 17 Jul 2013 20:03:14 +0000 Suz 983005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hil, I'm sorry - I missed the type of job you are applying for...</p> <p>For an interview I think I prefer the more structured looks of 1 or 5....I agree that sheer black hose might be best.&nbsp;</p> <p>Do you have a topper that works? Or maybe it is not the kind of position that would demand that level of formality.&nbsp;</p> <p>(Suppressing my worry that you are giving up work you love to take on work you won't love....) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-interview-outfits#post-982991 Wed, 17 Jul 2013 19:53:49 +0000 Hil 982991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I posted earlier about a job interview that I'm going to.</p> <p>Please excuse how dreadful I look. And how creased some of the clothes are - some were scratched out of the donate pile that is yet to be donated! </p> <p>Your comments and suggestions will be much appreciated! Also - need advice on hose colours. The only pair I could find for the pics here were shiny, blackmail. I'm thinking I should either wear shear matt black or opaque. </p> <p>I need a pair of black pumps!!! </p>
