Good luck with your interviews! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212505 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 16:34:43 +0000 Sveta 212505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning, Marianna! It is a great interview outfit for less conservative field.<br /> Grey pumps do not bother me with olive at all - I think they go together pretty well.<br /> However I am with Jean on needing to balance this black a bit...maybe you add can add a jacket in a lighter color?<br /> You look so pretty.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212501 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 16:32:26 +0000 Lana 212501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful! I normally wouldn't like the grey shoes with your other colors but for some reason I really like the look in this outfit! I almost feel like black shoes would just be too predictable or boring... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212484 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 16:04:52 +0000 marianna 212484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all your input ladies! I hadn't thought about the grey shoes looking off but thanks for pointing that out. Problem is, I don't have any black pumps. These are my only "interview" shoes. Maybe I should invest in a black pair...</p> <p>Angie, you can take responsibility for everything in my current wardrobe. :)</p> <p>Michelle, oops sorry! I am wearing the NAS Halogen seamed pencil skirt in olive, a black button down shirt with a matching black belt, grey kitten heel pumps, a pearl necklace, and white watch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212451 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 15:21:02 +0000 greenglove 212451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look and have the same skirt! My only suggestion is a darker shoe because of the amount of black on top. Or you could bring a lighter necklace or scarf near the face to balance the lightness of the shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212442 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 15:00:44 +0000 Michelle 212442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dude, what a tease!!

Honestly, you are probably the best dressed interviewee most of these interviewers see. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212423 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:43:27 +0000 crwilson 212423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for posting this outfit. Interview outfits are so complicated when it's not appropriate to wear a suit, and you've done such a nice job putting together something that looks polished but not too fussy. I really like the whole outfit, but like Scarlet, I think a different colored shoe might look better. For some reason, the gray and khaki don't work that well together for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212411 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:32:43 +0000 Jonesy 212411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing new to add here: You look really wonderful.

You look great! I think it's perfect for an interview. Especially in the heat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212156 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:35:18 +0000 marianna 212156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zapotee, I am wearing both a statement necklace (hard to see in the picture, but it's a big chunky double strand pearl necklace) and a big watch. The belt is removable but I don't have a vest. The fit of the skirt is great so I guess I can play around with tucking the shirt in. Thanks for your great suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212147 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:30:23 +0000 Anonymous 212147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Regarding how to make it less conservative.<br /> My opinion is that you have a great "blank canvas". The two pieces can be dressed up or down as needed.<br /> Some things that came to mind:<br /> - Try adding a vest ( I'm not sure if the belt is removable)<br /> - One " statement" accessory: An oversized watch, a substantial necklace or a big / funky brooch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212131 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:17:34 +0000 Anonymous 212131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, I love that color combination. </p> <p>How is the fit of the skirt at the waist? If ok, I would love to see the same outfit, just with the shirt tucked in and a thin belt , maybe in black , grey or a contrasting color? </p> <p>I personally always put on a jacket, as my "security blanket". However, I believe the outfit is quite appropiate for a more casual interview.</p> <p>May I ask? What kind of field(s) or position(s) are you applying for? That is also a factor.<br /> Good luck on you job search! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212121 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:12:45 +0000 marianna 212121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shana, I'm definitely not going for artsy as I don't have an artsy bone in my body. I didn't want to look too conservative either... so I'm not sure what I'm going for. Do I look really conservative? I guess I have a tendency to do that, and I'm not sure why! What can I do to make it less conservative? And yep, it's the NAS skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212118 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:10:12 +0000 taylor 212118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Shana and Lisa. You look really lovely:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212116 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:08:27 +0000 shana 212116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Marianna, you look fantastic! Is that the NAS skirt?? Love the color! This looks very polished &amp; pretty conservative in a non-suit way to me. Are you going for an artsy look or just a less formal conservative look? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-non-suit-interview-outfit#post-212115 Wed, 08 Sep 2010 02:07:33 +0000 Lisa 212115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is a very nice business casual look for an interview. Add a matching jacket for a suit look to bring this up a notch. Or add a cardigan if it's high a/c in the room. I especially like this style skirt on you. </p>
