And knowing your writing talent, I am secretly hoping that in your leisure time you'll write a short story about the recovering addict in the pharmacy department... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unplanned-job-interview/page/2#post-1961125 Wed, 03 Oct 2018 14:38:48 +0000 cindysmith 1961125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Krishnidoux, thank you! I wasn't sure what was off &amp; that was all I could think might be it.</p> <p>Katerina, Shiny, thank you so much!</p> <p>Lynn, agreed. The outfit wasn't necessarily interview appropriate; however, it was much much better than what I usually wear to meet with the voc-rehab people. And I live in an area where the bank tellers wear jeans, sneakers or cowboy boots, and casual tops (and it isn't in that ironic, normcore type of way). I was just grateful it wasn't my usual: distressed jeans, tank top, tactical boots or uber-casual sneakers, and zero makeup.</p> <p>Angie, you made me giggle:-D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unplanned-job-interview/page/2#post-1961102 Wed, 03 Oct 2018 13:07:05 +0000 Angie 1961102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER, and I'm thrilled for you, sweet <b>Cindy.&nbsp;</b></p> <p>And bless those perfect pant lengths.

And yes, the produce experience is why he wants to go ahead &amp; try to get me in there, before the holidays and the employee's semi-retirement. The stars must have been aligned for me ;-)</p> <p>Krishnidoux, I think the pants have too much yellow tone for the other tan/brown components of the outfit. You're right about the comfort level, absolutely 15 out of 10 LOL</p> <p>Cardiffgirl, thank you! My "holy grail" job (when I was talking to the voc-rahab staff) was Old Navy, because they're offering a 50% employee discount for their seasonal employees, and the discount extends across ALL gap brands. I'll take something close to home with a strong possibility of continued, full-time employment anyday, though</p> <p>Style fan, I am fidgety in prints so I LOVE color-blocking as an alternative</p> <p>Mainelady, thank you! XOXO</p> <p>Jane, I agree; I don't know that I could do the meat department or run the register. Something about actually touching the produce feels calming (or something) to me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unplanned-job-interview#post-1960414 Sat, 29 Sep 2018 09:59:01 +0000 Jane 1960414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! You look super! What serendipity indeed! (me thinking that veggies / produce are more cheery to sell than many other things). I love the colour of your mirror and wall behind.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unplanned-job-interview#post-1960410 Sat, 29 Sep 2018 09:39:01 +0000 Mainelady 1960410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great and I really like these lighter autumn shades on you. The shoes and jewelry are the perfect pieces of polish.

And for having conducted it with composure on such short notice. You were beautiful and approachable. Necklace detail is delightful with the top. The outfit's colour work so well with your coloration too.&nbsp;</p> <p>IMHO to tell you the truth the only thing I find that could be changed are the pants. Somehow they strike me as not quite belonging to this outfit. They are not bad, and they look comfortable too, which was probably in your favor for the interview. You have chosen very nice, refined footwear which elevate the outfit and give cohesion with the top. I like that the necklace echoes the pointy shape of the shoes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unplanned-job-interview#post-1960383 Sat, 29 Sep 2018 05:22:17 +0000 JAileen 1960383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey, you already know fruits and veggies, so it’s right up your alley.

I had to go back to look at the shoes after reading the comments. They do elevate an already wonderful outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-unplanned-job-interview#post-1960360 Sat, 29 Sep 2018 03:04:32 +0000 karen13 1960360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice job! And good luck with the search. You look professional and put together in this. Love the specs too. Do you have a black belt to tie in with the Celine and the top? Maybe too high contrast, but wondering. </p>
