I wore the outfit in photo 12: R13 crossovers, new Everlane silk shirt. That shirt is so good. Highly recommend for people of my general proportions (the deep V might not be for everyone).</p> <p>Interesting that the pair of very polished skinnies I brought (not shown in photos) just felt like the wrong silhouette with all the tops, though they were interview standbys last year. The slightly wider leg of the Madewell jeans seemed better. </p> <p>I won’t hear the outcome for at least a month. This process is killing me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes/page/2#post-1915606 Thu, 03 May 2018 03:10:30 +0000 Greyscale 1915606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Day 1 is over. I wore the Madewell slim boyfriend jeans, the floral silk tee, and the vest. It worked well. Thanks for the advice!</p> <p>I couldn't decide what pants to wear so I packed 4 pairs for a 5 day trip. Good thing summer clothes don't take up much space!</p> <p>It was close to 80 today in New Haven and beautiful. Flowering trees, warm breezes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes/page/2#post-1914627 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 21:04:14 +0000 Elle 1914627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Of the toppers, I like #2 best - edgy but with authority. I also love the floral tee and your new everlane silk shirt.&nbsp; But everything really looks good on you. The only one I'm hesitant about is white oxford, which reads a bit too casual for this situation </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes/page/2#post-1914615 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 20:03:19 +0000 Greyscale 1914615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy, good point about the shirttails. Though looking at my schedule, the second day is more casual (no presentation, no fancy dinner). So maybe I'll wear a casual outfit of the white shirt and nicer jeans (not the ones in the photo) so they don't catch on that I only ever wear black. ;-)</p> <p>Also looking at the photos, I'm keeping the new silk shirt even if it's a modest splurge ($88) because it fits SO WELL and looks more professional than the edgier square one. I'll just have to wear a lot more silk this summer (and figure out how to wash them carefully). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes/page/2#post-1914605 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 19:25:45 +0000 Style Fan 1914605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations!&nbsp; And best of luck.&nbsp; So exciting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914589 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 18:11:37 +0000 rachylou 1914589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My one thought is hems - For an interview situation, I prefer the tops with straight hems. As opposed to the shirt tail hem of the first (gorgeous) white shirt... that feels a little too casual to me, even tho it’s not really. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914571 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 17:03:43 +0000 kkards 1914571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I realized that I never said Congratulations! </p> <p>love #2 and #3....</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914550 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 16:21:10 +0000 Suz 1914550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 and #3 in the last pics.

But in the end that might be exactly what I bring. (Wide leg crops, notched shirt, oxford shirt.) I’ll also bring the floral tee and one pair of black jeans (still debating which). Toppers are still a dilemma - if it weren’t an interview I’d bring the leather jacket to wear over the vest at night if needed. Maybe it’s ok. The blazer is awesome but a little dressier than I’m going for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914518 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 14:55:11 +0000 Angie 1914518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>CONGRATS. Good luck with the second round of interviews.&nbsp;</p> <p>I vote #3 in the last set of pics with the toppers - with the gillet. I like #2 next. KILLER.</p> <p>The wide crops look great. Need a two to three inch hack.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914483 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 12:57:18 +0000 Kathie 1914483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on the second interview! Of the second set of pictures, with the toppers, I really like 2 and 3. I think just a touch of white adds some memorability to the outfits. (Of the first set of pictures, I like 1, 3, 5, 13.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914482 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 12:54:07 +0000 Elizabeth P 1914482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for #2 for toppers</p> <p>As per the tops, I love the floral tee.&nbsp;&nbsp; Two everlane tops... pretty darn similar, but I think I prefer the neckline on the new one, so I vote keep!<br />Ya know, all these tops are great.</p> <p>Pants:&nbsp; Like the Madewell slim boyfriends.&nbsp; Love the R13's.&nbsp; Also like the crops... and ya know, they may not be PPL to US, but I bet most of world wouldn't look twice at the length they are now, if you needed them and wanted/needed to wait to hem.&nbsp; They break well, and look fine with the flat shoes.&nbsp; imho.&nbsp; I'd go with black jeans for htis situation, not blue.&nbsp; Sure, they may be fine, but lets go for fab.</p> <p>good luck!&nbsp; And congrats on the call back.&nbsp; I've been wondering what was going on with your interview process, so it's great to hear things are moving forward. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914481 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 12:48:37 +0000 Toban 1914481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favs are 2 and 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914480 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 12:44:52 +0000 Lynn 1914480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no clue on the appropriate clothing but wanted to say congrats on the second interview and send best wishes to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914478 Mon, 30 Apr 2018 12:25:19 +0000 jussie 1914478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm I like numbers 2 and 3 best.

KK- is correct. Weather is all over map- light sweater one day, puffer jacket the next and sweater under rain trench the next so definitely plan accordingly.<br /> You certainly have many great pieces to choose from. Suggest you bring options that lend themselves to layering and you will have all bases covered.<br /> And wishing you all the best with round two. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914226 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 20:53:46 +0000 Suz 1914226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is tough. I'd be tempted to get the Everlane jeans, TBH, just so you don't have to worry about the low waist issue. This is a problem I'm having also. As we make this switch from lower waist to higher waist, it will take some time to re-proportion.&nbsp;</p> <p>Congratulations on the interview!!&nbsp;</p> <p>And definitely check the weather. We had SNOW here this morning. Two days from now it is supposed to be 23C.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914204 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 20:00:14 +0000 madeline 1914204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo the suggestion of tee, long vest, skinnies.<br /> I love the cropped pants, like the suggestion of the flowered top with thin tank or camisole tucked in under it.<br /> Funny weather in the Northeast-cool in the morning, could turn really warm mid-day. Watch the weather forecast before you close the suitcase! Good luck in the interview! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914191 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 18:55:37 +0000 Anonymous 1914191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No suggestions from me, but boy do I envy your wardrobe. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914184 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 18:22:47 +0000 gryffin 1914184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Greyscale - if you have a long black tank or cami that you can tuck you eliminate the midriff issues.&nbsp; That is always my solution to the cropped top dilemma.&nbsp; I don't show belly skin so this works for me.&nbsp; Just a thought.&nbsp; Of a long black tank with lace bottom to contrast but that would complete and obscure if you wear your crossovers.&nbsp; I bought those jeans, love them, so unique and somehow dressy edgy perfection, although my friends are a bit conservative to appreciate them.&nbsp; Just proving must dress for myself!!&nbsp; You have great pieces.&nbsp; Always admire you picks!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914181 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 18:13:56 +0000 Greyscale 1914181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>kkards, yes, it's in New Haven. I grew up in CT but I have trouble remembering what the weather is like after so many years out here. I should consider my jacket options.</p> <p>You're right about the cold shoulder top - I removed it from the options. I think I agree about the jeans too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914180 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 18:12:44 +0000 Greyscale 1914180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gryffin, the crossovers are a strong contender. I've worn them at many interviews. Though, my original pair is somewhat faded, and my new pair still has the intense waxed finish - my ideal is somewhere in between. They also might be a little lower rise than idea for that top. But I would definitely feel both professional and myself in that outfit, if there aren't midriff issues. Will model it later today! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yet-another-round-of-interview-clothes#post-1914179 Sun, 29 Apr 2018 18:06:15 +0000 gryffin 1914179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the equipment silk tee (kicking myself I did not see that sooner) and black jeans.&nbsp; Why not your crossovers?&nbsp; Edgy and you, but different enough to seem dressy.&nbsp; Too much?&nbsp; I second the jacket.&nbsp; Throw it over your shoulders or do you have a blazer or moto with crossed sleeves?&nbsp; How does the gilet play with the pieces?&nbsp; I can't tell from the finds. </p>
