I got the job you guys! Hurray! :) Thank you for all of your help!</p> <p>I will say, I walked into the building and immediately saw like 6 people there in suits. I panicked a little and was really glad I went with the blazer. Turns out they were all there for a meeting, and the people I was interviewing with were in business casual (whew) but it definitely got my attention haha :) Apparently it is a more formal environment at the central office than it is at any of the branches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2412254 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 08:31:20 +0000 Madison43 2412254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I think the blue sounds nice! I love colored blazers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2412188 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 07:23:16 +0000 looch 2412188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I'd go with the royal blue blazer. I really think it's difficult to match blacks, expecially with fabric contents being different. If you want it to look like a suit, you should buy the pieces together.</p> <p>Good luck!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411849 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 19:42:20 +0000 autumnleaves 2411849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I would wear the royal blue blazer with black pants. I am happy you found something. Good luck tomorrow! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411840 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 19:33:57 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2411840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok ladies, for those of you still playing along :silly: </p> <p>I got a royal blue blazer and a black suit jacket with an off white blouse to go underneath. I like both, but the black feels a little formal and I'm afraid it won't match the pants I already bought. I'll be returning one of them. I'm leaning toward blue I think... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411753 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 18:04:48 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2411753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: with dark slacks/ skirts...yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411735 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 17:46:13 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2411735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Colorful blazer? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411662 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 16:31:58 +0000 avivoca 2411662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I'm 5'5" and have very long legs/arms and a short torso. I can't wear petite items up top because the sleeves would be too short, but I do find that I look okay in a tucked top/pencil skirt because my pencil skirts come up to my waistline (around my belly button), so it's intentional. It also highlights my smallest point, so I look slimmer because everything is hitting above my mom tummy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411569 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 15:39:29 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2411569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tinyperson: @avivoca: @looch: I am 5'7", but my legs are disproportionately long, and it makes my torso seem really short I think. I am always trying to buy longer tops, because they make me feel less stumpy (hence why tucking in my shirt always feels so awful! haha). I feel like petite sizes would be even shorter, wouldn't they? Maybe I am going about this all wrong. </p> <p>I seriously need to go on that "what not to wear" show and have someone help me :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411561 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 15:33:07 +0000 looch 2411561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I am officially "petite" in height, I am 5'4" and while I can wear petite tops, I can't do bottoms because the rise is too short in pants.</p> <p>I personally love Lord and Taylor, I have had great luck there over the years and I find that the salespeople really know their stuff. They'll pull sizes for you. I also like Macys and Nordstrom. Don't be intimidated, I get there is a ton of stuff in there, but you're looking for a specific thing so someone should be able to help you narrow your focus. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411558 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 15:30:06 +0000 avivoca 2411558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I'm the same way. In this case, I would definitely try to get a sales associate to help me. They should know the inventory well and be able to help you find something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dressing-for-an-interview/page/2#post-2411555 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 15:29:01 +0000 tinyperson 2411555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: If you have a short torso, a petite jacket in the right size might work better - I have a really short torso as well, and that usually works best for me. I can't do petite pants - they're too short, but petite tops are much better proportioned for me. </p>
