Interview Attire

Since I have to start going on interviews very soon...like right now...I decided to find some appropriate interview attire. I had a couple of navy pant suits in my closet, but I didn't like the way any of them fit and as you know, if you look good...you feel good. So since I want to feel good when on interviews I knew I needed to shop for a dress or pants suit or something that fit perfectly.

A few weeks ago I went to Ross and there on the rack was this classic navy dress. I knew it was meant for me to purchase. It was in my size and just what I needed. See how the universe is aligning things to help me find a job. :)

Navy dress: Ross Stores - $39.99
Shoes: Macy's - a few years ago
Jewelry: Circle necklace - gift

The dress came belted with a navy belt. In the above photo, I wore the dress to church so I put on a pair of taupe slingback shoes and simple jewelry.
I think the next time I wear this dress (hopefully on an interview), I will pair it with cognac shoes and a cognac belt and maybe some bulkier pieces of jewelry.

It's been a long time (over 13 years) since I've been on an interview so I'm not exactly sure how to dress. I just figured I can't go wrong with this simple dress. I did pick up a pair of navy and black slacks from Macy's over the weekend so I can style them with a nice blouse to create a decent interview outfit.
I just plan to keep it simple, look decent and professional without bringing to much attention to my clothes. I want the focus to be on me and the skills I have to offer.
