April 12th, 2012: Interview Time!

It's interview time and you're stressed because you don't know what to wear!  Never fear, Makayla's here!
(Sorry, I've always wanted to do that : ]  )
The basics for an interview outfit are blazers or jackets and black.  I have never been a fan of brown outfits for an interview.  You're dressed to be sophisticated and brown screams nature to me.  Black is dressy, elegant, but down to business.  I also prefer skirts and dresses over pant suits, but this is only a matter of opinion.  I would wear a pant suit if it was in the dead of winter, so I have nothing against them at all.  It's just when given the opportunity, I will take skirts or dresses over them.  Panty hose is also suggested for it, but it is a dying art, panty hose, so I won't take it as an offense if you dislike them.  
The finish touch should subtle jewelry touches.  A ring, a simple necklace, a headband.  Nothing extravagant. Just subtle.  
The note I'd like to make on the ring though is that I bought it from a fabulous local business in Winchester, VA called The Purple Fern.  I suggest to anyone who is interested in eco-friendly items, homemade crafts, or just quirky items.  Top o' the morning then to ya!
