interview dress.... any one seen anything

[hettie]

I have an interview for a job. It's a professional healthcare setting, that may also require me to attend court (think social worker who might go to Mental health act meetings.... only that's not the job)..... It's a junior'ish job so I don't want to be too formal, nor under-dressed. I've got a tweed skirt and neutral top, but have decided it makes me look like Miss Marple . I've got a blue jersey LK Bennett dress, but it's got a dropped back, I could wear a cardi over the top but then would worry about being asked to take it off.... sigh... I've got some very smart grey wool wide legged trousers, but feel they are more 'evening do' than interview fodder....
Sooo I think I might need to get an interview dress.... If I don't get this job I'll be looking for other similar things....
I'm thinking navy blue or dark grey.... and something that I'm not going to shiver in.... I really really don't want to spend more than £50.... I'm hoping someone might have spotted something in the sales.... I'm a size 8, about 5 ft 4" and have small boobs/waist...If anyone has spotted anything in the sales I'd be really grateful if you could point me in the right direction....

Hi can I suggest you try the John Lewis website? Still a lot of sale stock and lots of different brands and free delivery over 30 quid (I don't work for them just find it v v useful!) good luck with interview

La Redoute still has some good but not to expensive models.

[hettie]

Right.... Am back and determined to find something.... Will check all links-thanks. Tethers.... Hope you haven't tempted me with something lovely but pricey

[hettie]

right.... I like the two ruched jersey options. Obviously the house of fraser one is within budget and the phase eight one not.... But the V on the house of fraser one here might be tricky.... V's and my small boobs sometimes don't work... (ponders... maybe I need a chunky necklace)...I like the red asos pencil dress.... but wonder if I quite have the nerve for it.... mmme
Oh ... and I bloody love mumsnet... you lot are wonderful

A couple more:

Topshop

Bargain Mango

HalleLouja Thankyou for the ocado code for Me & Em . I've just ordered two tulip dresses to go with my two martini ones that the old W&A thread lead me to.

[hettie]

oooh tethers... thanks so much... the mango one wins it for me.... good neck line and I think I can smarten it up black accessories....Am going to order it and if not have spotted a white stuff dress that might so as back up here

[soaccidentprone]

the mango one in lovely, and a complete bargain. the white stuff on is also great, but dry clean only so might be a pita

[HalleLouja]

Glad to be of help GypsyFloss. I have a v neck box pleat dress and it's lush.
