The job is in the design industry, creative/admin/customer facing job. I love this skirt, when I wear it I feel confident. If I dress it up I think it would be good choice for the interview. What do you think?

To be working in an arty industry I think it's a fitting choice!

Mammyloveswine · 16/03/2019 14:40

I would team it with a black blouse and black heels. Good luck!

Smileyaxolotl1 · 16/03/2019 14:40

Yes, as long as you dressed it up- blouse, jacket, heels for example it would look fine for an interview especially in a creative industry.

formerbabe · 16/03/2019 14:41

Yes fine

Jax07 · 16/03/2019 14:44

Well. I was thinking either white blouse/coral almost red heels or black heels and black blouse. But glad everyone seems to agree that the skirt is appropriate for an interview 😊

It's very nice indeed...may I ask where you bought it?

burritofan · 16/03/2019 14:47

That's gorgeous and totes appropes for a creative industry. Will look great with coral/red heels and any top tbh. If that shape didn't look terrible on me I would try to steal it from you, it's fab.

That's lovely ! Where is it from ?

Annietheacrobat · 16/03/2019 15:00

Stacey Solomon collection for primary

Annietheacrobat · 16/03/2019 15:01

Primark

Jax07 · 16/03/2019 15:01

It is from Primark. Although I bought it on eBay as it was sold out in the primark stores

Absolutely fine! I work in a creative industry and people wearing formal suits for interview is just never seen in my experience.

Sparklesocks · 16/03/2019 15:07

Absolutely - I think you can dress smartly for interviews without need the standard white blouse and black skirt - good luck with it!

I've got this skirt and love it 🙂 good luck with your interview!

My eyes hurt

Boysey45 · 16/03/2019 15:18

Yes it will be fine, what are the brown splodges? seashells?

DarlingNikita · 16/03/2019 15:23

I like it a lot. I wouldn't wear it with black or white; that's a bit boring. A grey top would be nice if you want to stay quite neutral, or coral or a hotter pink otherwise.

TheVanguardSix · 16/03/2019 15:25

I love it! Yes! Perfect for the industry you're in. Would go nicely with a cocoa coloured jumper/ knitwear.

SimonitesSocks · 16/03/2019 15:27

It's lovely! I used to work in the advertising industry many years ago - it would have been perfect then and I guess it's still perfect now!

Jax07 · 16/03/2019 15:29

Well, I usually get very hot when I'm nervous a bit so can't wear it with jumper for the interview. I would be sweating like a horse 😳😂 I think my red shoes will add an extra bit of colour hence why I want to go with a white blouse. I don't want too many colours... might look like a parrot then.

The pattern on the skirt is a larger leopard pattern 😊

Yes it's not too casual at all. Good luck!

Amber0685 · 16/03/2019 15:32

That will look lovely OP, white blouse is also good if you sweat. Good luck!

greenpop21 · 16/03/2019 15:32

Nice crisp white shirt/blouse and flat brogues or loafers could look good.

americandream · 16/03/2019 15:33

It's cute @Jax07 Nice colour! I didn't even know Stacey Solomon designed her own stuff!

And yeah, as people are saying; it's a good choice for the job you're going for... Smile

Good luck to ya. Grin
