I cannot be;ieve ot!! Interview tomorrow (well today) and I last bought a suit 7 years ago!!

[crunchie]

I went upstairs at 10 pm to decide what to wear and OH F**K! I have no suits, well except those with nearly knee length jkts that are sooooo wrong!! I have miss matching black separates, but in natural light they will look odd!!

I have just had to dash to ASDA and TESCO and buy any bog standard suit!!! Not my usual sytle but at £40 you can't complain. I have spent the last 7-8 years wearing funky separates, I have loads of fab A line skirts, nice t-shirts and cardis, But these are NOT interview fodder for a job as a recruitment consultant. I can imagine recruitment bods are totally suited and booted, not what I am about. Oh c**p do I want the job??? If I have to wear a suit day in day out. This is major!! Can I see myself in a job where I cannot wear my sequin dorothy shoes to work???? Do I want this job???

Hmmm does fashion mean that much to me taht I would turn down a job with potential of earning £40K + just for sequin shoes???? HELP ME

Thank god for 24hr supermarkets eh? Good luck. and worry about the sequins once you've got the job!

Good luck with the interview.

I so wanted to buy some Dorothy shoes last week...

Good Luck xxx

Bollox to good luck, should I take a job which compromises my wardrobe???? or not????

ha! Yes... they cant sack you after you've got the job for not dressing boring

Tis too late for a serious debate lol.

Tell me more about the Dorothy shoes...

wasnt Jayne from BB a recruitment consultant? and she had style

shoes are these I have both red and gold versions

you can still be smart and wear your dorothy shoes......surely!!??

I have dorothy shoes and I love them.....and I would wear them regardless

altho mine are flats....can't do heals at the moment

they are lovely...

Glorious.

I've seen a lower-heeled style in red, grey and a glorious teal/bluey colour. Was very tempted, but just know I wouldn't get the chance to wear them.

Maybe I'll check out the dress code

I know I could do the job, but I was gutted at having to buy a boring black suit, even DH thought I looked a bit 'blah' and he knows NOTHING about fashion.

However I am wearing my 'blah' suit with a 4" wide red patent belt for the interview, I am convinced that ONE GOOD ACCESSORY works wonders and gives you personality

anniemac I would notice and that's enough

anniemac that's what I need ideas where to get NICE suits from, I look at them all and think 'blah'

Take the job and subtly, gradually, sequin by sequin, bend the dress code rules until you and everyone else are a riot of fashionista glory?
