Job interview - help!

[PinkSparklyPussyCat]

I've got a job interview next week and I have no idea what to wear! I got some good advice on here back in the spring (but didn't get an interview) but we're now heading to autumn and I need your help again.

Budget wise I'm looking at M&S, Next sort of price range but I don't mind spending a bit more on shoes which absolutely have to be flat. I'm 5'6", size 18-20 and very fair. The job is for a receptionist if that makes a difference.

Im really keen on the job and want to make a good first impression so thank you in advance for any help

I have this dress and it’s great. Easy to wear and easy to dress up or down. I’ve worn it to conferences with a jacket and on the beach with flipflops.

The M&S jacket is great; very adaptable. A jacket like that over a neutral or block-colour dress or well fitting trousers with a necklace and earrings, in either gold or silver, would look great.

I’m embarrassed to say the dress doesn’t go up to my size 😢

The M&S jacket should arrive today so I’m hoping it fits ok. I’ve also got some slim fit trousers coming so fingers crossed! I’ve ordered this top in a few colours as it’ll go with pretty much anything.

Just to update this I ended up buying black trousers from John Lewis and wearing them with a top I already had and an uncomfortable pair of shoes I had in the wardrobe. I've never bought John Lewis clothes before but these are the most comfortable trousers I've had, they fitted really well and thankfully were not wide legged!

In the end I didn't get the job which was a result as it was very different to the job description. At least now I don't have to worry about trousers, only shoes!
